Busybox 1.7.4 fails to merge. The ebuild calls "emake" with a conditional "or". As emake cannot be found in the PATH (and the ebuild doesn't specify where it is on the filesystem), it fails by default. As a workaround, I stuck the following variable at the top of the ebuild: emake=/usr/lib/portage/bin/emake ...and then ran the following before doing `emerge --resume`: `ebuild /usr/lib/portage/bin/emake digest` ...but it still fails with the same error. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge busybox (1.7.4) Actual Results: failed merge Expected Results: successful merge The test for emake || die "build failed" is what is failing. "emake" is found on my system, but is not in the $PATH variable: which: no emake in (/usr/lib/ccache/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/opt/bin:/usr/i686-pc-linux-gnu/gcc-bin/3.4.6) -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 638 Nov 9 10:47 /usr/lib/portage/bin/emake* * Messages for package sys-apps/busybox-1.7.4: * Could not locate user configfile, so we will save a default one * * ERROR: sys-apps/busybox-1.7.4 failed. * Call stack: * ebuild.sh, line 1701: Called dyn_compile * ebuild.sh, line 1039: Called qa_call 'src_compile' * ebuild.sh, line 44: Called src_compile * busybox-1.7.4.ebuild, line 158: Called die * The specific snippet of code: * emake busybox || die "build failed" * The die message: * build failed

Negative. The output is identical on my box. Is there anything else I could be looking for? $ /usr/lib/portage/bin/emake make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.

Sigh, if emake wasn't found on your box, you would be unable to compile about 75% of ebuilds in portage. Kindly attach the complete emerge.log here and reopen.

Sorry for any frustration caused... I appreciate someone taking a look at this, and am happy to help with the resolution. Other packages build fine... the only reason I care about this one is because it's being pulled in as part of a world upgrade. Thanks =) -brant
