I try to update KDE to 3.5.9 . Because kconfig_compiler crashes, I cannot. I thought I was a broken patch, so I tried earlier revisions in ~x86 and I had the same error. Now, I am stuck with KDE 3.5.8 . Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge -1 kdelibs Actual Results: Making all in dnssd /bin/sh: line 1: 10578 Segmentation fault ../kdecore/kconfig_compiler/kconfig_compiler ./kcm_kdnssd.kcfg ./settings.kcfgc make[2]: *** [settings.h] Error 139 make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make: *** [all] Error 2 * * ERROR: kde-base/kdelibs-3.5.9-r4 failed. * Call stack: * ebuild.sh, line 49: Called src_compile * environment, line 4063: Called kde_src_compile * environment, line 2856: Called kde_src_compile 'src_compile' * environment, line 2976: Called kde_src_compile 'src_compile' 'all' 'myconf' * environment, line 2972: Called die * The specific snippet of code: * emake || die "died running emake, $FUNCNAME:make" * The die message: * died running emake, kde_src_compile:make Expected Results: kdelibs is updated to 3.5.9 and I can continue to update KDE.

A few days after I reported the bug, Gentoo 2008.0 was out. I soon had to update my profile because I was using the deprecated 2006.1 profile, but it did not work. So I had to start over with a good old mkfs.ext3 and reinstall (using an hardened 2008.0 stage3 this time). I had no problem emerging KDE 3.5.9 then.
Seems to be a problem to user's system, as there were no acknowledgements. Closing
