 Posted: Tue Jul 25, 2006 12:35 am Post subject: Installing troubles - gettext [SOLVED] |
 |
|
Hello All,
I am trying to setup a new server, but it is giving me some troubles. I booted off of the 2006.0 x86 livecd, and I am following the instructions in the handbook for a Stage-2 install. I decided to use the genkernel path. The kernel compiled just fine, but when I try to emerge coldplug, I get the following error:
| Code: |
(chroot) livecd / # emerge coldplug

I tried re-emerging gettext, and that installs fine, but I continue to get the same error as above when trying to emerge coldplug. Hmm.. If I try to do a emerge -u portage, it gives a related(?) error while emerging Locale-gettext:
| Code: |

Below is my make.conf:
| Code: |
CFLAGS="-O2 -march=athlon-tbird -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe"
CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu"
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
MAKEOPTS="-j2"
USE="X alsa avi bzlib crypt cups dvd exif exiscan-acl gif gnome gtk2 jpeg maildir mmx mpeg pam samba java ssl 3dnow ncurses usb perl unicode offensive imap ldap berkdb mysql nls tcpd lmtp -ipv6"

Thank you in advance...

Try installing libintl-perl, and see if that helps.

Nope... That gives me another error about perl not being found.
| Code: |
>>> Unpacking source...
>>> Unpacking libintl-perl-1.11.tar.gz to /var/tmp/portage/libintl-perl-1.11/work
>>> Source unpacked.
* Using ExtUtils::MakeMaker
Checking whether we can compile the XS version ... no
=> Cannot build the XS version of libintl-perl (see 'config.log' for
=> details). This is harmless!
Checking if your kit is complete...
Looks good
Error: Unable to locate installed Perl libraries or Perl source code.
It is recommended that you install perl in a standard location before
building extensions. Some precompiled versions of perl do not contain
these header files, so you cannot build extensions. In such a case,
please build and install your perl from a fresh perl distribution. It
usually solves this kind of problem.
(You get this message, because MakeMaker could not find "/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.7/i386-linux/CORE/perl.h")

Just for kicks, I tried to try to install perl, but that gave me another gettext error:
| Code: |

I am thinking of saving my make.conf and kernel conf file and start over. Maybe I messed up somewhere. Hmm.. now, which file do i need to backup for kernel config? and then how to i use that config when i start over? I could never get that part to work. |

Stage 1 and 2 are no longer supported. It's recommende you use a stage 3 tarball.
Try emerging perl first

I was wondering the same thing too... Why are they there if they are not supported? At the very least they should be in a subdirectoy called 'unsupported' or something like that.
Anyway, I did a re-install from stage3 and it seems to be going well (just built the kernel). |

The Gentoo Handbook clearly states:
| Quote: |
I can't find stage1 information in the Gentoo Handbook
Instructions on using a stage1 or stage2 tarball are now available in the Gentoo FAQ. A stage3 installation is the only supported installation as of now.
|
The referenced FAQ entry clearly states:
| Quote: |
The Gentoo Handbook only describes a Gentoo installation using a stage3 tarball. However, Gentoo still provides stage1 and stage2 tarballs. This is for development purposes (the Release Engineering team starts from a stage1 tarball to obtain a stage3) but shouldn't be used by users
