Error with emerge --update --deep world w/ dev-libs/gmp-4.2.

[dman777]

I just finished installing Gentoo on my computer. I did a emerge --update --deep world to update my system. I then got this message:
ERROR: dev-libs/gmp-4.2.2 failed
Call Stack:
ebuild.sh, line 49: Called src_compile
environment, line 2616: Called econf ;src_compile' 'src_compile'
'--localstateddir/var/state/gmp' '--disable-mpfr'
ebuild.sh, line 513: Called die
The specific snippet of code:
die "econf failed"

I am following the Gentoo Doc. for installation. So, I have not install X11 yet. I also updated my portage tree before I did this.

I don't know if this matters, but in my make.conf file I have these flags set to keep my system lite wieght: USE="-kde -gnome X jpeg tiff png"


Does anyone know why and what I should do?

Thanks,
-Darin

Please give us the error message (about 20-30 more lines of output).

You appear to have set $CFLAGS, perhaps you also need to tell GMP the
intended ABI, see "ABI and ISA" in the manual.

I hope this is read able enough.
What do you think?

post your /etc/make.conf and emerge --info output.
Also what livecd are you using and are you doing a 32 or 64 bit install?

# These settings were set by the catalyst build script that automatically

CFLAGS="-march=opteron -O2 -pipe"
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
# This should not be changed unless you know exactly what you are doing. You
# should probably be using a different stage, instead.
CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu"
MAKEOPTS="-j3"

CONFIG_PROTECT="-*"

INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard mouse"

#USE="-kde -gnome X jpeg tiff png"

I went ahead and disabled the USE flags just to see if would help but didn't.

I used the 32 bit minimum install cd.

[Nick C]

thats your problem then, your trying to use a 64 bit stage file with a 32 bit cd, this doesnt work. You need a matching cd and stage3 file. For example to install a 32bit x86 install you would need the x86 i686 livecd and stage3 file. Likewise to do a 64bit install you need both a 64bit livecd and stage 3 file.

I'd rather stay 32 bit, since all the software I want to use is 32 bit. Should I change CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" to CHOST="x86_32-pc-linux-gnu" in my make.conf? I put the "....x86_64-...." in the CHOST because I was following the gentoo wiki safe flags for my processor. Also, does this mean I need to start from scratch with install or can I just change it to 32 and do a emerge update?

Thanks,

Ya, I understand...I couldn't tell if that "x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" was just the title/syntax for my particular CPU(because it's been referred to as a 64 bit processor) or if it actually enabled 64 bit mode. Would it be best for me to reformat and re-install from scratch or can I do a emerge --update --deep world?

[SLBMEH]

The least painful approach would be to reinstall with the correct tarball. Changing the CHOST can be done, but it's generally recommended not to do so because it's a rather advanced topic and has no gain over doing a fresh install.
