First, yacas failed to work at all. Running it would cause it to terminate with: terminate called after throwing an instance of 'int' I ltrace'd it and found it to be caused by a failed dlopen(), looking for libmath. Executing with the following commandline would work: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/yacas yacas But the error should never have happened in the first place, because any errors attempting to load libmath are supposed to be caught in /usr/share/yacas/yacasinit.ys: If(Equals(LoadPlugIns,False), [ Use("base.rep/math.ys"); ], [ TrapError(DllLoad("libmath"),Use("base.rep/math.ys")); ] ); After getting yacas to run with LD_LIBRARY_PATH as above, I found that it fails on any invalid command. Example: In> This is not a valid command. terminate called after throwing an instance of 'int' Recompiling without -fomit-frame-pointer made the above problems go away: In> This is not a valid command. String(1) : Error parsing expression, near token is It seems -fomit-frame-pointer breaks yacas' internal error handling. Please consider filtering it in the ebuild. markusle@gentoo.org 2006-04-09 05:02:07 0000 Hi Rohan, Thanks for your report. Unfortunately, I can not reproduce it since yacas works just fine compiled with -fomit-frame-pointer on my box. Your issues with dlopen are strange but hard to debug for me at the moment. If you still have these issues please post your emerge --info. best, Markus rohan@mcgovern.id.au 2006-04-11 16:39:24 0000 I did some more experimenting, and it seems that the combination of "-Os -fomit-frame-pointer" is what causes the problem. Sorry for not attaching 'emerge --info' the first time around, it did not occur to me that it could be a combination of two or more flags. The error occurred when I was compiling with CFLAGS="-march=pentium-m -Os -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer". Removing -fomit-frame-pointer OR changing -Os to -O2 makes the problem go away.

I would be more tempted to substitute -O2 for -Os in this case rather than filtering -fomit-frame-pointer. Anyone else have any opinions on this? rohan@mcgovern.id.au 2006-04-12 02:37:07 0000 I concur with comment #3. cryos@gentoo.org 2006-04-15 01:59:20 0000 sci-mathematics/yacas-1.0.61 fixed now - -Os is replaced with -O2. Thanks for reporting the issue.
