Bugzilla Bug 33584

When I try to emerge dev-db/firebird, it fails to compile completely and I get
this error:

Building the QLI help database...
sh -c ' source/interbase/bin/gbak  source/qli/master_help_db
source/interbase/help/help.gbak'
gbak: ERROR: Your user name and password are not defined. Ask your database
administrator to set up a Firebird login.
gbak: Exiting before completion due to errors
make: *** [help] Error 1

!!! ERROR: dev-db/firebird-1.0.3 failed.
!!! Function src_compile, Line 40, Exitcode 2
!!! (no error message)

I have posted a full compile log to my website at:
http://www.absolutek.ca/compile.log (1710861 bytes).

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge dev-db/firebird
Actual Results:  
The compile fails with this error message:

Expected Results:  
It should have finished emerge'ing the software into my system and made it ready
to use.

dev-db/firebird isn't a Mozilla thing; re-assigning to the maintainer in
metadat.xml.

Do you have a previous install of firebird ?

I do not have a previous install of Firebird.

Is it persistent every time you try to emerge it ?

I've gone over the output you linked to, and can't
find a reason why it should loose the admin user/pass
which is reported correctly at the begining of the build
process (which I truely hate :-/ ).

This bug occurs every time I try to install Firebird.

I had same problem.
I have changed in a file /etc/make.conf a line 
CFLAGS="-O3 -march=pentium4 -funroll-loops -fprefetch-loop-arrays -pipe"
to a line
CFLAGS="-O3 -march=pentium4  -fprefetch-loop-arrays -pipe"

Now all 

I had same problem.
I have changed in a file /etc/make.conf a line 
CFLAGS="-O3 -march=pentium4 -funroll-loops -fprefetch-loop-arrays -pipe"
to a line
CFLAGS="-O3 -march=pentium4  -fprefetch-loop-arrays -pipe"

Now all ÎÊ.

After setting my CFLAGS environment variable to:

CFLAGS="-O3 -march=pentium4  -fprefetch-loop-arrays -pipe"

I have found that Firebird compiles fine (don't know why, but atleast it compiles).

Perhaps the ebuild should have a notice for users to change their CFLAGS? or over ride the users CFLAGS?

Seems -funroll-loops is the source of the problem.

I can't reproduce on my machine, which uses gcc 3.3.2
right now. Could be an issue with gcc 3.2.3 ?

Added strip-flags to the ebuild which removes
-funroll-loops.

If you can, please rsync and test with your original
set of CFLAGS and report the outcome here. 10x

BTW
sokoloff, 10x for the info. You can report such
incidents to the maintainer, and have the fix added to
the ebuild ;-)

Looks like no further comments on this.

Closing.
