Bug 103374 – media-libs/aalib (and other packages) fail to compile with 64-bit kernel and 32-bit userland due to linux-headers

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Michael Hanselmann (hansmi) (RETIRED) 2005-08-22 13:50:16 UTC]

media-libs/aalib (and other packages, like sys-libs/gpm) fail to compile with
64-bit kernel and 32-bit userland. That's because linux-headers installs the
64-bit headers, so that glibc can use them. Currently, it looks like the error
happens only in /usr/include/linux/spinlock.h, but I'm not sure on this.

Commenting out PROFILE_ARCH in make.defaults and remerging linux-headers helps
as a temporary fix.

I think I've got one possible fix using sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.6.11-r2: Move
lines 222-228 to line 44. aalib compiles after that, but I'm not totally sure
wether this fixes everything.

... of spinlock.h, that is.
