I think this is because of the new ebuild. It includes contrib patches to john, but the use flag are used to look for dependencies. Try it with kerberos, skey and ntlm use flags and see if it works.

Hysteric

[Comment 2 Ernani MElode Sousa Reis 2004-05-23 15:30:30 UTC]

I tried with the use flags you mentioned (kerberos, skey and ntlm) and got the same result.

[Comment 3 Daniel Black (RETIRED) 2004-05-23 22:30:03 UTC]

I committed version 1.6.37-r1 a few hours ago that fixed lots of bugs and have removed 1.6.37.

This bench target that it seems to be building I had included however it is an executable without a main function. I have not found a reason for it to be included and as such it has been removed since been removed from the compile process.

The skey part of 1.6.37-r1 fails a self test (john -test) and I'm still investigating as to why that fails.

Please reopen if version 1.6.37-r1 fails.

Same error with version 1.6.37-r1

Ok fixed properly this time (touch wood). This will not work with hppa or mips for a little bit (until I fix something). sparc,x86,ppc,amd64,alpha all should be fine though (awaiting tested confirmation in bug #51442)

Thank for the bug report.

Owen,
While I think of it. If you have a P3 (as I do) you should be able to set the mmx use flag and get a bit of added performance. Check /proc/cpuinfo for the flags. If it contains mmx you can use the useflag to get the added performence.
