1 Heya,
2
3 There is a problem with the latest emerge of KDE3-base. I tried it and it
4 would have fixed my problem, however I had already created the emptydir, as
5 listed at the bottom of the emerge, during my last emerge.
6
7 mkdir ${KDEDIR}/share/templates/.source/emptydir
8
9 It appears that it will not check to see if it is already there and then will
10 fail on the install at the last line with:
11
12 mkdir: cannot create directory `/usr/kde/3/share/templates/.source/emptydir':
13 File exists
14 !!! pkg_postinst() script failed; exiting.
15
16 The good thing is that it will accept the install as complete and won't be
17 part of the upgrade options again :)
18
19 Just so you know... :)
