[gentoo-dev] ed emerge failure

[gentoo-dev] ed emerge failure

[Daniel Parker]

Hello again!

I am in the "emerge system" portion of an rc6-3 install and the following
occurs:

ed fails on compile with the warning (from memory) makeinfo - no such
command...

Also I get lots and lots of info warnings (failures) during both bootstrap
and emerge system.

I have just restarted the emerge (reissued "emerge system"), will report
back on success/no success.

Daniel Parker

p.s. After all is complete, can I just "emerge ed"?

p.s.s. Thsnks

Yes.  And please make a note of and report all instances of "makeinfo -- no
such command" errors you can find.  They are caused by a missing
"sys-apps/texinfo DEPEND in their respective ebuilds, and are now showing up
because changes in other dependencies have significantly changed build order.
If you can, make a big list of makeinfo-deficient ebuilds and then post it
here.  Thanks! :)

Hello,

I think the rest of the "emerge system" went ok....

The process stopped on:
Regenerating GNU info directory index....
install-info: menu item "Readline" already exists, for file readline

Is this correct?

Daniel Parker

p.s going to sleep now, will try again in the morning.....

Yes, these install-info errors are perfectly normal.
