Subject: [gentoo-devhelp] dodoc vs directories

1 It seems that dodoc recently has lost recusivity in portage master.
2
3 Several ebuilds (including in the main tree) now fail because of that.
4
5 Bug https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=356389 implies that the goal
6 is only to qawarn, not error, when passed a directory. And dodoc itself
7 seems to work that way.
8
9 But doins does not (cf:
10
11 :; grep -C3 '$x is a directory' /usr/lib/portage/bin/ebuild-helpers/doins
12
13 for the details).
14
15 Is this a bug in portage or should I submit bugs, blocking 356389, for
16 each failure?
