• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 25691
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Miroslav Šulc 2003-09-09 00:40:24 UTC]

I cannot build iproute. Here is the output from building:

My kernel is:

uname -a
Linux centaur 2.4.22_pre2-gss #1 Thu Aug 21 15:52:56 CEST 2003 i686 Pentium III
(Coppermine) GenuineIntel GNU/Linux

Please can you help me to solve this problem?

Thank you.

Please attach the output of "emerge --info" as requested on the bug submission
page.  Thanks.

[Comment 3 Brandy Westcott (RETIRED) 2003-09-09 07:36:48 UTC]

Based on a post to the LARTC mailing list 
( http://mailman.ds9a.nl/pipermail/lartc/2003q3/009651.html ) 
it looks like iproute does not play nice with 2.4.22_pre2-gss headers. 
 
This error is caused by a sockaddr_storage struct being used without 
first being declared. This is caused by using kernel header files in 
/usr/src/linux instead of /usr/include/linux. 
 
The iproute-20010824-r4 ebuild fixes this problem: 
 
	src_compile() { 
		emake KERNEL_INCLUDE=/usr/include || die 
	} 
 
	 

[Comment 4 Georgi Georgiev 2003-09-09 12:22:22 UTC]

I had the same problem, and I am using vanilla-sources-2.4.22.
I can confirm that -r4 fixed the problem for me. Seems it is not only the gss sources that have problems after all.

[Comment 5 Miroslav Šulc 2003-09-10 00:26:52 UTC]

Where can I get the -r4 ebuild? I am new to Gentoo. My portage tree still has only -r3 ebuild though I had run 'emerge sync' few minutes ago.

BTW: Is there a way for me to close this bug?

[Comment 6 Georgi Georgiev 2003-09-10 00:36:31 UTC]

The ebuild is masked. You can try

emerge /usr/portage/sys-apps/iproute/iproute-20010824-r4.ebuild

or easier:

ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge iproute

I am not sure what documentation it would be best to read.

[Comment 7 Miroslav Šulc 2003-09-10 01:17:58 UTC]

Thank you, Georgi. I have red some documentation but I forgot ACCEPT_KEYWORDS variable.

Thank you all for solving my problem.

Do I need to close the bug myself or will it do somebody else? If it's up to me, how can I close the bug?
