Well, since I just (literally, 10 minutes ago) emerged
mozilla-firefox-1.0.6-r2, and had no problems on a 32-bit system, I must
suspect that this is a 64-bit issue.
In that regard, I see at least one thing in your emerge info that has
been called into question for 64-bit users in recent threads:
CFLAGS="-march=k8
I am, of course, not a 64-bit user, so I don't know anything about this,
but I have seen several responses to similar questions that suggest that
the correct flag is
march=amd64
Oh, and despite what Patrick said, I think you were right to post here
first-- no need to clog up b.g.o with what might be a configuration
problem and waste developer's time closing an invalid bug.
I think it's always wise to try to make sure that it really is a bug
before posting it.
And it seems to me that if there is a bug, it might be a *documentation*
bug (because the other person who mentioned using march=k8 said that
that was the recommendation of the docs, but that seems to no longer be
the case, if people using this flag are regularly receiving compilation
errors).

Do you remember where you've seen this? I have searched devel, user and
amd64 without finding any relevant posting. I choose "march=k8" due to
the recommendation of the handbook.

Looking at gcc's info page, there is no amd64 target. The only ones I
can find that seems reasonable are k8 and athlon64. I use k8 myself and
haven't had _any_ problems with it.

I really don't see how this could be a configuration problem, since it
would have complained about an erroneous compilation flag if it was the
k8 thing that was at fault... And missing files (which the compilation
error points at) sounds pretty much like a valid bug to me...

Of course, but looking at the ordinary response from developers to these
kind of emails, I'd guess that b.g.o is where they want the report, not
here...

Documentation bug? Not recommended by the docs any more?
You might want to actually try to find information about the subjects
you respond to.
Straight out of the AMD64 Gentoo Handbook:
"AMD64 users who want to use a native 64 bit system should use
-march=k8"
Combining that cite with the information from the gcc info page, I'm
pretty sure it's not a "documentation bug".

Errors building packages are *frequently* configuration problems.
Anybody who has followed this list for at least a month knows that.
Thus, this is a perfectly valid forum to get feedback on an issue before
filing a new bug report on b.g.o. Bug reports that are not really bugs
just waste valuable developer time.
That said, I do agree that this looks like an AMD64 specific bug.

"Here" being gentoo-user, there are not a lot of developer responses
here. On gentoo-dev, you are correct, the standard response is "file on
b.g.o." But I still maintain that it is better to ask here (or on the
forums, or on #gentoo) first.

Hold on...the -march thing would be an easy mistake to make for those of
us who don't run AMD processors, and are just trying to help. Afterall,
the platform keyword is "amd64". And gcc info says that k8, opteron,
athlon64, and athlon-fx are all equivalent, although I would suggest
that the non-k8 options are more descriptive.

When did I say that it wasn't frequent with configuration problems
leading to failed builds? I was (and anyone really reading my reply
would realize it) pointing to this specific failed build.
And I'm just curious; how would a configuration error (that the user has
made) lead to a graphics file missing during the build? (not counting in
those "configurations" where you're yourself editing the ebuild or
otherwise fucking with depends and build options suggested by the ebuild
maintainer)

Of course, but in this case it wasn't an oversight... The poster
explicitly said that using march=k8 seemed to no longer be the
recommendation of the docs. That implies at least _some_ looking into
the subject before posting...
Since I'm myself using the specified platform and have had at least a
bit experience with it before reading the post, I was mostly irritated
of the reply since it was obvious that the poster didn't know what she
was talking about (regarding the march thing...)
Also, since the originator had posted the "emerge info" output, I
assumed that he/she was at least a bit familiar with how bug handling is
handled by Gentoo.

I already said I agree with you, that in this specific case it seems to
be a bug appropriate for reporting to b.g.o.
But looking at your original response, you said:
> I'd think that the developers would rather have that information
> posted to http://bugs.gentoo.org/ instead...
To me, Holly, and I'd bet many others, the "instead..." in that line
could only be read as telling the OP that he has posted to the wrong
place, and that we do not welcome such things here.
Plus, the OP message was very much of the "here is the output of a
failed build, what does it mean" variety. Many such posts come from
people who don't know how to recognize the actual source of the build
failure. Whether it says "missing file", "unresolved symbol", "locking
failed", or "compiler bug", they simply do not know what it *really*
means (and sometimes, not even what line contains the real problem).
Now, I don't mean to offend any users here. I don't expect everybody
running Gentoo to be a programmer or linux expert. So I will say it
clearly: if a user encounters an error in emerge that he doesn't know
what to do with, it is entirely appropriate to post here first.

No, Holly said that her advice was based on "recent threads". A recent
thread on this list involving gzip on by an amd64 user suggested trying
different march options. Now, it was _bad_ advice (sorry Holly, but it
was!), but Holly did say she doesn't use amd64 and wasn't sure.

Good. Please help educate those of us who don't have or know the amd64
platform very well! :-)

Maybe, but I still think it was pretty clear that the OP was not sure
whether the problem was an actual bug or not.

Nope. I emerged both firefox and thunderbird without issue on my AMD64
4000+ about 14 hours ago.

I use k8. k8, opteron, etc., etc. are supposed to be synonyms as I
understand it. k8 is the preferred one according to most sources I have
read but, if they are truly synonyms, I'm not sure why one should be
preferred over another.

Quite right. I doubt that it is a bug - more likely a broken system in
some way.

This seems like a continuation of the previous build problems that you have had with firefox (where we were discussing MAKEOPTS). Assuming that others cannot reproduce this (sorry, I don't have my amd64 right now), there's still something wrong with your build system somewhere. This could be a shot in the dark, but I think that you should remerge your autoconf and automake packages to see if that affects this.

Hmm, since others with similar systems cannot duplicate the problem, I
decided to capture all of the build output on my system (P4) and
compare. Jules, there is definitely something not right on your system,
but I don't know what yet. You get the following:

The "/var/tmp/portage/homedir" is wrong. On my system, I get:

Using the wrong version of autoconf/automake is the only thing I can think of that would cause this kind of thing.
What do you get if you do:
# which autoconf
# autoconf --version

Ok, I might have read a bit too much into the fact that he posted the
output of "emerge info". Not very usual in this list (from what I've
seen in the last couple of years) since most people who don't know what
line in the build failure is relevant mostly don't give much information
either concerning arch and other information that might be important to
help finding the cause.
Although... I would suggest that the OP give a more explicit "question",
since I was really not sure if it was a "anyone seen this before?", "I'm
a n00b, please solve this for me!" or a "where should I take this to get
it solved?" question.

Ok. I just make it a point of trying to find a bit more information, than
just previous threads in a user mailinglist, about the things I suggest.
But I'll try being more forgiving towards those who might not next time ;)

Ehm... now let's not take this overboard ;) I'm by no means an expert
(or even near experienced) on this arch. I'm just saying I might have at
least some information that might be more relevant than a 32 bit only
person might have...

Maybe, but I'm still inclined to give short (and sometimes
uninformative) answers to questions that doesn't really give enough
information regarding both the experience level of the person, and
especially what he/she wants help with.

Hmm... Among my USE flags is "nptlonly". Might that be a problem?

I think that I am the only one that can show the problem so you might

autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.59
Written by David J. MacKenzie and Akim Demaille.
I am trying to reemerge autoconf and automake as zac advised. BTW, the
"homedir" above is now empty, but is does still exists. It has other
permissions that the other directories. Like:
########### snip ##########
drwxr-xr-x 3 portage portage 72 Jul 21 03:05 grep-2.5.1-r6
drwxr-xr-x 3 portage portage 72 Jul 21 02:10 gzip-1.3.5-r5
drwxrws--- 4 portage portage 120 Jul 22 20:58 homedir
drwxr-xr-x 3 portage portage 72 Jul 19 21:41 linux-headers-2.6.8.1-r4
########### snip ##########
Don't know if that is significant, but is sure does look suspicious...
Best regards,
jules

Wouldn't it be a good idea on this point to reemerge coreutils or maybe
the whole of "system"?
Is the correct way doing:
emerge -e system
emerge -e system
emerge -e world
emerge -e world
? or is a single "emerge -e system" sufficient?
Thanks,

Being the OP it was a question in the line of
"Here might be a potential problem in the build but I don't know if it
is the source, my system, the ebuild or if I'm an idiot. Has anyone seen
this too?"
Sorry if I was to vague. I'll be more specific the next time :-)

Well, since world includes system, if you want to rebuild *everything*,
I would think the following should be sufficient
emerge --oneshot gcc binutils
(check gcc-config and binutils-config to ensure sanity)
emerge -e world
The above should ensure that everything gets rebuilt with the rebuilt
version of gcc and binutils.
To save some time, you could try just system instead of world. That
*should* still give you a sane build environment, but if you get many
more segfaults, I am going to start thinking that you have some hardware
problems...

Well, nptlonly seems to work for a lot of people, so I don't think that
should be a problem. I've only ever heard of it affecting old
binary-only software.
The only change I would be tempted to make to your USE flags would be to
add multilib, which would give you the ability to build/run both 32 and
64-bit applications. I don't see how this could fix your current
problems...but I did notice that Bob Sanders (one of the two WFM reports
on this thread) has this in his USE flags. Of course he also doesn't
have nptlonly, or userlocales, so who knows...

I am seeing random crashes of Evolution. The backtrace originates, as
far I know, always in libpthread, so maybe this nptlonly is a bad idea
after all?

Hmm... I am seeing "(-multilib)" when doing the emerge of gcc and
binutils, so multilib is disabled by my profile and shouldn't be enabled
manually, right?

Hi,
Don't have any new idea, but could you check if there are some
"hardened" USE-flags in your /etc/make.conf (like 'pic', 'pie',
'hardened' etc). Using some of them on a normal system may cause problems.

It is part of world. On my system it would be the 152nd package to be
rebuilt.
Technically, both gcc and binutils are also part of world, and will be
built twice with the above instructions, but since they generate just
about everything else, you want to make sure those are sane before starting.

Could you double check the symlink /etc/make.profile. AFAIK, you want
it to point to /usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/amd64/2005.0.
But read this first before changing anything:

It does:
colding@omc-2 ~ $ ls -l /etc/make.profile
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 50 Jul 19 20:22 /etc/make.profile -> ../usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/amd64/2005.0

Hmm... I am running 2005.0 (from stage1) and the only content of
2005.0/scripts is "2004.3-2005.0upgrade.sh" so I guess that I shouldn't
need to upgrade anything?

Um, nevermind. Going back to your original post:
Portage 2.0.51.22-r2 (default-linux/amd64/2005.0, gcc-3.4.3,
glibc-2.3.5-r0, 2.6.12-gentoo-r6 x86_64)
But maybe you can try to follow their "by hand" instructions for to make
sure that everything is sane for your profile.
I mean, multilib should be enabled by default, unless you are actually
linked to the /no-multilib profile...

IMO that would be reading too much out of the a single segfault. You certainly have some instability but it is most likely rooted elsewhere.

I am not, but emerge insists on (-multilib). I don't think the manual
method will work either:
########### snip #############
omc-2 ~ # USE=multilib emerge -va gcc
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild R ] sys-devel/gcc-3.4.3-r1 (-altivec) -bootstrap -boundschecking -build +fortran -gcj +gtk -hardened -ip28 (-multilib) -multislot (-n32) (-n64) +nls -nocxx -nopie -nossp -objc -static 0 kB
Total size of downloads: 0 kB
Do you want me to merge these packages? [Yes/No] no
Quitting.
########### snip #############
The existence of lib32 indicates multilib capabilities, right? I do got
both /usr/lib64 and /usr/lib32.
I think that I will let memtest86+ run overnight and see if it finds
something.
Thanks,

Hi,
No experience with 64-bits, but a USE-flag in () means not supported by
the profile. Have you changed profiles?

How about /emul/linux/x86/lib?
Argh, I don't get it. /u/p/p/default-linux/amd64/2005.0/use.mask
contains "multilib", but with a comment stating it is forced on when
MULTILIB_ABIS is defined, and make.defaults has MULTILIB_ABIS="x86 amd64".
Can any AMD64 users shed some light on this please?

Because they may not always be synonyms? In that case, choosing the most
generic of the currently synonymous options is least likely to cause
breakage later.

multilib can be, or it used to be able to, turned off so that only 64-bit versions of the
libs get built.
Normally, it should be turned on and set in the USE string, for most folks on a x86_64
platform. But, on a system without multilib, turning it on means that, as a minimum an -
emerge -uDav --newuse system
will need to be performed to rebuild gcc, glibc and all the base system libs so that the following
get created -
/lib64
/lib32
/usr/lib32
/usr/lib64
and a few other items.

All of those are present on my system, but I am still seeing
"(-multilib)" when I do e.g. "emerge -va glibc".

Hi Bob,
Looking back at your previous post, I see you are still using the 2004.3
AMD profile? Have you tried to upgrade to the 2005.0 profile? Does
2004.3 seem stable, and would you recommend that Jules downgrade to that?

If the poster being referred to is me, that wasn't what I meant to say,
or rather what I meant to be *understood*-- what I meant was that
apparently the Handbook recommends using the k8 flag, but people using
that flag seem (and I stress "seem", as I don't follow this issue that
closely, naturally) to be running into problems, whereas those using the
amd64 flag are not (or at least not the same problems).
Now, I don't know the truth of the matter, but that would lead me to
suspect that there could be *outdated information in the Gentoo
documentation* (thus, a "documentation bug"), which, if those affected
can verify, should perhaps be submitted.
Sorry for the confusion.
Holly

No as it hasn't been set up for the migration. Or should I say cleanly setup. The real
profile will arrive sometime between 2005.1 and 2005.2, it memory serves. I haven't
seen it discussed on the Gentoo-amd64 mailing list in awhile now.
