Bug 306121 – app-portage/gentoolkit-0.3.0_rc9: 'equery size' crashes if any of a package's files are missing

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Alec Meyers 2010-02-20 22:40:57 UTC]

Sometimes there are reasons to delete certain files installed by a package - for instance, if I enable splitdebug, and I no longer need the debug information, I can safely delete the debug files.

However, in the latest version of gentoolkit (0.3.0_rc9), equery crashes if it does not find a file:

# equery size openoffice
