Hi,
I've searched the forums and bugzilla and haven't found that anyone else has reported the issues I'm having when trying to merge mythtv: neither the stable nor the unstable versions will emerge due to sandbox violations.
Here's what the log looks like: | Code: | cat /var/log/sandbox/sandbox-media-tv_-_mythtv-0.20_p12376-27722.log

So, the ebuild wants to install to /lib, /include, /share, rather than /usr/lib, /usr/include, /usr/share. And indeed, that's just what it does if installed with FEATURES="-sandbox", which I did just to see (and then had to clean everything up manually since emerge --unmerge did not remove any of the files in those locations).
I'm quite sure this is not intended behavior, if only because the init script, /etc/init.d/mythbackend, looks for the mythbackend binary under the /usr prefix.
In an earlier attempt, the emerge process also complained that there was no user "mythtv." I did add such a user, following the instructions from the gentoo-wiki: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Setup_Kernel/System_for_MythTV#Adding_the_MythTV_user.
Mythtv-themes do not install at all. The ebuild dies stating that "./configure" needs to be run, as if it's not finding that in the portage work directory?
Again, I'm surprised not to have found any other reports of this, even though it occurs with the stable ebuild as well as the unstable one. Is there something I need to try changing before I open a bug to report the problem? Thanks!

Still having problems? I'm perhaps not the best person to help out, but seeing as you have no relplies so far....

Perhaps the sandbox log does not take the configure prefix into account? The ebuild does have /usr specified:
| Code: |
src_compile() {
local myconf="--prefix=/usr
|
In p12376, the error should be: 'Problem adding mythtv user'. The wiki does not mention it, but the ebuilds now add that user themselves. Previous versions did not. The wiki doesn't mention adding the home directory, so perhaps that is part of the error you were seeing? I can't remember if useradd creates the home directory by default or not...

IIRC, a compatible version of the mythlibs need to be installed before you can install plugins, once you've got myth successfully installed this should clear up.

I never had problems with the stock ebuilds personally. You say there's sandbox errors, but I'm not clear on exactly where things are going wrong. What's your error output when you try to run emerge mythtv? |

Hi, and thanks for responding. 
The error I've been experiencing is that mythtv does not emerge. The merge stops after everything is compiled, at the point when it is attempting to install the new files into my root file system. The console output is a list of access violations.
These access violations are recorded in the sandbox log that I posted, too - it's exactly the same as what is printed to the CLI when the merge fails. So really, that's all the information I have at this point.
It doesn't make any sense to me, because I too see that the ebuild is designed to install under /usr. I haven't changed anything at all in the ebuild. I've tried re-syncing portage. I'm able to merge other things with no problems. I don't have any unsupported overlays installed, just a few ebuilds in my own local overlay. Revdep-rebuild has nothing to do and no config files need to be updated. Thus, I'm thinking that my Gentoo install is healthy enough.
In other words, I'm stumped.
Here's the bug I opened (no responses yet). |

Thanks, slycordinator, that was it.
As Cardoe points out in the bug you linked, the problem occurs whenever a custom PORTAGE_TMPDIR is set in /etc/make.conf. I changed my PORTAGE_TMPDIR back to the default and mythtv installed with no problems.
I didn't find the bug on bugzilla because I was looking only for open bugs and that one was closed as "RESOLVED CANTFIX". So now I know to look for that status when searching in the future. Thanks again, slycordinator!
I'm thinking it might be useful if the mythtv ebuild could explain why it was failing...I don't know if ELOG gets called early enough in the process to include something like that or if another kind of "die" message would be better and possible? I'll try to look into that, but if any one has any ideas I think it would be nice to include a possible fix when I respond to my bug.
Also, does anyone happen to know if there is a way to set things up so that portage will use the default PORTAGE_TMPDIR only when compiling mythtv? I installed qt just for mythtv (I'm planning to try using it with a GNOME frontend, gshowtv) and I prefer to have all my portage stuff happen on my portage partition if possible, which is why I use a custom PORTAGE_TMPDIR. I don't know if it's possible to tell portage to change the variable depending on the package, and I've never had a reason to try something like that before. |

| Add ALL to the beginning of your search and it'll search for resolved/closed bugs as well. |

Yes, live and learn.
All the same, it's nice that I've been able to use Gentoo for a year without ever needing to learn that one before now! |
