Error I get: >>> Completed installing libedit-20061103 into /var/tmp/portage/dev-libs/libedit-20061103/image/ ecompressdir: bzip2 -9 /usr/share/man/man3 ecompressdir: bzip2 -9 /usr/share/man/man5 strip: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-strip --strip-unneeded lib/libedit.so usr/lib/libedit.a * QA Notice: Missing gen_usr_ldscript for libedit.so !!! ERROR: dev-libs/libedit-20061103 failed. Call stack: misc-functions.sh, line 570: Called install_qa_check misc-functions.sh, line 267: Called die !!! add those ldscripts !!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call stack if relevant. I think problem is related to bug 4411.. Looking into 'image' directory we can see the following: /lib/libedit.so (library) /usr/lib/libedit.a (static library) /usr/lib64/libedit.so (ldscript which emerge is complaining about) I believe the problem lies in lib/lib64 difference.. Marcin Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge libedit 3.

What's the output of `ls -ld /usr/lib{,64}'?
sun ~ # ls -ld /usr/lib{,64} lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 5 2006-02-07 17:09 /usr/lib -> lib64 drwxr-xr-x 112 root root 2541 2007-01-13 22:32 /usr/lib64
By 'image' directory I mean /var/tmp/portage/dev-libs/libedit-20061103/image I think this is what suppose to go into the package..
really is not amd64 specific at all
yeah ok, i was too hasty there ... your profile is invalid: default-linux/amd64
