This is quite different from bug #108513 and probably related to bug #111608. I've the same result on ~amd64 and ~x86. >>> Test phase [check]: app-arch/sharutils-4.6 Making check in intl make[1]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/sharutils-4.6/work/sharutils-4.6/intl' make[1]: Nothing to be done for `check'. make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/sharutils-4.6/work/sharutils-4.6/intl' Making check in lib make[1]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/sharutils-4.6/work/sharutils-4.6/lib' make check-am make[2]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/sharutils-4.6/work/sharutils-4.6/lib' if x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -DLIBDIR=\"/usr/lib64\" -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I.. -I. -I../intl -march=athlon64 -O2 -pipe -fforce-addr -ffast-math -msse2 -ftracer -m3dnow -MT error.o -MD -MP -MF ".deps/error.Tpo" -c -o error.o error.c; \ then mv -f ".deps/error.Tpo" ".deps/error.Po"; else rm -f ".deps/error.Tpo"; exit 1; fi if x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -DLIBDIR=\"/usr/lib64\" -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I.. -I. -I../intl -march=athlon64 -O2 -pipe -fforce-addr -ffast-math -msse2 -ftracer -m3dnow -MT md5.o -MD -MP -MF ".deps/md5.Tpo" -c -o md5.o md5.c; \ then mv -f ".deps/md5.Tpo" ".deps/md5.Po"; else rm -f ".deps/md5.Tpo"; exit 1; fi rm -f libshar.a ar cru libshar.a basename.o error.o getopt.o getopt1.o md5.o offtostr.o whoami.o xgetcwd.o xmalloc.o xstrdup.o x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-ranlib libshar.a make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/sharutils-4.6/work/sharutils-4.6/lib' make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/sharutils-4.6/work/sharutils-4.6/lib' Making check in src make[1]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/sharutils-4.6/work/sharutils-4.6/src' x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -march=athlon64 -O2 -pipe -fforce-addr -ffast-math -msse2 -ftracer -m3dnow -o shar shar.o encode.o ../lib/libshar.a ../lib/libshar.a x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -march=athlon64 -O2 -pipe -fforce-addr -ffast-math -msse2 -ftracer -m3dnow -o unshar unshar.o encode.o ../lib/libshar.a ../lib/libshar.a x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -march=athlon64 -O2 -pipe -fforce-addr -ffast-math -msse2 -ftracer -m3dnow -o uuencode uuencode.o ../lib/libshar.a ../lib/libshar.a x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -march=athlon64 -O2 -pipe -fforce-addr -ffast-math -msse2 -ftracer -m3dnow -o uudecode uudecode.o ../lib/libshar.a ../lib/libshar.a make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/sharutils-4.6/work/sharutils-4.6/src' Making check in doc make[1]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/sharutils-4.6/work/sharutils-4.6/doc' make[1]: Nothing to be done for `check'. make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/sharutils-4.6/work/sharutils-4.6/doc' Making check in po make[1]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/sharutils-4.6/work/sharutils-4.6/po' make[1]: Nothing to be done for `check'. make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/sharutils-4.6/work/sharutils-4.6/po' Making check in contrib make[1]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/sharutils-4.6/work/sharutils-4.6/contrib' make[1]: Nothing to be done for `check'. make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/sharutils-4.6/work/sharutils-4.6/contrib' Making check in tests make[1]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/sharutils-4.6/work/sharutils-4.6/tests' make check-TESTS make[2]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/sharutils-4.6/work/sharutils-4.6/tests' PASS: uutest-1 PASS: uude-1 PASS: shar-1 x -

reported upstream. just a path issue in the self test. Looks like 4.6.1 is going to be released soon. Thank Sandro

Hi Daniel, Humph! Adding "../src" to the path was already done, but is inadequate. In order to test certain features, I needed a shar archive that recursed, so I placed it in a temp directory (favoring $TMPDIR, but otherwise /tmp). Once the script does a "cd" over there, "../src" does not work very well. So: PATH=`cd ..;pwd`/src:$PATH Yummy. Thanks for the report. Regards, Bruce awaiting release before including.
sharutils-4.6.1_pre4 added to fix problem. Thanks.
Closing, the solution works fine for me.
