Bug 20030 – xterm spontaneously closes when emerging xmms-1.2.7-r20

• Status: RESOLVED INVALID
• Product: Portage Development

[Description Michael Leuchtenburg 2003-04-27 02:27:38 UTC]

When I try to emerge xterm-1.2.7-r20, xterm spontaneously closes. I am running
bash. This ebuild is being called from emerge -u world.

Versions:
xterm: XFree86 4.2.99.903(174)
bash: GNU bash, version 2.05b.0(1)-release (i686-pc-linux-gnu)

Will post log fragment as a comment.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. run emerge -u world (with world such that it wants to update xmms to 1.2.7-r20)
2. 
3.

Actual Results:  
xterm closed, before my very eyes.

Expected Results:  
installed xmms-1.2.7-r20

Portage 2.0.47-r10 (default-x86-1.4, gcc-3.2.2, glibc-2.3.2-r1)

does this only happen with xmms and xterm ?

what if you run `emerge xmms >& xmms-emerge-log` inside of the xterm ?

[Comment 3 Michael Leuchtenburg 2003-04-27 17:04:04 UTC]

It does build fine when I build it in rxvt. Oddly, it also now builds in xterm. I have restarted X since then, but I haven't changed anything else major. The one change that could possible make a difference is putting "alsa" into my USE, but the xmms ebuild does not care about that flag.

And oh yes, I did test multiple times before when it was closing. It actually was reproducible - I didn't just file a bug w/o thinking.

So from my perspective anyways, the problem is fixed, though not explained.

Seems to be a one-time-prob.
