Bug 773994 – dev-qt/qtwebengine-5.15.2: symlinked distro still causes trouble

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED INVALID

[Description piotr5 2021-03-02 15:39:21 UTC]

I have multiple distros in one filesystem, each in its own directory. it works perfectly since the current distro has symlinks pointing into the corresponding directories. only emerge gives me trouble:
just like with rust also here it is necessary to chroot into my distro before emerge since otherwise the system gets confused and fails to find the built files during install phase.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.put distro into /systemd
2.create symlinks of each directory into root
3.boot and build dev-qt/qtwebengine-5.15.2 on root
Actual Results:

Expected Results:  
chroot into /systemd before building shouldn't be necessary for successful install phase!

Not a Qt bug.
