When using sys-devel/slibtool to build utils for the initramfs it will fail when it installs a slibtool wrapper script instead of the real binary. This happens because it these binaries are installed manually instead of using the install target where slibtool and GNU libtool will place the files in different places. The URL is an upstream PR to fix this issue by dynamically finding the executable to install. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Enable slibtool for genkernel with an argument like '--utils-make="$HOME"/bin/tools/make' which is the following wrapper script for make. #!/bin/sh export MAKE='make LIBTOOL=rlibtool' export MAKEFLAGS='LIBTOOL=rlibtool' make "$@" 2. Build a kernel with genkernel where it will build utils for the initramfs such as util-linux or cryptsetup. 3. Fails when strip(1) is given text files. Actual Results: The build will install slibtool wrapper scripts instead of the actual binary which then fails when strip(1) is given a text file instead of a binary. Expected Results: It should correctly install the binary file correctly.
