Bug 104904 – emerge failure:glibc-2.3.5-r1 while checking for is_selinux_enabled

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Hiroshi Maruyama 2005-09-05 09:07:52 UTC]

First,I installed Gentoo/AMD64(for Athlon64 2800+ PC).
Then convert it to Gentoo/AMD64/Hardened (shown as Gentoo AMD64 SELinux Handbook).

It seems working with SELinux capability.
(when login as root,I must select either staff_t or sysadm_t, and so on)

But if I try to emerge glibc (2.3.5 - > 2.3.5-r1),
emerge fails.
Last message is  'checking for is_selinux_enabled in -lselinux ... no'.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install Gentoo for AMD64.
2.Convert it to Hardened. (/etc/make.profile ->
/usr/portage/profiles/selinux/2005.1/amd64)
3.emerge sync.
4.emerge glibc.

Actual Results:  
Make check fails.

Since libselinux is only compiled for the primary ABI, glibc fails on the 32
ABI.  The patch will only enable glibc SELinux support for the primary ABI. 
SELinux support is only in nscd, so this should be ok.
