Bug 126763 – endless build of hal 0.5.7

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Byeong-taek Lee 2006-03-18 22:49:35 UTC]

I can't finish building of hal 0.5.7.
It shows to me as following lines endlessly.

When I drop out the following line, it builds successfully, but I'm not sure if it is correct.

That's something screwy with autotools on your system. But as it turns out I dunno why the Gnome guys added eautoreconf, it's not needed.

Maybe someone should fix it in portage, because I just got the same thing...

It's marked fixed and was fixed over an hour before your comment. emerge --sync
