ebuild utility fails to finish 'rpm' command after compiling (while packing rpm-package) if the package directory contains no files subdirectory. If the files subdirectory exists, it packs the archiv correctly.

What version of tar? 1.24? Does downgrading to 1.23-r3 help? Duplicate of bug 342735?
*downgrading to 1.23-r4, sorry

(In reply to comment #1) > What version of tar? 1.24? Does downgrading to 1.23-r3 help? Duplicate of bug > 342735? > No. Current stable tar (app-arch/tar-1.23-r2, last sync this monday, today sync prompted it status).

do you have rpm & rpmbuild installed ? if not, this isnt a bug in portage. you need to install rpm if you expect to be able to build rpms.
Excuse me, I was a little bit mistaken. Oryginally the bug was taken on my home PC. Where I've already built rpm's And after that, before report, I've reproduced it on my workstation. On my workstation app-arch/rpm really wasn't installed. After I've installed it, I've the app-arch/tar rpm was packed, but media-sound/mp3unicode failed with the same error: tar: /usr/portage/media-sound/mp3unicode/files: Cannot stat: No such file or directory
This should fix it: http://git.overlays.gentoo.org/gitweb/?p=proj/portage.git;a=commit;h=142f30000454ac002334ebbecc3ad4010b64e796
This is fixed in 2.1.9.24 and 2.2.0_alpha3.
thanks
