Description Christian 2005-05-03 17:57:03 UTC
compiling svgalib-1.9.21 fails, and although i am not too familiar with the .ebuild files yet, i've tracked it down to this line in /usr/portage/media-libs/svgalib/svgalib-1.9.21.ebuild:

    # Don't strip stuff, let portage do it
    sed -i '/^INSTALL_PROGRAM/s: -s ::' Makefile.cfg

this leads to this line in Makefile.cfg:
INSTALL_PROGRAM = install -c-m 755 -o root -g bin 

later on, "make install" and thus emerge fails, because of the missing space between "-c" and "-m 755". not being a sed guru either, i'd change the .ebuild line to something like this:

    # Don't strip stuff, let portage do it
    sed -i 's/install -c -s -m 755/install -c -m 755/' Makefile.cfg

when i do this, svgalib compiles and installs fine.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge media-libs/svgalib
2. (wait)
3. see the error:
   install: invalid option -- -
   Try `install --help' for more information.



Actual Results:  
error showed up:
install: invalid option -- -
   Try `install --help' for more information.

emerge exits.

Expected Results:  
install should be successful, emerge should go on.
