Hello:
Today when i try to emerge GIMP (1.2.4) i get a error.

Code:
libtool: link: cannot find the library '/var/tmp/portage/jpeg-6b-r3/image/usr/lib/libjpeg.la'


It sounds strange because the jpeg library is installed. I don't know why the gcc uses this strange path: '/var/tmp/...'.

Before the crash i see that the required file (libjpeg.la) is in /usr/libjpeg.la I update the library cache but it does not works.

Does anybody have a fix to this problem?
Thanks for all :)

I create a link
Code:

cd /var/tmp/portage/jpeg-6b-r3
mkdir image
mkdir image/usr
mkdir image/usr/lib
ln -sf /usr/lib/libjpeg.la image/usr/lib/libjpeg.la

and it works :)
But this solution seems like killing flyers with a gun :oops:

strange. I get this same problem when trying to emerge transcode.
Code:

grep: /var/tmp/portage/jpeg-6b-r3/image/usr/lib/libjpeg.la: No such file or directory
/bin/sed: can't read /var/tmp/portage/jpeg-6b-r3/image/usr/lib/libjpeg.la: No such file or directory
libtool: link: `/var/tmp/portage/jpeg-6b-r3/image/usr/lib/libjpeg.la' is not a valid libtool archive
make[3]: *** [import_im.la] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/transcode-0.6.11/work/transcode-0.6.11/import'

!!! ERROR: media-video/transcode-0.6.11 failed.

!!! (no error message)


I guess I'll try the linking trick as well. Although I'm curious as to what caused this...
