[gentoo-alt] Mono on Prefix on Mac

[Anton Molyboha]

Hi all,

I am trying to build mono under Prefix on my Mac, and it fails - but I
think it _almost_ works and I just need a little help.

The emerge error is "invalid install_name found", the culprits being some
mcs.exe.dylib and mscorlib.dll.dylib (the build.log and requisite emerge
output are attached)
At first I thought that some linker flags are off, but then found this
snippet from the ebuild:

multilib_src_install() {
>     default_src_install
>
>     # Remove files not respecting LDFLAGS and that we are not supposed to
> provide, see Fedora
>     # mono.spec and
> http://www.mail-archive.com/mono-devel-list@××××××××××××.com/msg24870.html
>     # for reference.
>     rm -f "${ED}"/usr/lib/mono/{2.0,4.5}/mscorlib.dll.so || die
>     rm -f "${ED}"/usr/lib/mono/{2.0,4.5}/mcs.exe.so || die
> }


Looks like those files should just never get to be checked for the
install_name -- yet, apparently, the check happens before the execution
gets to those "rm" lines.

So, the question is: is there a way to make the ebuild delete the offenders
between compilation and QA checks? How can I do that -- and how do I find
the build directory in a portable way?

Thanks!
Anton
