Bug 56882 – emerge gkrellmoon suceeds, but does not actually install (indeed does not even compile/link) gkrellmoon.so

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description James Dominy 2004-07-13 04:17:43 UTC]

emerge gkrellmoon runs to completion but the ebuild does not actually run a make or compile step, thus when src_install is run, gkrellmoon.so cannot be stat'ed

--- following is output of emerge ----

>>> Unpacking source...
>>> Unpacking gkrellmoon-0.6.tar.gz to /var/tmp/portage/gkrellmoon-0.6/work

---- end clip ----

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. gkrellm2 must be emerged
2. emerge -C gkrellmoon (if already emerged)
3. emerge gkrellmoon
Actual Results:  
emerge completed successfuly, but with a message to the effect of 

'could not stat: gkrellmoon.so'

No file was installed into /usr/lib/gkrellm2/plugins

Expected Results:  
gkrellmoon.so should have been compiled, and installed into
/usr/lib/gkrellm2/plugins

When I inserted 

src_compile() {
  emake || die "emake failed"
}

into the ebuild evertything worked as normal.
