I have a stable box with xorg-x11 7. I noticed `ybin` from yaboot was complaining for a lack of hfsutils. I checked the `ybin` shell script and noticed `hfsutil` was not present in /usr/bin nor elsewhere on the system. Emerge of hfsutils does not actually install `hfsutil`. All the symlinks get made okay but there is no hfsutil to be found. I am no expert on ebuilds/portage so I broke out just after the source compile completed and moved hfsutil over to /usr/bin after a previous install of the same ebuild. `ybin` now functions normally. Anyway, I think this line in the output is the problem area: >>> Source compiled. >>> Test phase [not enabled]: sys-fs/hfsutils-3.2.6-r4 >>> Install hfsutils-3.2.6-r4 into /var/tmp/portage/hfsutils-3.2.6-r4/image/ category sys-fs cd libhfs && make make[1]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/hfsutils-3.2.6-r4/work/hfsutils-3.2.6/libhfs' make[1]: Nothing to be done for `all'. make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/hfsutils-3.2.6-r4/work/hfsutils-3.2.6/libhfs' /bin/install -c -m 755 hfsutil "/var/tmp/portage/hfsutils-3.2.6-r4/image//usr/bin/." for file in hattrib hcd hcopy hdel hdir hformat hls hmkdir hmount hpwd hrename hrmdir humount hvol; do \ ln -s "/var/tmp/portage/hfsutils-3.2.6-r4/image//usr/bin/hfsutil" "/var/tmp/portage/hfsutils-3.2.6-r4/image//usr/bin/$file"; \ done rm -f "/var/tmp/portage/hfsutils-3.2.6-r4/image//usr/bin/hfsutil" ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ emerge --info Portage 2.1_pre6-r7 (default-linux/ppc/ppc32/2006.0/G3, gcc-3.4.5, glibc-2.3.5-r3, 2.6.15-gentoo-r1 ppc) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.15-gentoo-r1 ppc 740/750 Gentoo Base System version 1.6.14 dev-lang/python: 2.4.2 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.12 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r7 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.16.1 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.22 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="ppc" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-mcpu=750 -mtune=G3 -Os -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -mpowerpc-gfxopt -fsigned-char" CHOST="powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/share/X11/xkb /usr/share/config /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-mcpu=750 -mtune=G3 -Os -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -mpowerpc-gfxopt -fsigned-char -fvisibility-inlines-hidden" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig distlocks metadata-transfer sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://distfiles.csrc.com:8080 http://gentoo.seren.com/gentoo http://mirror.gentoo.gr.jp" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://portage-mt2.csrc.com/gentoo-portage" USE="ppc X alsa apache2 apm arts berkdb bitmap-fonts bonobo cdr cli crypt ctype cups dba dri dvd eds emboss encode esd expat fastbuild foomaticdb force-cgi-redirect fortran ftp gd gdbm gif gnome gpm gstreamer gtk gtk2 gtkhtml imlib ipv6 jpeg kde ldap libg++ libwww mad memlimit mikmod motif mozilla mp3 mpeg ncurses nls nptl ogg opengl pam pcre pdflib perl png posix python qt quicktime readline ruby sdl session simplexml soap sockets spell spl ssl tcpd tokenizer truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts udev unicode vorbis xml xmms xsl xv zlib elibc_glibc input_devices_keyboard input_devices_mouse kernel_linux userland_GNU video_cards_ati video_cards_fbdev" Unset: ASFLAGS, CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, LANG, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS, LINGUAS
