Since the clean-up of the ebuild with pulseaudio-15.0 a "||die" has been added to the end of the unifdef command used to generate the init.d script. This always triggers irrespective of success or failure. The reason for this is obvious when looking at the unifdef man page: EXIT STATUS In normal usage the unifdef utility's exit status depends on the mode set using the -x option. If the exit mode is zero (the default) then unifdef exits with status 0 if the output is an exact copy of the input, or with status 1 if the output differs. If the exit mode is one, unifdef exits with status 1 if the output is unmodified or 0 if it differs. If the exit mode is two, unifdef exits with status zero in both cases. In all exit modes, unifdef exits with status 2 if there is an error. The exit status is 0 if the -h or -V command line options are given. -- As can be seen unifdef only exits with status 0 by default if the output is an exact copy, which obviously isn't going to be case! Either unifdef should be called with "-x2" or die should be triggered if the exit code is 2.
Thanks, could you add your analysis to the other bug? *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 805488 ***
