[gentoo-user] app-text/build-docbook-catalog-1.19 | "there are files installed outside the prefix"

[Daniel Ibn Zayd]

This error seems to be from the ebuild script side of things, as far as my quick research into the error message....I'm on a PowerBook G4, with Gentoo Prefix installed. Is the problem the trailing "/" in the DESTDIR command?
