[gentoo-user] Can't emerge xorg-6.8.2-r2 under Gentoo 2005.1

[Jamie Dobbs]

I am trying to build Xorg on a newly installed 2005.1 system and get the
following output:

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=../../../exports/lib
XLOCALEDIR=../../../exports/lib/locale  ../../../exports/bin/mkfontscale

I have searched Bugzilla but can't see any references to the error I am
experiencing, can anyone point me in the right direction?

Jamie,
   I don't know anymore how to tell what profile I'm running under but
there certainly isn't a general problem with xorg-x11 on my laptop
here:

flash ~ # emerge -pv xorg-x11

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild   R   ] x11-base/xorg-x11-6.8.2-r2  -3dfx -3dnow +bitmap-fonts
-cjk -deb ug -dlloader -dmx -doc -font-server -insecure-drivers +ipv6
-minimal +mmx +nls - nocxx +opengl +pam -sdk +sse -static
+truetype-fonts +type1-fonts (-uclibc) -xpr int +xv 0 kB

Total size of downloads: 0 kB
flash ~#

flash ~ # emerge -pv glibc

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild   R   ] sys-libs/glibc-2.3.5  -build -debug -erandom -hardened
(-multilib) +nls +nptl +nptlonly -pic (-selinux) -userlocales 0 kB

Total size of downloads: 0 kB
flash ~ #

Doubt this helps much. Hope oyu get it figured out.

Good luck,
Mark

Thanks Neil. It seems that this specific command doesn't give me a lot
of information:

mark@dragonfly /etc/make.profile $ ls -l /etc/make.profile/
total 12
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root 4096 Jan 21  2005 2.4
-rw-r--r--  1 root root  679 Mar 28 14:35 packages
-rw-r--r--  1 root root  343 Dec  3  2004 parent
mark@dragonfly /etc/make.profile $

However within the packages file I see this:

# $Header: /var/cvsroot/gentoo-x86/profiles/default-linux/x86/2005.0/packages,v
1.3 2005/03/28 22:09:18 wolf31o2 Exp $

So I guess this machine is 2005.0, as most likely are most of my other
machines. Sorry Jamie - no help here.

Thanks,
Mark

Try it without the trailing slash:
ls -l /etc/make.profile

Yes, it does, but it still didn't tell me what profile I'm running:

mark@flash ~ $  ls /etc/make.profile/
2.4  packages  parent
mark@flash ~ $

where as 

mark@flash ~ $  cat /etc/make.profile/packages | grep profile
# $Header: /var/cvsroot/gentoo-x86/profiles/default-linux/x86/2005.0/packages,v
1.3 2005/03/28 22:09:18 wolf31o2 Exp $
# please refer to ${PORTDIR}/profiles/base/packages
mark@flash ~ $

seems to say 2005.0 which is consistent with the most recent CD I've burned.

Thanks,
Mark

Given the responses so far I think I might have to try a fresh install,
this time using 2005.0 as this bug may well be limited to 2005.1

Yes sir! That works. Thanks. (That last slash makes a big difference!)

You know, that's very weird, Mark-- on my system


 ls -l /etc/make.profile
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 46 jun 17 03:33 /etc/make.profile ->

Perhaps your /etc/profile symlink is improperly created?

Hi Holly,
   Ugh...what time is it there? 4 or 5AM? 

   Try both versions

ls -l /etc/make.profile
ls -l /etc/make.profile/

Yeah (6 am, now). I couldn't sleep.

and yes, with the trailing slash, I get the same results as you

 ls -l /etc/make.profile/
totaal 8
drwxr-xr-x  2 portage portage 120 jan 21  2005 2.4
-rw-r--r--  1 root    root    679 mrt 29 00:35 packages
-rw-r--r--  1 portage portage 343 dec  3  2004 parent

... but that makes sense to me, because the first command is ls-ing the
symlink only (thus gives the properties of the symlink, as ls always
does if you specify a single file), and the second command (with the
slash) is ls-ing the contents of the symlink, which in this case happens
to be a folder.

I think I thought that you were getting the contents when you weren't
ls-ing the folder, but only the symlink.

I should probably get some sleep, then, huh?

I didn't realize that until this thread. Still it's not natural to me,
but clearly it seems to work which is cool.

Yeah, sounds that way. Heck, even I'll be doing the same in an hour or
two, but that will jsut be 11PM. Boring guy here tonight.

You still haven't run "this specific command". The command I gave was 
"ls -l /etc/make.profile" not "ls -l /etc/make.profile/" or 
"ls /etc/make.profile/"

Sorry Neil. I did eventually see the difference. The trailing slash
was generate using bash completion. I didn't, at the time, understand
that it mattered, although it clearly does.

Thanks

It does, because the trailing slash follows the link, without it you list
the link itself. This is why cut and paste can be better than
completion :)

Is there another word for synonym?

The apparent solution to this, according to Bugzilla bug #48895

http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=48895 is to "Try rebuilding freetype with -fno-strict-aliasing" - how do I go about doing this?

Thanks

It sounds like something you'd temporarily add to the compiler flags
in make.conf. Remember to take it back out if you do it that way. Also
consider making absolutely sure that you are only building xorg-x11 if
you do that.

There's likely a way to do it at the command line also. man emerge,
etc., to figure that out I suppose.

Good luck,
Mark
