The scripts installed with speech-tools that (I'm assuming) are supposed to run the corresponding application just call themselves. For example (/usr/libexec/speech-tools/wagon):#!/bin/sh # EST shared script extend() { var="$1" extra="$2" eval "val=\$$var" if [ -n "$val" ] then val="$extra:$val" else val="$extra" fi eval "$var='$val'" eval "export $var" } extend LD_LIBRARY_PATH "/usr/lib:" exec /usr/libexec/speech-tools/wagon "$@" exit 0 It doesn't even appear that the actual binaries are installed: $ qpkg -l speech-tools | grep wagon /usr/share/doc/speech-tools-1.2.3-r2/example_data/wagon.data /usr/share/doc/speech-tools-1.2.3-r2/example_data/wagon.desc /usr/share/doc/speech-tools-1.2.3-r2/example_data/wagon.tree /usr/libexec/speech-tools/wagon /usr/libexec/speech-tools/wagon_test /usr/libexec/speech-tools/make_wagon_desc Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge speech-tools 2. try to run a component application 3. Actual Results: The script recurrs until (I'm assuming) ARG_MAX is exceeded.

i haven't determined yet why, but whenever i install speech-tools-1.2.3-r2, emerge will try to install speech-tools-1.2.3-r1 the next time i issue an "emerge -puD world". as soon as i've installed speech-tools-1.2.3-r1, emerge wants to install speech-tools-1.2.3-r2. kind of a vicious circle..

That is a bug in portage. I get that here too. I have NO clue why it wants to install -r1 in the first place, when -r2 is marked stable

Created attachment 62542 [details] speech-tools-1.2.3-r3.ebuild
Could people try the speech-tools-1.2.3-r3.ebuild I posted here. It atleast installs the binaries now.
compiles on x86. the update problem seems to be solved as well, though i can't guarantee this as i still seem to have some dependencies that make emerge downgrade speech-tools when executing "emerge -puD world". it doesn't get downgraded though neither with "emerge -pu speech-tools" nor with "emerge -puD speech-tools". i thus assume it's ok.
> it doesn't get downgraded though neither with "emerge -pu speech-tools" nor with > "emerge -puD speech-tools". i thus assume it's ok. True, since RDEPEND only makes it depend on that version during emerge, and not runtime. Festival should be fixed at that point.
In portage. Thanks.
