If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call stack if relevant. When I do "FEATURES=-confcache emerge -1 xosd", it ./configure's and compiles just fine. Seeing that the reporter also has confcache enabled, I suppose that this is rather a problem of confcache. flameeyes - could you please have a look? alexander@blatt ~ $ emerge --info Portage 2.1 (default-linux/x86/2006.0, gcc-4.1.1/vanilla, glibc-2.4-r3, 2.6.16-suspend2-r8.043.security-models i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.16-suspend2-r8.043.security-models i686 Intel(R) Celeron(R) M processor 1.50GHz Gentoo Base System version 1.12.1 ccache version 2.4 [enabled] dev-lang/python: 2.3.4-r1, 2.4.3-r1 dev-python/pycrypto: 2.0.1-r5 dev-util/ccache: 2.4-r2 dev-util/confcache: 0.4.2-r1 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.18.1 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-r2 sys-devel/binutils: 2.16.1-r2 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.3.13-r2 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.22 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r5 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86 ~x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O2 -mtune=pentium-m -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/3.5/env /usr/kde/3.5/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/shutdown /usr/share/X11/xkb /usr/share/config" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/env.d /etc/eselect/compiler /etc/gconf /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/terminfo /etc/texmf/web2c" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -mtune=pentium-m -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" DISTDIR="/Gentoo/Portage/distfiles" EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS="--alphabetical" FEATURES="autoconfig buildpkg ccache collision-protect confcache distlocks metadata-transfer sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS=" http://mirrors.sec.informatik.tu-darmstadt.de/gentoo/ http://ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de/pub/Mirrors/gentoo/ ftp://ftp.tu-clausthal.de/pub/linux/gentoo/ http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/gentoo/ ftp://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/gentoo http://distfiles.gentoo.org/ " LANG="de_DE.UTF-8" LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1" LINGUAS="de" PKGDIR="/Gentoo/Portage/packages" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --delete-after --stats --timeout=180 --exclude='/distfiles' --exclude='/local' --exclude='/packages'" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/Gentoo/Portage/build" PORTDIR="/Gentoo/Portage/tree" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/Gentoo/Portage/local-tree/misc /usr/portage/local/layman/vmware /usr/portage/local/layman/nx /usr/portage/local/layman/gentoo-de" SYNC="rsync://rsync.europe.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 GAPING_SECURITY_HOLE X acpi alsa amd apache2 apm arts artswrappersuid async avi bash-completion bdf berkdb bitmap-fonts bluetooth bootsplash cairo caps cardbus ccache cdda cddb cdio cdparanoia cdr cdrom cle266 cli crypt css curlwrappers dbus devmap dillo divx4linux dlloader dri dvd dvdread emoticon esd exif fam fbcon fbdev firefox fping freetype gdbm gif gnokii gnome gstreamer gtk gtk2 hal hpn icc id3 idn imap imlib imlib2 insecure-drivers insecure-savers isdnlog javascript jikes jpeg kde kdeenablefinal kdehiddenvisibility libedit libwww linuxthreads-tls logrotate lynxkeymap mad madwifi maildir matroska mbox mmx mmxext mozilla moznoirc mozsvg mp3 mpeg mpeg2 mpeg4 mplayer multicall ncurses netboot network new-login nfs nis nls no-old-linux no-suexec noantlr nobcel nobeanutils nobsf nobsh nocd nocommonslogging nocommonsnet nodrm nogg nogulm nojsch nojython nolog4j nomac nooro nopri norhino noxalan noxerces nozaptel nptl nsplugin offensive ogg opengl openssh pam_console pam_timestamp passfile password patented pccts pcmcia pcre perl perlsuid pic player png pnp pppd qt quicktime rar readline real recode reflection reiserfs sdl sendfile sensord session sftp sms spell spf spl sse sse2 ssl startup-notification stream subp subtitles suid symlink sysfs syslog tiff transcode truetype truetype-fonts trusted type1-fonts udev underscores unichrome unicode unsafe usb utf8 uudeview vim vim-pager vlm vorbis wifi win32codecs wma123 x11vnc xinetd xml xmms xorg xpm xprint xscreensaver xv xvid xvmc zlib elibc_glibc input_devices_evdev input_devices_keyboard input_devices_mouse input_devices_-synaptics kernel_linux linguas_de userland_GNU video_cards_fbdev video_cards_vesa video_cards_vga video_cards_via" Unset: CTARGET, INSTALL_MASK, LC_ALL, MAKEOPTS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS
