now i notice that i have the same problem for others packages i tried to emerge. it happened in the middle of an emerge -uDNavt world i noticed something maybe related with the first package (x11-libs/libX11-1.0.2) * econf: updating libX11-1.0.2/config.sub with /usr/share/gnuconfig/config.sub /usr/bin/confcache --confcache-ignore /var/tmp/.distcc --confcache-dir /var/tmp/confcache ./configure --prefix=/usr --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --datadir=/usr/share --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var/lib --prefix=/usr --datadir=/usr/share --disable-ipv6 --build=i686-pc-linux-gnu f md5 differed /etc/ld.so.conf cache invalidated due to md5 configure: creating cache config.cache and then later it failed due to this bug: (not related with the current bug) http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=137692
rm -rf /var/tmp/confcache and try again.
Yep it solves the problem, thanks
OK, I'm closing this then. There's not much we could do until there's some effective blacklisting method implemented in confcache. Thanks.
Confcache is dead and buried, shouldn't be this bug closed?
