Hi all! I tried emerging vim-core 7.0.17 and at the end of the configure I got this error message: configure: WARNING: Cache variable ac_cv_prog_STRIP contains a newline. configure: updating cache auto/config.cache configure: creating auto/config.status config.status: creating auto/config.mk config.status: WARNING: config.mk.in seems to ignore the --datarootdir setting config.status: creating auto/config.h configure: WARNING: Cache variable ac_cv_prog_STRIP contains a newline. make: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/vim-core-7.0.17/work/vim7/src' auto/config.mk:90: *** missing separator. Stop. make: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/vim-core-7.0.17/work/vim7/src' The same error message occurs when I try to emerge vim-7.0.17 /var/tmp/portage/vim-core-7.0.17/work/vim7/src/auto/config.mk on line 89-90 reads like this: STRIP = /bin/true /usr/bin/true faking strip However, /usr/bin/true is a link to /bin/true which belongs to coreutils pts/1:root@rothko:~ # equery b `which true` [ Searching for file(s) /usr/bin/true,/bin/true in *... ] sys-apps/coreutils-6.4 (/usr/bin/true -> /bin/true) sys-apps/coreutils-6.4 (/bin/true) I temporarily removed the symlink in /usr/bin/true and the configuration (and compliation) of vim-core and vim (both 7.0.17) went just fine. So far, I am happy, but I wanted to report this for the developers. Happy (bug-free) new year!

*** Bug 160290 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
I can't reproduce this here, using coreutils-6.4 and vim-7.0.17. Are you sure you ran hash -r after installing coreutils, per the post-install instructions? If you can still produce this error after that, please re-open this bug.

Hi Mike, I just ran into the same problem as before, wehn "emerge -Du world" tried to upgrade to vim-core-7.0.174. Here is the error message (complete build log as attachment): configure: WARNING: Cache variable ac_cv_prog_STRIP contains a newline. configure: updating cache auto/config.cache configure: creating auto/config.status config.status: creating auto/config.mk config.status: WARNING: config.mk.in seems to ignore the --datarootdir setting config.status: creating auto/config.h configure: WARNING: Cache variable ac_cv_prog_STRIP contains a newline. make: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/app-editors/vim-core-7.0.174/work/vim7/src' auto/config.mk:90: *** missing separator. Stop. make: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/app-editors/vim-core-7.0.174/work/vim7/src' !!! ERROR: app-editors/vim-core-7.0.174 failed. Call stack: ebuild.sh, line 1614: Called dyn_compile ebuild.sh, line 971: Called qa_call 'src_compile' environment, line 3623: Called src_compile ebuild.sh, line 1304: Called vim_src_compile vim.eclass, line 476: Called die I re-emerged coretuils-6.4 and ran hash -r (as you suggested), but the compile failure persisted. [When I re-emerge coreutils I did not get the hash -r post install message?!?] In the other attachment you'll find/var/tmp/portage/app-editors/vim-core-7.0.174/work/vim7/src/auto/config.mk lines 90-91 read: STRIP = /bin/true /usr/bin/true faking strip So, there are again two entries for "true" separate by a newline ... As before, removing the symbolic link /usr/bin/true (->/bin/true) solved the issue, but this is really not very handy for every vim-core upgrade. Do you need any other information? (emerge --info remained the same since the first posting of this bug). Thanks, Jan

Hmm, well, I was digging around for another bug and I saw some code related to this in the vim.eclass. I changed it, so I'd like you to try one more time (also using the latest vim version now, which is 7.0.201).

It now works on my system (with coreutils 6.7-r1 and vim-core 7.0.201. I mark the bug as FIXED Jan
