Description Marien Zwart (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2013-01-16 09:00:01 UTC
Build fails like this:

make: *** [lua_build] Error 2
 * ERROR: net-analyzer/nmap-6.25 failed (compile phase):

I believe this is caused by the sed invocations added to the ebuild to fix bug 445524. This version built for me before, and one of the lines being removed from liblua/Makefile is "AR= ar rcu". It's now trying to run "x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-ar <files>" where it probably previously ran "ar rcu <files>". I think that Makefile needs patching to make the line "$(AR) $@ $(BASE_O)" expect $AR to be just ar, without flags.

Good catch, that was my fault - liblua subdirectory Makefile is only one, who pass options to AR variable in this variable itself

I have removed all the unneeded sed invocations now. They are much too complicated, and setting AR/RANLIB on the make command line neatly overrides anything in the Makefiles anyway.

Which it shouldn't anyway, so I have written an upstreamable patch for that. Maybe you want to take care of submitting that.
