 Posted: Wed Feb 09, 2005 2:01 am Post subject: Fresh install required? |
 |
|
i am currently running:
Linux ken 2.6.7-gentoo-r14 #8 SMP Thu Nov 25 12:25:52 EST 2004 x86_64 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3200+ AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux
and have ran into some pretty big walls as of late with glibc. I installed about 8 mos ago with 2004.1.
Is it worth the headaches to try nd fix these issues(I am not a programmer), or are there large enough advancements in the Gentoo amd64 build to warrant a fresh install?
Opinions?
TIA |

| Can we have some more details about these issues? What is making you think that it's glibc?[/quote] |

|
|
I had some rather nasty issues when upgrading to 2005.0. My "solution" to my issues was to manually include some paths for GCC using the GCC_INCLUDE_PATH and/or C_INCLUDE_PATH environment variable.
I then re-emerged glibc and have been a happy camper ever since...
Please do post the relevant parts of your config.log. That's the next logical debug step.

ok, i'll bite. Where is the config log????
Checking size of long double... configure: error: cannot compute sizeof (long double), 77
See `config.log' for more details.
!!! ERROR: sys-libs/glibc-2.3.4.20041102 failed.

!!! failed to configure glibc

I would have expected a larger and more informative config.log.....
Generally, the ./configure script builds a whole bunch of sample/test programs to determine the capabilities of the system it's "configuring" a Makefile for. You should have something in this config.log file which tells you, explicitly, what simple C program failed....during the sizeof computation.
You should be able to copy that code out of your log file, compile it yourself and see if you can reproduce the same error. If so, try to determine why.....and, if you can fix it there, you can fix it during ./configure.
If you get the actual C code out of your config.log, please post it and I can compile it here and tell you _how_ it compiled, successfully, on my machine.
Regards,

P.S.: You aren't using distcc are you??? |

I put the whole log here;
https://www.shreddies.ca/config.log
This is from the question you asked me about distcc:
# emerge -pv distcc
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild R ] sys-devel/distcc-2.18.3-r2 -debug -gnome +gtk +ipv6 (-selinux) 0 kB
Total size of downloads: 0 kB
Thanks for the assistance |

Are you really using gcc-3.3.4? I would expect that you would be using 3.4.3. Here's a dump of the relevant/failing section of your config.log:

I am using 3.4.3.20050110, along with gcc-config 1.3.10-r1. Whatever your issue is, it has to do with gcc configuration. What does the output of 'gcc-config -l' return, for you? Here's mine:
| Code: | [1] x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-3.3.3
[2] x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-3.4.3 *
[3] x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-3.4.3-hardened
[4] x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-3.4.3-hardenednopie
[5] x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-3.4.3-hardenednossp |
The one with the asterisk is the one that I'm currently using. At least this gives you a lot more information!
Cheers,

I tried to compile the version you quoted and all went great. After that glibc went without a hitch. Thanks for saving me a tonne of work.
Thanks for the assistance |
