No, I'm not smoking anything: It seems like colorls confuses the OOo build script. I could not build OOo since some time, it always bailed out (portage just exited wth an error code 1) after "Bootstrapping". I had no idea what could be wrong until I tried again a few days ago and noticed a "Unknown colorls variable `su'." after Bootsrapping, which was new (see attached log). I first tried an 'unalias ls' before emerging OOo, but that didn't help. But now I both did 'unset LS_COLORS' and 'unalias ls' and it seems like OOo is building fine (emerge still running but passed the "Bootstrapping" stage). I'll attacha sample patch which unsets that stuff before building.

Created attachment 88430 [details, diff] This patch could fix the problem.
Forgot to include my colorls settings: mss@otherland /usr/portage/app-office/openoffice $ env|grep LS_COLOR LS_COLORS=no=00:fi=00:di=01;34:ln=01;36:pi=40;33:so=01;35:do=01;35:bd=40;33;01:cd=40;33;01:or=01;05;37;41:mi=01;05;37;41:su=37;41:sg=30;43:tw=30;42:ow=34;42:st=37;44:ex=01;32:*.tar=01;31:*.tgz=01;31:*.arj=01;31:*.taz=01;31:*.lzh=01;31:*.zip=01;31:*.z=01;31:*.Z=01;31:*.gz=01;31:*.bz2=01;31:*.bz=01;31:*.tbz2=01;31:*.tz=01;31:*.deb=01;31:*.rpm=01;31:*.jar=01;31:*.rar=01;31:*.ace=01;31:*.zoo=01;31:*.cpio=01;31:*.7z=01;31:*.rz=01;31:*.jpg=01;35:*.jpeg=01;35:*.gif=01;35:*.bmp=01;35:*.pbm=01;35:*.pgm=01;35:*.ppm=01;35:*.tga=01;35:*.xbm=01;35:*.xpm=01;35:*.tif=01;35:*.tiff=01;35:*.png=01;35:*.mng=01;35:*.pcx=01;35:*.mov=01;35:*.mpg=01;35:*.mpeg=01;35:*.m2v=01;35:*.mkv=01;35:*.ogm=01;35:*.mp4=01;35:*.m4v=01;35:*.mp4v=01;35:*.qt=01;35:*.wmv=01;35:*.asf=01;35:*.rm=01;35:*.rmvb=01;35:*.flc=01;35:*.avi=01;35:*.fli=01;35:*.gl=01;35:*.dl=01;35:*.xcf=01;35:*.xwd=01;35:*.pdf=00;32:*.ps=00;32:*.txt=00;32:*.patch=00;32:*.diff=00;32:*.log=00;32:*.tex=00;32:*.doc=00;32:*.flac=01;35:*.mp3=01;35:*.mpc=00;36:*.ogg=00;36:*.wav=00;36:*.mid=00;36:*.midi=00;36:*.au=00;36:*.flac=00;36:*.aac=00;36: mss@otherland /usr/portage/app-office/openoffice $ alias alias ls='ls --color=auto'
Could it be that your coreutils are not up-to-date, this should have been fixed quite some time ago: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=120792
Hmmm... my coreutils are up-to-date but tcsh isn't even thouth 'emerge -uD' doesn't want to update it. I'll update it manually, but as tcsh-6.14 is stable now, maybe OOo should depend on it as suggested in bug 120792? mss@otherland ~ $ equery l -p coreutils [ Searching for package 'coreutils' in all categories among: ] * installed packages [I--] [ ] sys-apps/coreutils-5.94-r1 (0) * Portage tree (/usr/portage) [-P-] [ ] sys-apps/coreutils-5.2.1-r7 (0) [-P-] [M~] sys-apps/coreutils-5.3.0-r2 (0) [-P-] [M~] sys-apps/coreutils-5.94-r2 (0) [-P-] [M~] sys-apps/coreutils-5.94-r3 (0) [-P-] [M~] sys-apps/coreutils-5.95 (0) [-P-] [M~] sys-apps/coreutils-5.96 (0) [-P-] [M ] sys-apps/coreutils-darwin-5.3.0 (0) [-P-] [ ] sys-apps/policycoreutils-1.28 (0) [-P-] [M~] sys-apps/policycoreutils-1.30-r1 (0) mss@otherland ~ $ equery l -p tcsh [ Searching for package 'tcsh' in all categories among: ] * installed packages [I--] [M ] app-shells/tcsh-6.13-r1 (0) * Portage tree (/usr/portage) [-P-] [ ] app-shells/tcsh-6.14-r2 (0) [-P-] [ ] app-shells/tcsh-6.14-r3 (0)
I've raised the dependency to tcsh now, to make sure everyone gets the fix, closing
