app-arch/rpm-4.2 doesn't compile when having the python USE-flag set. I know it's a ~x86 Portage I use, but I think this doesn't matter here. I've already tried to disable distcc and ccache, but this didn't solve the problem. After disabling the python USE-flag, app-arch/rpm-4.2 emerged without errors. emerge output: /bin/sh ../libtool --mode=compile i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I. -I../lib -I../rpmdb -I../rpmio -I../beecrypt -I../popt -I/usr/include/python2.4 -I../zlib -march=pentium3 -pipe -O2 -D_GNU_SOURCE -D_REENTRANT -Wall -Wpointer-arith -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -Wno-char-subscripts -c -o rpmmodule.lo `test -f 'rpmmodule.c' || echo './'`rpmmodule.c mkdir .libs i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I. -I../lib -I../rpmdb -I../rpmio -I../beecrypt -I../popt -I/usr/include/python2.4 -I../zlib -march=pentium3 -pipe -O2 -D_GNU_SOURCE -D_REENTRANT -Wall -Wpointer-arith -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -Wno-char-subscripts -c rpmmodule.c -MT rpmmodule.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/rpmmodule.TPlo -fPIC -DPIC -o .libs/rpmmodule.lo In file included from /usr/include/python2.4/Python.h:8, from rpmmodule.c:7: /usr/include/python2.4/pyconfig.h:838:1: warning: "_POSIX_C_SOURCE" redefined In file included from /usr/include/sys/types.h:27, from ../system.h:12, from rpmmodule.c:5: /usr/include/features.h:150:1: warning: this is the location of the previous definition In file included from ../rpmio/rpmio_internal.h:10, from rpmmodule.c:14: ../rpmio/rpmio.h:582: warning: type qualifiers ignored on function return type In file included from ../lib/rpmlib.h:13, from ../lib/rpmcli.h:9, from rpmmodule.c:15: ../popt/popt.h:447: warning: type qualifiers ignored on function return type In file included from ../lib/rpmcli.h:9, from rpmmodule.c:15: ../lib/rpmlib.h:1024: warning: type qualifiers ignored on function return type In file included from rpmmodule.c:16: ../rpmdb/rpmdb.h:481: warning: type qualifiers ignored on function return type In file included from rpmfi-py.h:5, from rpmmodule.c:28: ../lib/rpmfi.h:537: warning: type qualifiers ignored on function return type rpmmodule.c: In function 'initrpm': rpmmodule.c:210: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules rpmmodule.c:213: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules rpmmodule.c:216: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules rpmmodule.c:219: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules rpmmodule.c:222: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules rpmmodule.c:225: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules rpmmodule.c:228: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules rpmmodule.c:231: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules rpmmodule.c:234: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules rpmmodule.c:237: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules rpmmodule.c:240: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules rpmmodule.c:266: error: invalid lvalue in assignment make[3]: *** [rpmmodule.lo] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/rpm-4.2/work/rpm-4.2/python' make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/rpm-4.2/work/rpm-4.2/python' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/rpm-4.2/work/rpm-4.2' make: *** [all] Error 2 !!!
