I've been trying to install XFree86 4.2.1-r2 on my new iBook for a while but it keeps dying at the exact same spot after four attempts. The error is as follows:

Code:

In file included from ../../../programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/common/xf86.h:17,
                    from xf86vmode.c:47:
../../../programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/common/xf86str.h:621: parse error before `.'
../../../programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/common/xf86str.h:1010: warning: This file contains more `}'s than `{'s.
In file included from xf86vmode.c:47:

!!! Error: x11-base/xfree-4.2.1-r2 failed.
!!! Function src_install, line 209, Exitcode 2
!!! (no error message)



Make flags are:
Code:

CHOST="powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu"
CFLAGS=" -02 -pipe -mmultiple -mstring "
CXXFLAGS=${CFLAGS}


If there's any additional info you need, please let me know.

maybe your use flags could cause problems?

I saw on the gentoo-ppc-user mailing list somebody had the same problem with an imac. you might check the archive and see if he posted a fix or email him.

also, you could try cleaning out /var/tmp/portage, install & setup ccache, and try it again. (ccache will just make it go faster on the next attempt. but cleaning out /var/tmp/portage will at least clean out the source tree that failed)
