17 can you please check if your usr/lib/portage/bin/misc-functions.sh
18 contains:
19
20 # Make sure people don't store libtool files or static libs in /lib
21 # on AIX, "dynamic libs" have extention .a, so don't get false
22 # positives
23 [[ ${CHOST} == *-aix* ]] \
24 && f=$(ls "${ED}"lib*/*.la 2>/dev/null) \
25 || f=$(ls "${ED}"lib*/*.{a,la} 2>/dev/null)
26
27 Unless there is something wrong with that code which I don't see right
28 now, I cannot see why it still complains about the .a file for you...
