Seems to be some weird problem with the makefiles, though I failed to find out more (I'm not very familiar with makefiles): make[1]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/perl-5.8.8-r2/work/perl-5.8.8/x2p' sh ../makedepend MAKE=make make[2]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/perl-5.8.8-r2/work/perl-5.8.8/x2p' echo hash.c str.c util.c walk.c | tr ' ' '\n' >.clist make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/perl-5.8.8-r2/work/perl-5.8.8/x2p' Finding dependencies for hash.o.

If you compile perl5 on a different machine or from a different object directory, copy the Policy.sh file from this object directory to the new one before you run Configure -- this will help you with most of the policy defaults. make: *** No rule to make target `<command-line>', needed by `miniperlmain.o'.

reminds me of bug 60213 vaguely. In the source, please run ./myconfig and post the output. Also, if you could post to this bug the Makefile that was generated that would probably help too. Thanks, ~mcummings
Created attachment 95096 [details] output of ./myconfig
Created attachment 95097 [details] Makefile created by perl
http://www.mail-archive.com/perl5-changes@perl.org/msg15340.html "Very recent development versions of gcc (4.2.0 20060715) seem to have switched from '<command line>' to '<command-line>'." The patch worked for me.
Created attachment 98578 [details, diff] perl-5.8.8-gcc42-command-line.patch works for me w/ gcc-4.2.0_pre20061001. (thanks Matti, this has been bugging me for months)
applying this patch for both libperl and perl. is this fix also needed for gcc-4.3.x?
spoke to dirtyepic on irc, adjusted epatch to be >=gcc-4.2. should be all set. please test and let me know so we can close this one out (line shouldn't affect regular stable users, so added as is)
has_version '>=sys-devel/gcc-4.2' && epatch ${FILESDIR}/${P}-gcc42-command-line.patch this won't get applied when using the prerelease snapshots, since eg. gcc-4.2.0_pre20061129 < gcc-4.2.0. something like has_version '>sys-devel/gcc-4.1.9999' should work, though really the patch can be applied unconditionally. it doesn't affect users of GCC < 4.2 (i just tested w/ 3.3.6 and 4.1.1).
sleeping on the job i am. this is done.
