Bug 400593 – app-forensics/autopsy-2.24 ebuild produces incomplete file at /usr/bin/autopsy

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Gokdeniz Karadag 2012-01-24 12:47:31 UTC]

In app-forensics/autopsy-2.24, the /usr/lib/autopsy/autopsy does not run with perl errors.

The generation part for the file is diffed below between autopsy-2.23 and autopsy-2.24. In a possible "tidying" effort, base/autopsy.base did not got included into the final file.

-       echo "#!/usr/bin/perl -wT" > autopsy
-       echo "use lib '/usr/lib/autopsy/';" >> autopsy
-       echo "use lib '/usr/lib/autopsy/lib/';" >> autopsy
-       cat base/autopsy.base >> autopsy

+       cat <<-EOF > autopsy
+               #!/usr/bin/perl -wT
+               use lib '/usr/lib/autopsy/';
+               use lib '/usr/lib/autopsy/lib/';
+               base/autopsy.base
+       EOF


Possible fix:

cat <<-EOF > autopsy
   #!/usr/bin/perl -wT
   use lib '/usr/lib/autopsy/';
   use lib '/usr/lib/autopsy/lib/';
EOF
cat base/autopsy.base >> autopsy

Reproducible: Always

Fixed in autopsy-2.24-r1 in CVS.
