Description Diego Jacobi 2005-12-27 08:54:32 UTC
Hi. This is not the first time which happens to me.

When i try to compile something and the clock is not set or is wrong, make will permenently try to use a Makefile.in saying which has modification time in the future.

The first time, i update the system clock and it works. Now i do a emerge --update --deep --newuse world and the same error ocurrs with binutils i fix it adding ten minutes to the real time and it works at the moment but i cant understand why, if the system clock is ok it should work fine.

I dont know if it is really a bug, but you will know what to do.

No, broken system clock is not a Gentoo bug. :=) Also, you should wipe ${PORTAGE_TMPDIR} after fixing your clock issues before you try to compile again.
Comment 2 Diego Jacobi 2005-12-27 14:15:56 UTC
The system clock is just fine, setted to the local time, and gentoo update it fine, but before compile anything i have to "move up" the hour for 10 minutes (i dont know the word to tell in english).

Example:
mi real local time is :
19:15   27/12/2005
and i have to configure:
19:25   27/12/2005
to make it work with make, if not it says which the modification time is in the future. But i have to hack my clock to make it think i am on the future.

thanks anyway.
