Description David D. Huff Jr. 2003-04-14 10:16:17 UTC
While performing an "emerge -e world" on my machine the only emerge that
wouldn't run without changing the ebuild was gst-plugins-0.6.0-r4.ebuild. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge gst-plugins
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
Each time it ran it would abort attempting to do a make all in a different
directory.

Expected Results:  
Since the problem wasn't resolved I thought it should abort in the same step.

After several attempts with varying results I commented out the strip-flags,
replace-flags, myconf and it compiled fine on an AMD 900.

I think that when the flags are stripped and the myconf is blanked not enough
info is passed to the compiler for all those modules. The two that should remain
are "-mcpu=i686" and especially "-pipe".

strip_flags shouldnt strip -pipe and -mcpu . Can you prove it does ?
Comment 2 David D. Huff Jr. 2003-04-14 11:47:21 UTC
No, possibly it was a bad assumption on my part. Could the myconf="" caused the effect I explained?
Comment 3 foser (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-04-14 12:19:24 UTC
nope, thats only extra configure options and is ok to be blank
Comment 4 foser (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-04-25 08:49:42 UTC
can't reproduce, closing
