cups-1.1.20 is not in portage any more...
(In reply to comment #1) > cups-1.1.20 is not in portage any more... Jakub, did you mean to make that comment on another bug? I don't think you meant this one.
Tassilo, could you tell us what version of make you've got? I notice you're running ~x86.
It's sys-devel/make-3.81.
(In reply to comment #4) > It's sys-devel/make-3.81. As an experiment, would you mind downgrading to the current stable x86 version of make and trying the build again? Currently that would be sys-devel/make-3.80-r4. I suspect that it may be a bad interaction between make and ghc's makefiles. If make is not running anything and is taking 99% cpu time it rather hints at a make bug. It may turn out to be a bug in the ghc makefiles that was exposed by the new make version. Either way it'll be useful to know if the bug happes with versin 3.81 and not 3.80.
Looks like the same bug as this one (thanks kosmikus): http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=15584 and also reported as: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/678 So it looks like make 3.81 does indeed have a bug and the current workaround is to downgrade to make 3.80.
After donwgrading to make-3.80 the compile went ok. Thanks, Duncan. -- Tassilo
Reasigning to base-system folks so they can track this bug in make 3.81. Changing summary to better reflect the source of the problem.
Note that this bug is fixed in ghc-6.4.2 and we could apply the (trivial) patch to 6.4.1.
so is this a bug in make or ghc ?
(In reply to comment #10) > so is this a bug in make or ghc ? Personally I think it's a bug in make. It happens to be something we can work around in ghc by changing the makefiles. The upstream devs seem to suggest that it's not a bug, just a change in unspecified behaviour which happens to cause make to appear to hang (there are reports that it doesn't hang but just takes 24hours to finnish). You can make up your own mind if you think it really is a bug: upstream: http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=15584 debian: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=346248 The debian bug thread actually has more useful detail. ghc workaround: http://www.haskell.org//pipermail/glasgow-haskell-bugs/2006-February/006184.html Anyway, even if we think it's a bug in make, if the make people arn't going to do anything about it then there's not a lot we can do. Hopefully any other packages that get bitten by this will have as easy a workaround. Summary: feel free to close this as CANTFIX or something.
how about this ... if upstream make posts a fix/change/whatever that addresses this issue, i'll add it ... otherwise we'll just roll with WORKSFORME
