I am building an 1.4rc2 system and during the "emerge system", it bombed out emerging ftp. In particular, the linker couldn't find the ssl library. Openssl shows up in pkglist, so I'm assuming its okay. I changed /etc/make.conf to include "-ssl" and reran it and it works okay. I'm assuming there is a bug in the ssl patch that is part of ftp. In additional to the fatal error, it also had a bunch of warnings. If need be, I can get trace of these and attach them to this later. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge sync 2. emerge system 3. Actual Results: Fatal error compiling ftp. Unable to link in ssl Expected Results: Compile I'm using a stage2 tarball. I starte to install a stage3, but it was truncated and aborted, so I dumpted the stage2 over the top of it.
lack of info + you're not supposed to emerge anything until after you get to stage3
