[gentoo-osx] [PREFIX] portage 2.1.11 bootstraping script

[m h]

Folks

Here's my script for trying portage.  I'm running on RHEL4 and getting
the problems I've sent earlier.  If you've got a few minutes try it
out on your computer.  Let me know if it works for you ;)

#!/bin/sh

export PREFIX=/tmp/Mar17
#this directory has portage and the ebuild tree from the wiki
#unzipped here
#it also has a copy of the normal portage profiles in "normal-profiles"

export MYBASE=/home/spike/portage
export TREE=${MYBASE}/portage-alt-prefix
export PORTCODE=${MYBASE}/portage-prefix-2.1.11
GROUP=spike

cd $PORTCODE
#./configure --prefix=${PREFIX} --with-user=`whoami`
--with-group=${GROUP} --sysconfdir=${PREFIX}/etc
--with-rootuser=`whoami` --with-rootuid=`id -u`
--with-offset-prefix=${PREFIX}
./configure --prefix=${PREFIX}/usr --with-user=`whoami`
--with-group=${GROUP} --sysconfdir=${PREFIX}/etc
--with-rootuser=`whoami` --with-rootuid=`id -u`
--with-offset-prefix=${PREFIX} --with-wheelgroup=${GROUP}
--with-wheelgid=`id -g`
make
make install

cd ${PREFIX}
mkdir -p usr/portage
cp -r ${TREE}/* usr/portage

export PATH=${PREFIX}/usr/bin:${PREFIX}/usr/sbin:${PATH}

mkdir etc
cp ${PORTCODE}/cnf/make.conf etc/
#SET PREFIX in make.conf
#PREPEND PREFIX TO A FEW PLACES

mkdir -p ${PREFIX}/etc/portage


#end script

Why this first configure with the bad ${PREFIX} option?

Keep in mind, setting the PATH in the shell is only for your benefit  
and has no effect on the PATHs available to portage. Be sure to set  
this using the DEFAULT_PATH var in make.conf or your profile.

Ok, if you are having to manually create ${PREFIX}/etc, the make  
install target of portage is failing. Can you run make install again  
and log it and/or watch very carefully what is getting installed and  
where?

This directory should also have been created during make install.

debugging.  I was trying different options to try and get things working...

Yep.  I know that and am setting DEFAULT_PATH

etc/portage is being created.

This directory is NOT being created!

Going throught the output of configure, make, make install, the only
(somewhat troubling) thing I can see is this:


make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/spike/portage/portage-prefix-2.1.11/pym'
Making install in cnf
make[2]: Entering directory `/home/spike/portage/portage-prefix-2.1.11/cnf'
/usr/bin/install -c -d -m 755 -o spike -g spike /tmp/Mar20/etc

Portage does not have an arch-specific configuration for this arch.
Please notify the arch maintainer about this issue. Using generic.

/bin/sh ..//subst-install --installcmd='/usr/bin/install -c -o spike
-g spike -m 644' ./make.globals /tmp/Mar20/etc/make.globals
/bin/sh ..//subst-install --installcmd='/usr/bin/install -c -o spike
-g spike -m 644' ./make.conf /tmp/Mar20/etc/make.conf.example
/bin/sh ..//subst-install --installcmd='/usr/bin/install -c -o spike
-g spike -m 644' ./etc-update.conf /tmp/Mar20/etc/etc-update.conf
/bin/sh ..//subst-install --installcmd='/usr/bin/install -c -o spike
-g spike -m 644' ./dispatch-conf.conf
/tmp/Mar20/etc/dispatch-conf.conf
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/spike/portage/portage-prefix-2.1.11/cnf'

The Makefile in the "cnf" directory is looking for a make.globals.x86
file which isn't there.  This seems like the only fishy thing I can
spot.

Note that there was nothing written to stderr, and no warnings or
error other than that above.
