>Description:

I built misc/calibre inside a pkg_comp started with sudo, and found 3
problems; I could "fix" the first one.  Then I found a workaround with
its own problems.

- misc/podofo depends "optionally" on lua, but apparently the configure
  script detects it anyway, even if its buildlink3.mk is not included.
  Then the build fails. So I added
  .include "../../lang/lua/buildlink3.mk"
  to pkgsrc/print/podofo/Makefile

- After that, misc/calibre proper started building, but when making the
  package ("make package") it failed like this:

####### Building extension fontconfig #######

####### Building extension msdes #######

####### Building extension cPalmdoc #######

####### Building extension podofo #######

####### Building extension pictureflow #######

Running a GUI while making a package? Whoever thought of that? Anyway, I
don't immediately see how/if that is the actual failure. The traceback
seems to suggest writing to some file which fails, but it the build runs
as root inside the chroot so that doesn't make immediate sense either.

Later...:

Another problem with calibre. I am now trying outside pkg_comp, but the
work directory ends up on NFS in my case. Maybe that causes this error:

Then, the workaround for #2:

looking closely at the output, I saw that the install process (inside
pkg_comp, started with sudo) was dropping privileges back to "rhialto".
I found out that it looked at the typical environment variables from
sudo, SUDO_UID, SUDO_GID, and SUDO_USER. When I unset these inside
pkg_comp before building (** how to automate that from the Makefile?? **)
problem #2 went away: now it could write the files it wanted.

However, installing calibre includes running it. It is a Python program,
so running it means compiling it, and if possible saving the compiled
modules. This meant that the modules from the py26-qt4 package were
compiled. The PLIST check detected these extra files and flagged this as
an error.

I haven't found a way to solve that one properly.
