Emerge is successfull for me, when it fails for you, for me, I have this following line : i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -I./vutil -I/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/i686-linux/CORE -DXS_VERSION="0.74" -DVERSION="0.74" -fPIC -c -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -Wdeclaration-after-statement -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -I/usr/include/gdbm -O2 -march=i686 -pipe -o lib/version/vxs.o lib/version/vxs.c Can you attach the following file : /var/tmp/portage/dev-perl/version-0.74/temp/build.log ?
Created attachment 166555 [details] The build log I've been trying to find the exact failure point -- nothing obvious so far.
Created attachment 166603 [details] build.log from File-Spec-3.2701 I'm starting to think my perl is broken. I did: emerge -uavND --skip-first world and got this result two packages in, again with something perl related.
Created attachment 166607 [details] Build failure after rebuilding perl I rebuilt perl, ran perl-cleaner, then tried again. Similar error, but note that the segmentation fault happens at a different line number.
Maybe, try do a revdep-rebuild (tool from app-portage/gentoolkit)...
I have now done revdep-rebuild -X revdep-rebuild -- which then blocks because of a series of masked packages. I manually remerge all the packages until I get to PDL, which is a perl package, which fails, in exactly the same way. Last night I ran emerge -e perl in a desperate effort to fix this, but it *still* fails. I've also remerged glibc several times. I'm totally at a loss here. I'll attach the output of revdep-rebuild and 'emerge PDL' here.
Created attachment 166692 [details] revdep-rebuild fails revdep-rebuild fails at a masked package, PDL, which is a perl package.
Created attachment 166694 [details] FileSpec build.log Try to remerge PDL, and it pulls in FileSpec, which fails in the same way as before.
HOORAY! It's fixed! Here's how I did it. 1. I backed up all the perl packages, just in case :) qlist -ICv '(dev-perl|perl-core|virtual/perl)' | xargs -I fish quickpkg =fish 2. Then I removed all the perl packages like so: emerge -aqC $(qlist -ICv '(dev-perl|perl-core|virtual/perl)' 3. Then I attempted to emerge version yet again. It pulled in 13 dependencies and built successfully! Another way of solving this problem might have been to do: emerge -e version thought it would have taken longer.
