[gentoo-user] python-2.5.2-r7 build failure

[Mark Knecht]

Hi,
   Any ideas? I checked disk space. That's OK. Same flags as two other
machines that built it fine.

Thanks,
Mark

You've snipped the useful part, where I've indicated above with question 
marks. You need to find the first mention of an error. That should tell you 
what the problem is, or at least point to an investigation route.

Peter,
   Thanks for the reponse. I didn't snip anything out. This is all I see:

I've now seen this on two machine, one x86, the other amd64. I'm
submitting a bug report

Thanks,
