Problem emerging Mozilla and NSS

[foxxtrot]

I've recently reinstalled Gentoo off of the 1.4 Live CD, and went ahead and did a Stage 1 install. Things have been working fine, except that I've been unable, under any circumstances to get Mozilla or the nss packages to build. I get the same error each time, and here is the error from the output of a failed nss emerge:

make[3]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/nss-3.8/work/nss-3.8/mozilla/security/nss/cmd/shlibsign/mangle'

I've been working on this for while, and I was able to get the build closer and closer to finishing by copying libnss3.so, libssl3.so, libsmime3.so, and libsoftokn3.so to /usr/lib. These files are built by the emerges in question, so I'm not entirely sure why this shlibsign program looks for those libraries in /usr/lib, but anyway...

While the previous errors were still SegFaults, I was at least told that it couldn't find the libraries that I've copied to /usr/lib, unfortunately this did not fix the problem. Now I'm getting a SegFault without explanation. So, I went ahead and did a systrace on the command above that caused the Segmentation Fault. Here is the output from that:

I've been working at this for a while, and I'm completely at a loss. It fails on the mozilla-1.* and nss-3.8 emerges. I'm running the current specs:

AMD Athlon Thunderbird 1400
Gentoo Kernel 2.4.22-r8
512MB RAM
More than enough HD space

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Foxxtrot

[Surye]

I have the exact same problem, a year later

I'm also getting segfaults when starting mozilla-firefox-bin. One thing to note is I am using 2.6.9-rc3-mm3 with linux26-headers and glibc-2.3.4.20040808-r1 with nptl, gcc-3.4.2-r2 and reiser4. This and firefox are my only issues so far with this setup, but it is a new install. Also, sorry for bumping up something so old, but I can't copy into links2 very easy, and this has all the messages already

[wizatdiz]

I have this problem as well with the same configuration as Surye.

[Surye]

Here's a dump from dmesg for when this happens, did not notice it before:

http://calypso.datamachine.net/~surye/dmesg.txt

[seank]

Post the ouput of "emerge info" please.

[Surye]

No problem(again, linking cause I can't really paste it in):
http://calypso.datamachine.net/~surye/emerge-info.txt

[Surye]

Just an update, rolling back to linux-2.6.8.1-mm4 fixed all these problems. So now I atleast know the source of the problem.

[Rhysem]

[EDIT]

Yep, that did it.

[/EDIT]

I'm on 2.6.9-rc4-mm1 and getting the same issue. I'll try 2.6.8.1-mm4, assuming it has reiser4 patches and try to remember to post results.

I also have the same problem with the latest mm-sources kernels, but mm-sources-2.6.9-rc2-r3 works fine.

[pludodog]

Same problem here on mm-2.6.9-rc4... any workarounds?
