Emerge man-1.5l-r2 appears to apply patches and configure normally, but compilation fails on man.c: colorgcc -c -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -march=athlon-mp -O3 -pipe -fforce-addr -fomit-frame-pointer -funroll-loops -falign-functions=4 -I. -DSTDC_HEADERS -DPOSIX -DDO_COMPRESS -DGREPSILENT="'q'" man.c man.c: In function `do_global_apropos': man.c:1107: `q' undeclared (first use in this function) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: No out of the ordinary setup to my knowledge. full output from emerge in attachment

does this happen without colorgcc as well?
Yes it happens even if colorgcc is unmerged.
I dont know what to do about that 'q' thing anymore. I have tried to fix it a dozen ways, and each fails somewhere else. What version of sed installed (emerge epm; epm -q sed), and attach output of 'emerge info'.

Juts FYI, I tried with a pared down CFLAGS and USE commented out completely, and it still fails in the same way. Also, If I replace GREPSILENT in man.c with the char constant 'q' by hand and it compiles fine.
OK, so I don't know why the substitution is not working, but I gave up trying to be subtle. I change the patch: /usr/portage/sys-apps/man/files/man-1.5l-wrong-quotes.patch which has the offending assignment to just use the hard coded hex ascii vallue for 'q' --- man-1.5k/src/Makefile.in.orig 2002-12-26 06:43:39.000000000 +0200 +++ man-1.5k/src/Makefile.in 2002-12-26 06:48:18.000000000 +0200 @@ -16,7 +16,7 @@ pager = @pager@ -GS = -DGREPSILENT=\'@grepsilent@\' +GS = -DGREPSILENT=0x71 DEFS = @DEFS@ $(GS) CWARN = -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes CWARNNP = -Wall and it builds fine now. I don't know what a better solution is.
Can you merge supersed, and then cp /bin/sed to /bin/sed.old for example, and then link ssed to sed, and see if it works unpatched then ?
Well, man has always had the "wrong quotes" patch, so I am going to assume you mean the *original* patch, before I modified it, i.e. the one with +GS = -DGREPSILENT="'@grepsilent@'" Anyhow, I tried what you suggested and it still fails, with the same error. The actual gcc command issued looks fine, so I think maybe the problem is after automake/sed do their business.
Right. I do not want to hardcode 'q', and thus is why I have not simply changed it in the past. I went with your hexdecimal idea, and changed the patch to: ----------------------------------------------------------------- --- man-1.5k/src/Makefile.in.orig 2002-12-26 06:43:39.000000000 +0200 +++ man-1.5k/src/Makefile.in 2002-12-26 06:48:18.000000000 +0200 @@ -16,7 +16,7 @@ pager = @pager@ -GS = -DGREPSILENT=\'@grepsilent@\' +GS = -DGREPSILENT=$(shell echo "@grepsilent@" | hexdump -d -n 1 | gawk '{ printf("0x%x", $$2); exit 0 }') DEFS = @DEFS@ $(GS) CWARN = -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes CWARNNP = -Wall ---------------------------------------------------------------- Which fixes it, and still will handle 'grepsilent' changing.
breaks building stage2, see bug #20095
