Description Jeremy Olexa (darkside) (RETIRED) archtester gentoo-dev Security 2007-09-24 18:31:02 UTC
While emerging pkgconfig 0.22 it will compile fine then give me a QA notice during the install_qa_check. Below is the error, the code seems to compile fine, at least it completes.

 * QA Notice: Package has poor programming practices which may compile
 *            fine but exhibit random runtime failures.
 * gstrfuncs.c:675: warning: implicit declaration of function `strsignal'

 * Function `strsignal' implicitly converted to pointer at gstrfuncs.c:675

I'm using portage as part of the prefix overlay so this is a new(er) version of portage. It seems that the install_qa_check function is checking for implicit pointers and then dieing if its on a 64bit machine.

FEATURES="stricter" is not intended for end users.

Comment 2 Jeremy Olexa (darkside) (RETIRED) archtester gentoo-dev Security 2007-09-24 18:38:50 UTC
Jakub,
stricter is not set, take a look at my FEATURES. This is a problem with the source code I think.
Comment 3 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-09-24 18:48:54 UTC
And we need two bugs for the same issue exactly why? (Complain to prefix folks about this being fatal by default).

Comment 4 Fabian Groffen gentoo-dev 2007-09-24 23:07:03 UTC
I have no clue why this is fatal by default, but it is correct to be fatal, if you read the error message.

The patch to this error should be just to include <signal.h> in the offending file somewhere.

assigning to alt@gentoo.org per grobian's personal email.
Comment 6 Fabian Groffen gentoo-dev 2007-09-25 12:46:27 UTC
Jeremy, what I find worrying, is that you have LDFLAGS set, whereas your CFLAGS is unset.  I'd expect the other way around, and in particular don't like the value of your LDFLAGS.  What's in there may cause this bug.

Hmm, I thought I had CFLAGS set, I will double check that value and try again when I am able to and get back to you. As for the LDFLAGS, I just followed the linux bootstap guide however I took out the bash expansion because it wasn't expanding right and I was too lasy to manually expand it.
Comment 8 Jeremy Olexa (darkside) (RETIRED) archtester gentoo-dev Security 2007-09-26 14:05:43 UTC
Same results with the LDFLAGS expanded out:

LDFLAGS="-L/home/jolexa/portage/linux-64/usr/lib64 -L/home/jolexa/portage/linux-64/usr/lib -Wl,-rpath=/home/jolexa/portage/linux-64/usr/lib64 -Wl,-rpath=/home/jolexa/portage/linux-64/usr/lib -L/home/jolexa/portage/linux-64/lib64 -L/home/jolexa/portage/linux-64/lib -Wl,-rpath=/home/jolexa/portage/linux-64/lib64 -Wl,-rpath=/home/jolexa/portage/linux-64/lib"

CFLAGS is not set on purpose. Still bootstrapping the system. CPPFLAGS is set as:
CPPFLAGS=-I/home/jolexa/portage/linux-64/usr/include

Suggestions on changing the LDFLAGS? I'm not very familar with them. Thanks.
Comment 9 Fabian Groffen gentoo-dev 2007-09-26 15:22:32 UTC
I see you are in the bootstrapping phase.  It may be problematic here because you use a compiler which is not under our control.  What phase of the bootstrapping are you?

Ahh, right. Fixed this issue by emerging gcc 4.2.0. Sorry for all the havok - I didn't know that this would cause an issue. Closing as "INVALID"


Comment 11 Matt Turner gentoo-dev 2008-05-14 23:32:20 UTC
An additional note:

I witnessed this when a user mistakenly used the developer profile, which pulled in FEATURES="stricter"

Switching to a desktop profile fixed it for him.
