Description Sam James archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2022-03-26 03:39:29 UTC
This package uses variables banned in some scopes. This may stop working in future versions of Portage.

$ pkgcheck scan -k VariableScope media-gfx/povray
media-gfx/povray
  VariableScope: version 3.7.0.0-r1: variable 'EROOT' used in 'src_configure', line 105
  VariableScope: version 3.7.0.0-r2: variable 'EROOT' used in 'src_configure', line 102

It looks like it's actually an error and those should be `EPREFIX` (just my 2 cents)

PS: It looks like the PR has nothing to do with the bug.
