freeipmi ebuild specifies -j1 at line 35 for building and installing the documentation. I have -j5 in my make.conf. It looks like this may be the wrong way to specify the number of jobs to the build server. What happens is that make still uses the jobserver and as such, on my system atleast, tries to install Makefile.example to work directory before the subdirectory is created. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.emerge freeipmi 2. 3. Actual Results: Function src_install, Line 35, Exitcode 2 Specifically: /bin/sh ../../mkinstalldirs /var/tmp/portage/freeipmi-0.1.3/image//usr/share/doc/freeipmi-0.1.3/examples /bin/install -c -m 644 ./Makefile.example /var/tmp/portage/freeipmi-0.1.3/image//usr/share/doc/freeipmi-0.1.3/examples/Makefile /bin/install: cannot create regular file `/var/tmp/portage/freeipmi-0.1.3/image//usr/share/doc/freeipmi-0.1.3/examples/Makefile': No such file or directory make[3]: *** [install-data-local] Error 1 make[3]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... mkdir -p -- /var/tmp/portage/freeipmi-0.1.3/image//usr/share/doc/freeipmi-0.1.3/examples Expected Results: The ebuild maintainer intended to use make sans jobserver Example: emake -j1 DESTDIR="${D}" docdir="/usr/share/doc/${PF}" install || die "emake install failed" I used: MAKEOPTS="-j1" emerge freeipmi to overcome the error.
Should be already fixed, thanks. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 92596 ***
