I'm guessing the following line from the 8.18.6 ebuild is the reason: :-) |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
rm -rf ${WORKDIR}/usr/X11R6/bin/{aticonfig,fglrx_pplay} |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
My guess is that it should be added to the ati-drivers-extra ebuild, but |
| 24 |
I don't see it there, so yes, it looks worthy of a bug report to me. |
