 Posted: Sat May 21, 2005 1:30 pm Post subject: bash build fails in emerge --emtpytree system [solved] |
 |
|
During emerge --emptytree system, bash-2.05b-r9 failed to build. It raised an error while makeing in the readline directory. Stage 1 worked without any probs. When I tried to emerge bash allone, it failed on exact the same location, the readline dir. Out of curiousity, I emerged sys-libs/readline, and emerged bash. Then I went emerge --emptytree system again (this time with sys-libs/readline installed) Guess what: it worked... .
Now here's what I don't get: the ebuild file does not have readline in its IUSE var, neither does it have sys-libs/readline in its DEPEND var. The ebuild even says:
| Code: |
# Always use the buildin readline, else if we update readline
# bash gets borked as readline is usually not binary compadible
# between minor versions.
#
# Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org> (1 Sep 2002)
#use readline && myconf="--with-installed-readline"
|
I guess emerge bash could work or fail, but independent of the fact sys-libs/readline is installed, since the ebuild does not refer to it in any other way than stating it doesn't use it. Any idea why in this case, that does not appear to be true?
PS1: I have little or no experience in developing stuff other than java progs, so if this is a really stupid question, please don't shoot me...

Bash doesn't depend on readline - readline depends on bash.
| Code: | | emerge -pvet readline |
If you check the ebuild for readline you see the following:
| Quote: | # We must be certain that we have a bash that is linked
# to its internal readline, else we may get problems.
|
Bash uses an internally linked readline library.
BTW, IUSE does what it indicates - it uses packages, it doesn't depend on them
Dependencies are indicated by the keyword DEPEND.
You did not specify the error emerge bash produced - that means my input stops here.
Apart from this, you seem to have a seriously b0rked system anyway: no sandbox, no autoconf/automake, and no libtool.

That's the point exactly: it does not depend on readline, yet it fails to build on my system (being installed, currently progressing from stage1 to stage2, followed the book) when readline is not installed.

Well, make fails in the readline subdir, issueing the command just after:
It does not give any more information than make failed though... .[/code]

Errh, I don't think so  : just followed the book, like the other times I did this on different machines... . Once stage2 is finished, sandbox, autoconf/automake and libtool have been installed and show up in emerge --info.
Anyway: it works for now, so no problem, but I was just wondering... . Thanks for your answer! |

Stage 1 on 3, would be my first (and only) answer...

That's not an answer, that's a cop-out! 
I have the same problem with a stage 1 build. I've noticed that the hardened profile I am using has readline already activated, so I'm going to add:
app-shells/bash -readline
to my /etc/portage/package.use
I'll report back tomorrow |
