When I am right this is not the case! He wrote the next sentence.

It looks to me that gentoo has done the damage, they removed the gbi part in 
the make part to where the .info files are created if I understand him right.

I give only the way how to do it himself. For him to verify all is done ok i 
give the list what and where he must find it.

In case of a error in one of the library sources for this operation gbi abort 
total. I had it in the past after the third file and only 1 and 2 where 
written, 3 was ok but not written and the fault was in the 4'th. The rest was 
not done at all. 
May be that is a bug but with wrong source input it not strange :)

I did a verify a few days back and I have a component build that is not ready 
and has somewhere a error so gbi abort fatal. removing this component and gbi 
goes 100% ok.

Rob:
There is nothing with building a rpm for distribution but one received from 
gentoo that maybe is mangled in bad way by them.
