while emerging gnome on ~x86, at-spi-1.1.9 failed with the following output: /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.2.3/../../../../i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: cannot find -lspi collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[2]: *** [libatk-bridge.la] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/at-spi-1.1.9/work/at-spi- 1.1.9/atk-bridge' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/at-spi-1.1.9/work/at-spi-1.1.9' make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2 !!! ERROR: gnome-extra/at-spi-1.1.9 failed. !!! Function gnome2_src_compile, Line 41, Exitcode 2 !!! compile failure seems to be a self dependency problem because emerging at-spi-1.1.8 and then upgrading to 1.1.9 worked fine. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. build a ~x86 from scratch 2. emerge xfree 3. emerge gnome
can you please attach a full build log and also emerge info ?
