complete build log

I had the same problem.
I solved it hacking all .asm file in src/hermes this way:

%ifidn __OUTPUT_FORMAT__,elf
section ".note.GNU-stack" noalloc noexec nowrite progbits
%endif
%ifidn __YASM_OBJFMT__,elf
section ".note.GNU-stack" noalloc noexec nowrite progbits
%endif

These lines are at the end of every file.
I put "" at the section .note.GNU-stack. Maybe the first ifidn returns true, as
far as in my case it uses yasm to compile.
I doesn't know the real meaning of it, so I can't assure it is good, but now it
doesn't return any error.
I'm waiting for explanations.

I'm having the same trouble. I'm using
binutils-2.16.1
gcc-4.1.2
yasm-0.5

I've tried with yasm-0.4 and compilation did work!
(it is caused by something that yasm-0.5 does not 
understand)

This problem is not Gentoo specific, as it is
also reported in

http://www.slacky.it/forum/viewtopic.php?t=17322

by a Slackware user.

I've reported it upstream in

http://bugzilla.libsdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=393

it's not Gentoo specific because i got the yasm/nasm stuff integrated upstream
;)

I have the same problem, it builds with yasm-0.4, but not 0.5.  On the libsdl
website, I found a patch to the configure.in file, but after manually applying
it (It didn't patch cleanly), libsdl still didn't compile.  Downgraded yasm,
and it compiled fine.  Maybe someone else can understand that patch better and
make it work for us.  Thanx

They also claim that a later version fixes this.

The idea of the patch to configure is: if yasm can compile the
code, use yasm; otherwise use nasm
(so it requires nasm to work)

dont bother trying to figure this out ... ive already posted the details of the
bug and the fix to the upstream libsdl report

This seems to be caused by the fact that

"Yasm's bin objfmt does not currently support more than just ".text", ".data",
and ".bss" sections. This support was added relatively recently to NASM but
Yasm has not implemented this yet."

(a bug reported in yasm bug-tracking system
http://www.tortall.net/projects/yasm/ticket/71)

And this bug is not fixed in yasm-0.6 yet (the fix was delayed to 
yasm-0.7)

I recently had the same problem, i just did "emerge -C yasm" and "emerge -1
libsdl" and that did it.

libsdl-1.2.11-r1.ebuild

Ebuild for no-yasm and pagesize patch. Compiles for me. Please test. Fixes BUG
#169388 (media-libs/libsdl fails to compile w/ linux-headers-2.6.20) also.

Created an attachment (id=112324) [details]
Fixed pagefile patch for working with all the other patches in the -r1 ebuild
in this thread.

The previous patch did not work for me... it looks like one of the other
patches already fixed it (I grabbed every patch from the revised -r1 ebuild).

The reason my previous patch didn't work for you is that the pagesize stuff,
BUG #169388 was fixed without a version bump:
[Mon Mar 5 2007] [17:47:18] <CIA-1>     03vapier *
10gentoo-x86/media-libs/libsdl/ (4 files in 2 dirs):
[Mon Mar 5 2007] [17:47:18] <CIA-1>     Backport some fixes from upstream to
support building without asm/page.h #169388 by merwan kashouty.
[Mon Mar 5 2007] [17:47:18] <CIA-1>     (Portage version: 2.1.2-r14)

The patch you're using just removes any mention of page.h. I dropped it. For
me, it builds without it. I'm currently using the ebuild and patches in BUG
#169477

Hmmm, bit of a mess.

To get this to work, I had to:

1) Use your libsdl-1.2.11-no-yasm.patch.
2) Ignore your pagesize patches, using the patch from bug #159923 instead,
installed as libsdl-1.2.11-linux-headers.patch.
3) Modify your libsdl-1.2.11-r1.ebuild to use libsdl-1.2.11-linux-headers.patch
but not libsdl-1.2.11-pagesize.patch.

Peter, perhaps you could obsolete your patches and ebuilds with fresh ones that
work out of the box?

Simpler fix is to 
cp /usr/bin/yasm /usr/bin/yasm50
rm /usr/bin/yasm
ln -s /usr/bin/nasm /usr/bin/yasm
emerge libsdl
rm /usr/bin/yasm
ln -s /usr/bin/yasm50 /usr/bin/yasm

worked for me

wget http://bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=112169&&sed -i -r
"s/151991$/151991\n\tepatch \"\$\{FILESDIR\}\"\/\$\{P\}-no-yasm\.patch

/usr/portage/media-libs/libsdl/libsdl-1.2.11-r1.ebuild manifest&&emerge -1
libsdl

This one-liner should work. Check that you've copied it correctly before
applying. If run more than once, there will be two lines. This can be fixed
thus:
sed -i -r "/169388/d" /usr/portage/media-libs/libsdl/libsdl-1.2.11-r1.ebuild

BTW, I really think this patch should be committed. Yasm won't be ready for
libsdl before 0.7:
http://www.tortall.net/projects/yasm/ticket/71
On top of that, as I pointed out in BUG
#169477, that libsdl uses Yasm at all is a spurious dependency. It depends on
NASM, not yasm.

(From update of attachment 112169 [details])
this is wrong as i noted already

(From update of attachment 112171 [details])
this has nothing at all to do with this bug report

(From update of attachment 112324 [details])
has nothing to do with this bug report

added the patch i sent upstream to the 1.2.11-r1 ebuild
