Bug 25691 – cannot emerge iproute, include/library problem

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Solto 2003-08-01 04:07:21 UTC]

Tried to emerge iproute (all ebuilds), but it fails to compile (even non-gentoo source). I get the following output:
>>> emerge (1 of 1) sys-apps/iproute-20010824-r3 to /
>>> md5 src_uri ;-) iproute2-2.4.7-now-ss010824.tar.gz

Looks like some kernel include problem. I have glibc-2.3.2-r1, linux-2.4.22-pre3-ac1 kernel, gcc3.2.3-r1.  

Reproducible: Always

please test this again now with -r4 as we now build against the kernel headers in /usr/include/linux.

[Comment 2 Solto 2003-08-17 11:55:56 UTC]

ok ... everything works now ... thx

[Comment 3 Martin Holzer (RETIRED) 2003-08-17 12:16:15 UTC]

fixed

[Comment 4 Rob Davies 2003-09-04 06:12:14 UTC]

Any chance of moving -r4 to stable?  As there's no mention of 'gr_group has incomplete type', 
in the summary, it's easy to miss this solution, I thought it likely to be due to my use of vanilla 
sources.
