Bug 117669 – xorg-server-1.0.1-r1 fails to compile with gcc-3.4.5

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Mike Auty (RETIRED) 2006-01-03 14:56:16 UTC]

The most recent update of xorg-server fails to compile with the following message.  This appears to be a problem with gcc-3.4.5, since recompiling 1.0.1 also fails with an identical message.  Note that even though I am running with the hardened profile, this was compiled with the vanilla gcc-config.

> default-linux/x86/2005.0

That doesn't look like the hardened profile to me :P You just have the USE flag set.

And I'm working off of a machine with gcc 3.4.5 right now.

Looking at the missing symbols, something appears to be wrong with the compilation of 
/var/tmp/portage/xorg-server-1.0.1-r1/work/xorg-server-1.0.1/hw/xfree86/utils/xorgcfg/startx.c

Please attach a compile log of xorg-server and the above file when the failure occurs.

config.log for the failed compilation

Ah, you're quite right, it is just the use flag, but that causes me enough headaches as it is!  5:)

I've attached the config.log since I'm assuming that's what you meant by compile log.

startx.c from the failed compilation

And here's the startx.c file.

No, what we mean is an actual log of the compilation process. Set PORT_LOGDIR in make.conf and attach the big file that ends up in there.

xorg-server build log

Ok, sorry, I had no idea portage could keep the full compilation results in a file.  Here you go, I'm afraid I could only attach it as a bz2, since anything over a meg isn't allowed in bugzilla and uncompressed this is about 2.5 Mb.  If there's anything else I can help with, please let me know and I'll get on it as quickly as I can...

[Comment 6 Donnie Berkholz (RETIRED) 2006-03-23 00:42:49 UTC]

I still can't reproduce this. Does it remain an issue for you?

Have you run hardware tests, such as memtest86, and also ensured this is a 100% reproduceable failure?

[Comment 7 Mike Auty (RETIRED) 2006-03-23 01:02:51 UTC]

Yeah, sorry.  This seems to be building fine now on all my dev boxes, not sure when it fixed itself...  Marking as Fixed.
