When "doc" is in my USE flags, "emerge gconf" (version 2.6.0, recently "x86") yields entity parsing errors, that lead to index.sgml not being created. On install, a recursive error stops the install because index.sgml is not found. Portage continues and reports a successful install. However, since the install did not actually complete, important files are not installed. For example, gconf-2.0.pc will not be installed. At the very least, this causes other builds to fail (for me, gnome-vfs-2.6.0). Running USE="-doc" emerge gconf fixes the problem. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. USE="doc" emerge gconf (ensure version = 2.6.0) 2. notice error messages during build 3. emerge gnome-vfs-2.6.0 4. notice failure because gconf-2.0.pc is not found (and does not exist on the harddrive) Actual Results: emerge gconf fails, but portage says it succeeds. (At the least) builds that depend on pkgconfig'ing gconf-2.0.pc fail. There are probably other nasty consequences too. Expected Results: Things work.
Related problem occurs for libgnome-2.6.0. In this case, the installation actually halts due to missing index.sgml. At least the error is flagged as an error. Maybe doc should be removed from IUSE for gnome-2.6 ebuilds...
please follow the bug report guidelines, we need an emerge info, also please attach an emerge log.

This looks like a serious issue. Please, someone who can reproduce this attach a full emerge log (as text/plain), so we can check out what's going on. Also, Benjamin, remember that you should always include the output from 'emerge info' in your bug reports.
Sorry... I won't have access to the machine itself for at least two weeks. Can anyone else reproduce this? Is this something that happens with every "x86" installation with USE="doc", or just mine?
I can reproduce this bug. Actually a lot of gnome 2.6.1 ebuilds have problems quith the doc keyword.

This line is in the emerge log: /bin/install: cannot stat ./html/index.sgml': No such file or directory It should fail (like libgnomecanvas, libgnome, libgnomeui do) if this happens, otherwise subsequent emerges will fail, which is harder to track down for users. I don't know why this one doesn't fail, they all use the same eclass. Could it be because it defines src_install(), this calls gnome2_src_install() but doesn't propagate any failures?
