Description Michał Górny archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2016-07-08 22:00:18 UTC 
The glibc common.eblit calls multilib_env_setup from multilib.eclass that overrides LIBDIR_* values using some fancy hardcoded logic. As a result, the correct LIBDIR_* values from the current profile are being ignored and glibc does not compile correctly on my profile.

The multilib.eclass describes multilib_env_setup as intended for cross-compiling. Why is it called on regular host builds then?

    sys-libs/glibc: Do not reset multilib vars unless cross-compiling, #588368
    
    Do not call multilib_env_reset unless cross-compiling, in order to
    prevent the function from redefining profile-defined variables such as
    LIBDIR_*.
