Description marr 2002-04-07 19:29:38 UTC
I installed kde3.0 after a fresh install of the latest Gentoo. At log on, ksplash crashes. In an attempt to debug, I was informed that gdb needed to be emerged. I did this and recieved an error of 1100+ lines! I have taken pieces of this error and posted below. I can send the whole file to whomever requests it.  In file included from /usr/include/math.h:350,                    from floatformat.c:21:   /usr/include/bits/mathinline.h: In function `__sgn1l':   /usr/include/bits/mathinline.h:468: warning: integer constant is unsigned in ANSI C,   signed with -traditional   md5.c: In function `md5_init_ctx':   md5.c:69: warning: integer constant is unsigned in ANSI C, signed with -traditional     <snip alot of stuff>     make[1]: *** [utils.o] Error 1   make: *** [install-gdb] Error 2      !!!

After installing kde 3.0 on a freshly emerged gentoo 1.0, the first thing that I was presented with was a crash of ksplash (it still does this every login, I guess that is another bug though.) In an attempt to debug, i found I needed gdb. I recieved a huge error file and no gdb. I have posted the entire file on my website being that bugzilla seems to be "losing" my text I type in.

This was due to a bogus ncurses.  If you do "emerge rsync; emerge ncurses;
emerge gdb" then gdb should merge fine.
