Classical 'a && b || c' mistake. Hint: 'c' will be invoked when 'a' is false.
Which line are you talking about? Runs fine all the way up to the compile phase and the construct you are talking about doesn't appear in any later phases.
I confirm this bug, without USE=efi the emerge exits with the following message: /var/tmp/portage/app-emulation/xen-4.2.1-r2/work/xen-4.2.1/xen/.xen-syms.1.o -o /var/tmp/portage/app-emulation/xen-4.2.1-r2/work/xen-4.2.1/xen/xen-syms rm -f /var/tmp/portage/app-emulation/xen-4.2.1-r2/work/xen-4.2.1/xen/.xen-syms.[0-9]* ./boot/mkelf32 /var/tmp/portage/app-emulation/xen-4.2.1-r2/work/xen-4.2.1/xen/xen-syms /var/tmp/portage/app-emulation/xen-4.2.1-r2/work/xen-4.2.1/xen/xen 0x100000 \ `nm -nr /var/tmp/portage/app-emulation/xen-4.2.1-r2/work/xen-4.2.1/xen/xen-syms | head -n 1 | sed -e 's/^\([^ ]*\).*/0x\1/'` make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/app-emulation/xen-4.2.1-r2/work/xen-4.2.1/xen/arch/x86' gzip -f -9 < /var/tmp/portage/app-emulation/xen-4.2.1-r2/work/xen-4.2.1/xen/xen > /var/tmp/portage/app-emulation/xen-4.2.1-r2/work/xen-4.2.1/xen/xen.gz.new mv /var/tmp/portage/app-emulation/xen-4.2.1-r2/work/xen-4.2.1/xen/xen.gz.new /var/tmp/portage/app-emulation/xen-4.2.1-r2/work/xen-4.2.1/xen/xen.gz make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/app-emulation/xen-4.2.1-r2/work/xen-4.2.1/xen' make: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/app-emulation/xen-4.2.1-r2/work/xen-4.2.1/xen' >>> Source compiled. >>> Test phase [not enabled]: app-emulation/xen-4.2.1-r2 >>> Install xen-4.2.1-r2 into /var/tmp/portage/app-emulation/xen-4.2.1-r2/image/ category app-emulation * ERROR: app-emulation/xen-4.2.1-r2 failed (install phase): * (no error message) * * Call stack: * ebuild.sh, line 93: Called src_install * environment, line 2922: Called die * The specific snippet of code: * use efi && mkdir -p "${D}"${EFI_MOUNTPOINT}/efi/${EFI_VENDOR} || die; * * If you need support, post the output of `emerge --info '=app-emulation/xen-4.2.1-r2'`, * the complete build log and the output of `emerge -pqv '=app-emulation/xen-4.2.1-r2'`. * The complete build log is located at '/var/tmp/portage/app-emulation/xen-4.2.1-r2/temp/build.log'. * The ebuild environment file is located at '/var/tmp/portage/app-emulation/xen-4.2.1-r2/temp/environment'. * Working directory: '/var/tmp/portage/app-emulation/xen-4.2.1-r2/work/xen-4.2.1' * S: '/var/tmp/portage/app-emulation/xen-4.2.1-r2/work/xen-4.2.1' I'm compiling now with "efi" use.

Created attachment 340094 [details] Error Log The situation is worse now. It doesn't compile at all. Not just give error in installing.
Oh groan from the log. x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-ld: opzione "--subsystem=10" non riconosciuta It's like you went straight from building xen with efi to building it with -efi, but WITHOUT undoing what it took to buld with USE efi. Surely you got to read all of Bug 458160. Now let's go over this again. The efi build wants binutils{miltitarget] to build efi, which was the trigger for the Bug 458160. The point being binutils regular, i.e. binutils[-multitarget], does not have the -m feature builtin from the build and consequently harmlessly skips over all things efi. You have gone and emerged binutils with multitarget and presumably set the -m option for LDFLAGS which now sets a build of xen tuned for efi. It may surpise some that I actually spent hours in extensive testing of all this. I predicted this fiasco in the final comment. My attempt to account for this wasn't 'right'. While I got quick responses to point out, oh groan that's wrong, I am still awaiting someone to say how to do it right. The faulty attempt is now deleted and needs a substitute. Never mind about "Hint: 'c' will be invoked when 'a' is false." The use efi in the line in src_install only has an a and b anyway. It's presence is apt only install for +efi. It is after all in src_install. Accounting for -efi in src_install is closing the gate hours after the horse has bolted. What it needs is accounting for in DEPEND, (actually not RDEPEND) plus the syntax I'm yet to decipher, something close to !efi? ( >=sys-devel/binutils-2.22[-multitarget] ). However, key points; 1) reset LDFLAGS as they were with something sane like -wl,--hash-style=gnu and 2) emerge binutils -multitarget, the likely state prior to the making of an efi capable build. The build pulled a weird stunt of bailing out when LDFLAGS was added to rather than subsituted with -mx86_64pep. Yet another xen type mystery.

There may be multiple breakage here.. I don't know. The one problem I was trying to report (although, I realize I should've been much more clear about this) was, in fact, that simple mistake use efi && mkdir -p "${D}"${EFI_MOUNTPOINT}/efi/${EFI_VENDOR} || die (a="use efi", b="mkdir -p "${D}"${EFI_MOUNTPOINT}/efi/${EFI_VENDOR}", c="die", which will *die* as commanded whenever "use efi" is false), instead of (the likely intended): use efi && { mkdir -p "${D}"${EFI_MOUNTPOINT}/efi/${EFI_VENDOR} || die; } This broke the build on my box in the install phase. Having fixed that, everything builds fine with USE=-efi. I haven't tried building with USE=efi, since this box has a legacy BIOS only...
Created attachment 340248 [details, diff] A patch for the xen-4.2.1-r2.ebuild that fixes the boolean statement With the help of Zorry I made a patch for the ebuild that changes the boolean logic into a if statement. This way it test for a positive case instead of trying to determine +/-efi in USE.

That's the cut down form which has that weakness. (In reply to comment #8) > > With the help of Zorry I made a patch for the ebuild that changes the > boolean logic into a if statement. > > This way it test for a positive case instead of trying to determine +/-efi > in USE. ditto, even better, thx, that indeed is the more bullet proof form, committed. Ooops I forget to change RDEP to DEP, nm, needs one more step anyway which is; What I'd really like is your and Zorry's take on - DEPEND="efi? ( >=sys-devel/binutils-2.22[multitarget] ) !efi ( >=sys-devel/binutils-2.22[-multitarget] )" RDEPEND="" PDEPEND="~app-emulation/xen-tools-${PV}" This makes us all shudder. It should be DEP, not RDEP, it's a build issue. This case of USE=-efi has these 2 holes to fill; 1. Why does the valid -Wl,--hash-style=gnu make the build bail out if -mx86_64pep is added to LDFLAGS? Why does it demand substituting it? I suspect Zorry has already picked the key, the build uses an alternate syntax to -Wl. Why or how one is better than the other I neither know nor care, they just need to be made to get along, to be made confluent! 2. The deps. Simply, for -efi or !efi, binutils need be built -multitarget, otherwise you get Bug 458160. thx to all who have contributed.
RDEPEND="efi? ( >=sys-devel/binutils-2.22[multitarget] ) !efi? ( >=sys-devel/binutils-2.22[-multitarget] )" seems to have the desired effect...
