emerge fails in configure phase with

This problem can be easily circumvented with


	mkdir -p "${BUILD_DIR}" || die

(observe the -p)

in the python_configure of /usr/portage/dev-python/pycuda/pycuda-9999.ebuild
followed by a 
ebuild /usr/portage/dev-python/pycuda/pycuda-9999.ebuild digest

then

Would please someone for christ's sake apply that trivial patch?

Comment 2 PetaMem R&D 2016-10-29 22:09:36 UTC 
Quick and dirty "fix" until upstream wakes up:

> mv /bin/mkdir /bin/mkdir2
> less /bin/mkdir

#!/bin/bash

/bin/mkdir2 -p $@


Then ... magically ...


# emerge pycuda
Calculating dependencies... done!
