Please post the build log.
which file exactly are you asking, may i ask? can you give me a possible directory, or/and a name, please?
(In reply to comment #3) > which file exactly are you asking, may i ask? can you give me a possible > directory, or/and a name, please? You posted it yourself in the Description: * A complete build log is located at '/var/tmp/portage/app-mobilephone/gnokii-0.6.22-r2/temp/build.log'.
Please reopen this bug when you have attached the build log.

Reopening as requested..
Looks like a parallel make problem. May (or may not) be related to these lines in Makefile.global.in: MAKE = @MAKE@ %.lo: %.c $(LIBTOOL) --mode=compile $(CC) $(CFLAGS) $(CPPFLAGS) -o $@ -c $< %.a %.la: $(MAKE) -C $(@D) $(@F) (flameeyes's blog suggests it may).
is there anything i can do to verify it?
You may try adding -j1 to the ebuild in src_compile (or you could temporarily set your MAKEOPTS to -j5).
(In reply to comment #11) > You may try adding -j1 to the ebuild in src_compile > > (or you could temporarily set your MAKEOPTS to -j5). > it is already -j5, since i am using a Q6600 - quadcore.
The point is - reducing.
OK, comment 11 had a typo, but a rather obvious one. The second was meant to j1 too.
interestingly enough, i can not reproduce the error now.. i just did "emerge gnokii" and it is installed without error... i did not change MAKEOPTS variable, did not change anything,.. may be a few USE flags (such as bindist, custom-cflags, ..) but none of them are regarding gnokii package. didn't understand. though.. i think i must resolve this bug as invalid?? what do you say?
Not quite.The problem with parallel make bugs is that sometimes they are not reproducible, as they happen cause of a race condition. As such timing may be important and ccache may throw it off (something got left there after first attempts).
According to Diego, there are no make parallelism problems in gnokii (see bug 235999), therefore I will close this as WORKSFORME. Reopen the bug if you manage to reproduce it with a frequency bigger than one out of 20 tries. Of course, you need to test that on a multi-core box.
I can reproduce this quite reliably (10 out of 10 tries) on a 6-core machine with MAKEOPTS="-j". I guess Diego got lucky once, but didn't look too closely at the build system. With -j1 every build succeeds. If you have trouble reproducing it you could try with MAKEOPTS="-j" too. Diego, could you have another look?
It hasn't failed on the tinderbox either, but I'll check this out tonight and provide a patch.
Hm, I cannot reproduce on my 8-core with make -j. Can you attach your build log? Because fromt he one for 0.6.22 I can't see anything similar, and I need to see the actual failure to be able to find the problem :/

AAAh okay I see where this comes from, my mistake for not providing version numbers there. I always talk about ~arch when I file an unversioned bug. 0.6.26+ has parallel make fixed, 0.6.22 doesn't. I've restored -j1 on the stable ebuild.
