Stealing this bug. -phoen][x-
Try to remerge this package, please. It should work now (Thanks to bjb for the help). -phoen][x-
I"m getting the same error, with the same ebuild. I did a 'emerge rsync' before I tried to emerge again. What am I doing wrong?
Ted, try emerge rsync again. It almost looks as if the updated 1.0.19-r3 ebuild didnt get populated to the mirrors when you where trying it. You can check if the change that phoen][x did is in by searching in the -r3 ebuild for the line: [ "${ARCH}" = "alpha" ] && append-flags "-fPIC" without it , I got the exact same error you reported. With it enabled it emerges just fine (on my box).
Bug fixed. Compiles just fine (al beit with tons of warnings). Marking as fixed. Program runs! Thanks, Ted
