dev-qt/qttranslations fails to emerge

[Sekuhara]

After a resync today, dev-qt/qttranslations-4.8.6-r1 fails to emerge because ... apparently it can't delete a file

At the end of the emerge process I receive:

Code: Select all

Is anyone experiencing a similar issue?

Q&D workaround - I edited /usr/portage/eclass/qt4-build-multilib.eclass , line 473 and commented out "|| die", so at least the installation could continue.

Please report as a bug!

It's already fixed in the tree - it was was minor thinko in the eclass.

Thank you for this, this fixed it for me as well!

I would like to learn how you figured out the solution to this.

What was the process in finding, hinting out the location and line leading up comment out "|| die" ? Thank you

I simply searched for the exact string reported in the error message:

Code: Select all

The specific snippet of code: 
      rmdir "${D}/${QT4_LIBDIR}"/pkgconfig

=>

find /usr/portage -exec grep -nH 'rmdir "${D}/${QT4_LIBDIR}"/pkgconfig' {} \;

[MafiaJoe]

I typed in exactly as you shown me, command didn't execute. How did you get it to work?

Code: Select all

find /usr/portage -exec grep -nH 'rmdir "${D}/${QT4_LIBDIR}"/pkgconfig' 
find: missing argument to `-exec'

That is not how he searched for it. open that file in a text editor, search for that line with in the editor, then add the #

What I am asking, is how it was figured out. I want to learn how, what the process was to fixing this? Not just the answer. I already fixed it.

How did OP know to look in that path? which was /usr/portage/eclass/qt4-build-multilib.eclass ?

oops sorry, forgot to add {} \; at the end

it has to be

Code: Select all

find /usr/portage -exec grep -nH 'rmdir "${D}/${QT4_LIBDIR}"/pkgconfig' {} \;

This means - search files in /usr/portage and for each of them, search for the string. -n option of grep prints the line numbers, -H prints filenames.

Or better yet, add "{} +" instead like so:

Code: Select all

find /usr/portage -exec grep -nH 'rmdir "${D}/${QT4_LIBDIR}"/pkgconfig' {} +

Difference is: \; means, grep is executed for every single file. with +, find collects some number of filenames and then grep is executed for all of them only once.

(whole portage tree in cache: find ... + -> 1.6s real time, find ... \; -> 1 minute + 50s real time.)

Why not telling find to just look for ebuilds ? :

Code: Select all

 find /usr/portage -type f -name '*.ebuild'  ...
