Description Jeff Davidson 2004-11-21 06:38:17 UTC

Upgrading from 1.0 to -r2 and from -r2 to -r3 is causing problems.  When the old instance is unmerged, here's a snippet of the output:

There's more above it, but my logs don't go that far.  The browser still launches, but of course, the default theme file is gone and I'm sure there are some more issues.  If I unmerge firefox first, then the emerge goes smoothly.  qpkg -f mozilla-firefox shows the chrome files even on a faulty merge.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge =mozilla-firefox-r2
2. emerge -u mozilla-firefox

Actual Results:  
The /usr/lib/MozillaFirefox/chrome directory gets deleted.

Expected Results:  
Not get deleted.

Comment 1 Jeff Davidson 2004-11-21 06:46:27 UTC

Sorry, I forgot to mention that I've been using manually modified ebuilds in my overlay.  The only difference between the two is that I add a --enable-official-branding line to the configuration section.  I can't understand why this could cause any problems like this because the other files stay intact, but please let me know if I shouldn't do this.  If you need me to test some specific combination of upgrading (modified->modified or normal->normal) I'll be glad to.

Resolving invalid myself, I should have never posted this here.

Sorry.
