Bug 140672 – binutils-2.16.1-r3 failed due to unterminated 's' command

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Ryan McLinko 2006-07-16 10:37:59 UTC]

When I attempt to emerge fluxbox, the second package is binutils02.16.1-r3.  After it goes through finishing checking stuff on the ebuild, it prints creating Makefile, then it gives the following error:

sed: file conftest.s2 line 51: unterminated 's' command
make: *** No rule to make target 'configure-bfd'.  Stop.

!!! ERROR: sys-devel/binutils-2.16.1-r3 failed
!!! Funciton toolchain-binutils_src_compile, Line189, Exitcode 2

[Comment 1 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) 2006-07-16 11:11:28 UTC]

Reopen with emerge --info and some context, not just a single line.

[Comment 2 Ryan McLinko 2006-07-16 15:13:55 UTC]

Here's emerge --info.

[Comment 3 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) 2006-07-16 15:21:47 UTC]

Try again with _untruncated_ emerge --info and also post the errors.

[Comment 4 Ryan McLinko 2006-07-16 16:13:58 UTC]

What do you mean by _untruncated_ emerge --info?

Also, is there a specific log file you want me to post?

[Comment 5 Ryan McLinko 2006-07-16 17:26:18 UTC]

ok, I'm guessing by untruncated you mean emerge --info --verbose, which I have posted below:

[Comment 6 Ryan McLinko 2006-07-16 21:18:37 UTC]

So I tried again (to again look for any logs that I could find), except this time it worked.  So, I'm not sure what's different since it's still 2.16.1-r3 and I'm not sure what I changed since the last time it didn't work.
