[gentoo-dev] wierd problem with ebuild

[Henti Smith]

Hi there 

I'm busy writing an ebuild for moonlight 3d modeler .. it's pretty cool :) 
anyway .. 

when executing ebuild /path/moonlight-0.5.5.ebuild install I get this

>>> Install moonlight-0.5.5 into /var/tmp/portage/moonlight-0.5.5/image/ category media-gfx
/bin/sh: -c: line 1: syntax error near unexpected token `32563(D'
/bin/sh: -c: line 1: `mkdir -p 32563(DESTDIR)/usr/lib/moonlight'
make: *** [/usr/lib/moonlight] Error 2

!!! ERROR: media-gfx/moonlight-0.5.5 failed.
!!! Function src_install, Line 2, Exitcode 2
!!! (no error message)

I'm not sure at all what the token "32562" stuff is ... anybody have a clue ?

on closer inspection of the Makefile ... this is where the problem seems to come in 

installdata:
    @mkdir -p $(DESTDIR)$(prefix)/bin
    @mkdir -p $(DESTDIR)$(prefix)/etc
    @mkdir -p $(DESTDIR)$(prefix)/share/moonlight/database/GEOMETRIES
    @mkdir -p $(DESTDIR)$(prefix)/share/moonlight/database/HIERARCHIES
    @mkdir -p $(DESTDIR)$(prefix)/share/moonlight/database/IMAGES
    @mkdir -p $(DESTDIR)$(prefix)/share/moonlight/database/MATERIALS
    @mkdir -p $(DESTDIR)$(prefix)/share/moonlight/database/PROJECTS
    @mkdir -p $(DESTDIR)$(prefix)/share/moonlight/database/SCENES
    @mkdir -p $(DESTDIR)$(prefix)/share/moonlight/database/TT_FONTS
    cp moonlightrc $(DESTDIR)$(prefix)/etc/
    cp moonlight $(DESTDIR)$(prefix)/bin/
    chmod +x $(DESTDIR)$(prefix)/bin/moonlight
    cp $(VPATH)/../tt_fonts/*.txt $(VPATH)/../tt_fonts/*.ttf $(DESTDIR)$(prefix)/share/moonlight/database/TT_FONTS

I'm still not sure how that translates to 32562 .. 

anybody else wanna have a crack at this ... ? 

mail me .. I'll send you my current ebuikd .. it's dirty .. but it compiles at least ;PPPP ehe 

another question .. if the source untar's into a straight diretoiry without version info .. 
is it ok if I change S=${WORKDIR}/moonlight ?

Looks like the leading dollarsign is somehow being translated into the
PID of the shell process, though I don't know how that is from the
Makefile snippet.  Normally in a Makefile you would need a quadrupled
dollarsign ($$$$) for that to occur.

Try removing the @ from the start of the lines so that make will show
the command it's running.

very interresting ...

Sorry .. I'm not 100% sure which @ sign you are refering to. would you like to clarify?

In a Makefile:

blah:
	@echo hello

blah2:
	echo hello

$ make blah
hello

$ make blah2
echo hello
hello

Without the leading @ sign, make shows the commands it's running.

I'm going to try and see if I can do a "test install with just the course on an onld redhat boxlet

The fact that it doesn't announce the commands it's running means that
we may be looking at the wrong part of the Makefile.

I would ask you to send me your ebuild so I can test it locally, but...
I'm headed out in a couple minutes for a week's vacation.  If you're
still working on this when I return, then we can take another try at it.
Good luck!

this was the problem ... to get an install running .. 
I had to do "make installdata" not "make install" 

problem solved thanks :))
