paludis -i media-gfx/bootsplash-themes exits with Argument list too long Error

[linkinpark342@…]

On an attempt at installing media-gfx/bootsplash paludis exits when trying to fetch the files. the error message (after a gigantic string of .tar.bz2) failed:Argument list too long (paludis::RunCommandError?).

Steps to reproduce:

# paludis -i bootsplash-themes

I just ran into this problem with version 0.24.6 and dev-texlive/texlive-fontsextra again:

  * When installing 'dev-texlive/texlive-fontsextra-2007':
  * When running command 'sandbox /usr/libexec/paludis/ebuild.bash '/var/paludis/repositories/gentoo/dev-texlive/texlive-fontsextra/texlive-fontsextra-2007.ebuild' fetch':
  * execl /bin/sh -c 'sandbox /usr/libexec/paludis/ebuild.bash '/var/paludis/repositories/gentoo/dev-texlive/texlive-fontsextra/texlive-fontsextra-2007.ebuild' fetch' failed:Argument list too long (paludis::RunCommandError)

doesn't seem to be fixed?

It's fixed, but not in 0.24.6.
