my apologies, i see now that it fails to find BOTH -lrpathx and -lrpathy. sorry bout the bugspam as well.
ah, here we go.. http://www.haible.de/bruno/gettext-FAQ.html#building_rpath_check ... "If only a few among the many rpath tests fail, you can probably ignore the problem. The rpath tests are sensitive to incomplete shared library support in the system, and to bugs in libtool that creates the shared libraries. Some known failures are listed in autoconf-lib-link/tests/rpath.README." ... here's what autoconf-lib-link/tests/rpath.README has to say: ... "The rpath-2* tests are sensitive to - incomplete shared library support in the system, - bugs in libtool that creates the shared libraries, - bugs in lib-link.m4. The rpath-3* tests are sensitive to - incomplete shared library support in the system, - bugs in libtool that creates the shared libraries. * On all platforms supporting shared libraries, rpath-3aae rpath-3aag rpath-3abe rpath-3abg fail. This is a libtool 1.4.2 bug: When a shared library depends on a static library indirectly through two different dependency paths, libtool attempts to link together invalid sets of object files. * OSF/1 4.0: the tests rpath-2bbd rpath-3bbd rpath-3bbf rpath-3bbg rpath-3bbh fail, because -rpath options are not cumulative: The last -rpath option overrides all previous ones. One would need to pass all directories, separated by colons, in a single -rpath option." ... so looks like there's not much we can do about it except remove maketest from make.conf. core-devs, is it possible to make a package skip the check phase even if maketest is in FEATURES? it looks like it's unfixable and therefore make check will _always_ fail and kill the emerge. i checked the configure --help and it doesn't seem to have the needed option, but i'm clueless about it so maybe there's a universal switch i don't know about. there is --disable-rpath, but i have no idea what 'do not hardcode runtime library paths' means. ;]

oh, and the file it asked me to attach didn't seem to be there
seems to be a sandbox issue ... tests run outside of it
took the lazy way out and disabled the sandbox for testing
This is a bit confusing, this bug has been resolved as RESOLVED/FIXED, but why? On yesterdays portage tree on amd64 (about a dozen ~, but only where necessary) gettext still failed on the test. I'd suggest the the following files as solutions. Some are not quite for this bug, but would extend the options to users. Yes I know: I should make that myself. But: I can't anytime soon, and if you don't do it I won't complain. So here we go: /etc/portage/ package.features package.cflags package.cxxflags But apart from that, why has this bug been flagged as resolved by vapier? It's still there on stable amd64, so probably on stable x86 or other archs as well. Yes, there is an easy workaround. But that's not exactly what a proper bugfix is ;) Thanks for pointing out the sandbox tip tho, will try that later.
damn. confirming here as well. i'm getting the same errors in the same places as my previous log above. i don't know if this was even fixed in the first place since i never happened to actually test if it worked after it was marked resolved. =P i still stand by the comment #3. there's just no possible way that this can pass on a Gentoo system IMHO. documented examples to cause gettext test failures include: - building it with --disable-nls http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnu-utils/2004-08/msg00074.html - having a java compiler installed on the system http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/development/chapter05/gettext.html - building it on a platform that supports shared libraries autoconf-lib-link/tests/rpath.README nor do i think this is a Gentoo or sandbox issue. LFS and DiY-Linux mention the test failures as well, and either ignore them or work around them in their own way. even the gettext FAQ states that some tests will fail, and advises the user to just disregard it. http://www.haible.de/bruno/gettext-FAQ.html#building_rpath_check solutions that i did see mentioned are: 1) make -C gettext-tools check. 2) cd gettext-tools; make check; cd .. both are the same thing, i know, but i don't know which would be more practical in an ebuild, or if it works at all.
