Bugzilla Bug 242776

When following instructions at:
http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/base/amd64/emul/index.xml




Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Script that reproduces the problem, meant to be ran on an amd64 system:

=============================================================================
#!/bin/bash
chroot_name="gentoo64-emul"
clean=yes
stage2="http://ftp.heanet.ie/pub/gentoo/releases/amd64/2008.0/stages/stage2-amd64-2008.0.tar.bz2"
sys_dirs="/dev /proc /sys /usr/portage"
for m in $sys_dirs
do
  umount ${chroot_name}${m}
done
wget -c "${stage2}"
if [[ "$(id -u)" != 0 ]]; then echo you need to be root; exit 1; fi
if [[ "${clean}" == yes ]]; then rm -rf "${chroot_name}"; fi
mkdir -p "${chroot_name}"
tar xfvjp stage2-amd64-2008.0.tar.bz2 -C ${chroot_name}
# Place files
cp /etc/resolv.conf ${chroot_name}/etc/resolv.conf
cat > ${chroot_name}/etc/make.conf <<EOF
CFLAGS="-O2 -pipe"
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
USE="bindist"
FEATURES="noman noinfo -unmerge-orphans"
MAKEOPTS="-j3"
EOF
cat > ${chroot_name}/set-up.sh <<EOF
find /usr/lib64 /lib64 -exec touch {} \;
rm /etc/make.profile
ln -s ../usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/amd64/dev/32bit-userland \
        /etc/make.profile
emerge --nodeps portage && rm -rf /usr/lib64/portage && source /etc/profile
emerge -e world
# Run bash interactively inside chroot
echo "You're inside chroot now."
bash
EOF

# Run chroot and execute script
mkdir ${chroot_name}/usr/portage
for m in /dev /proc /sys /usr/portage
do
  mount -o bind ${m} ${chroot_name}${m}
done
chroot ${chroot_name} /bin/bash -x /set-up.sh

Emerging ncurses fixes texinfo, but breaks sandbox

In other words, this works:

emerge ncurses
emerge texinfo

But then:

emerge -e world

fails at sandbox:

checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking for gawk... gawk
checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes
checking for x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc... x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc
checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C
compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details.

Why isn't ncurses emerged before texinfo anyway? I can see that texinfo has
ncurses as a dependency:

RDEPEND="!=app-text/tetex-2*
    >=sys-libs/ncurses-5.2-r2
    nls? ( virtual/libintl )"
DEPEND="${RDEPEND}
    nls? ( sys-devel/gettext )"

This has to do with the old blubb's profile,
default-linux/amd64/dev/32bit-userland. README says:

ove the devel-profile 32bit-userland out of 2006.0

IMPORTANT
=========

Here's how to use this profile. Any other use will probably break your
installation, so you better follow it closely.

1. Download the latest amd64 stage2 tarball
2. Unpack it to your chroot location and do all the bind mounts
3. Chroot in
4. run `find /usr/lib64 /lib64 -exec touch {} \;'
5. remove the "CHOST=" line from /etc/make.conf
6. change the /etc/make.profile link to this profile
7. run `emerge -e world'

Dependencies might not always be quite correct. Don't use this profile for
anything else then creating emul-libs.

Has anyone been able to create an emul chroot recently? How?
