Does dev-util/esvn indeed create directory "share" in root folder / , not /usr?
Comment 3 Alin Năstac (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-02-09 10:40:48 UTC
Of course it creates it in /usr, but in your case the ebuild is trying to write outside its sandbox. Packets are installed in $D (/var/tmp/portage/....) and only afterwards those images are merged into the system.
Your system seems to borked. Please try to fix your own problem.

> Of course it creates it in /usr

It's very strange because all other packages have been emerged fine (for example subversion, eclipse and so on). Can you give me some point to rtfm for playing around this problem? What I have to check first, what I can change? How ebuild configuring paths (/usr/src/portage/dev-util/esvn-0.6.11/image/../../../../../../share) and how that can be fixed?
Comment 5 Alin Năstac (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-02-10 16:23:06 UTC
"Leaving directory" line look strange to me. With your unorthodox $PORTAGE_TMPDIR, it should have been /usr/src/portage/esvn-0.6.11/work/esvn (note the absence of $CATEGORY).

Besides, "** done **" line shows that compilation has been completed successful. The ebuild died after src_compile() has ended but before ">>> Source compiled." message.

new additional information:
I've played around with this problem some time and here are my results.

if PORTAGE_TMPDIR=/usr/src in make.conf -> emerge failed with above error

if PORTAGE_TMPDIR=/usr/src/somefolder in make.conf -> emerge failed with above error

if PORTAGE_TMPDIR=/usr/somefolder in make.conf -> emerge failed with above error

if PORTAGE_TMPDIR is not set in make.conf (default /var/tmp) -> emerge is OK

if PORTAGE_TMPDIR=/tmp in make.conf -> emerge is OK

It looks like esvn is very sensitive to /usr/some_path as portage temp directory.
For other packages I've installed it doesn't matter what portage temp directory is.
Comment 8 Alin Năstac (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-02-25 10:37:06 UTC
Bug confirmed.

qt team, please help me with this. Seems that qmake creates the *.mak file stuffed with installation paths relative to the compilation directory. 

For instance, when esvn is build in /var, the esvn.mak has rules like this:
install_icons: all
        @$(CHK_DIR_EXISTS) "$(INSTALL_ROOT)/usr/share/pixmaps/" || $(MKDIR) "$(INSTALL_ROOT)/usr/share/pixmaps/"
        -$(INSTALL_FILE) "images/esvn.png" "$(INSTALL_ROOT)/usr/share/pixmaps/"

When is build in /usr, the esvn.mak rules looks like this:
install_icons: all
        @$(CHK_DIR_EXISTS) "$(INSTALL_ROOT)../../../../../../../share/pixmaps/" || $(MKDIR) "$(INSTALL_ROOT)../../../../../../../share/pixmaps/"
        -$(INSTALL_FILE) "images/esvn.png" "$(INSTALL_ROOT)../../../../../../../share/pixmaps/"

Question is, can I disable this qmake behavior? 
Comment 9 Alin Năstac (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-03-08 12:54:46 UTC
I'm sorry, but I cannot fix this; qmake generate the mak filled with paths relative to the compilation directory. However, the good news is that upstream plans to move to QT4. This version of QT don't have this bug (paths will be preserved between .pro and .mak file). Till then, use a more appropriate PORTAGE_TMPDIR, such as /var/* or /tmp/*.
