Bug 101396 – glibc 2.3.5 failing on i686

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Scott 2005-08-04 17:19:35 UTC]

I have seen from http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=90236 that glibc 2.3.5
fails on i586 or less, but I am having the exact same problem with i686.  I will
attach compiler error output in a second.



Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge -u system
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
compilation error

Expected Results:  
successful compilation

Compiler Output

uhh the error you posted has nothing to do with Bug 90236

I think I found that bug report because both our errors had the line:

!!! Function toolchain-glibc_src_compile, Line 237, Exitcode 2

I am not intimately familiar with glibc though.  I tried to do some
trouble-shooting, but apparently I was off-base.

Yeah, that's just bubbling up the error. The real problem is above that line. 
Have you tried 2.3.5-r1 or 2.3.4.2005XXXX?  Are you able to recompile
2.3.4.20041102-r1 without a problem?

[Comment 5 Scott 2005-08-06 16:22:39 UTC]

I just tried glibc-2.3.5-r1, and that compiled successfully.

[Comment 6 Mark Loeser (RETIRED) 2005-11-27 01:09:12 UTC]

Looks like this issue is resolved with newer revisions of 2.3.5.
