can you lower your CFLAGS and try to emerge a2ps again.

I altered my make.conf

### FLAGS for debugging
CFLAGS          ="-march=athlon64 -O1 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -g -ggdb3"
LDFLAGS         ="-Wl,-O1"


but ... no, I can't (do anything):

magic atti # emerge -pvD a2ps

Oh, I forgot to mention, that this ^^ happened when I typed "emerge sync" the

same story with

I addd RESTRICT=test to the ebuild, until a proper fix is found

Closing as NEEDINFO but should rather be NEEDPATCH.

Stefan - you can remove RESTRICT=test from -r5, this problem was fixed with the
stdarg patch in -r3 and on.  You could put the restriction on -r2.

(I just wasted time fixing this same issue on bug #145897 :/ )

ok; restriction removed as the bug was fixed some time ago.
I haven't restricted -r2, as the test failure is a real failure of the
application, not just an error in the test.

For those  watching for a fix, the actual problem is that 'a2ps --list=options'
segfaults - so if you don't use that option (and it's not likely ;) ) there's
no need to worry about it.  If you do want to see a clean test run, use
app-text/a2ps-4.13c-r3 or later - currently in ~arch so add one of these
versions to package.keywords; otherwise just wait for a later version to go
stable.

Upstream mention that this is expected to fail if the tests are run as root. 
Try:

FEATURES="userpriv usersandbox" emerge app-text/a2ps

approved!
