Description Florian Klink 2010-12-18 10:10:07 UTC
I'm trying to build sys-apps/coreutils-8.7 on an arm machine, but it fails with 

chroot.o: In function `set_additional_groups':
chroot.c:(.text+0xc): undefined reference to `xstrdup'

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[3]: *** [chroot] Error 1
make[3]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

any ideas why it fails?

Comment 4 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2010-12-21 15:29:42 UTC
your build system is screwed up.  not a bug in coreutils.  seems like your `test` is broken.  try running with FEATURES=-sandbox.  or replace `test` in your PATH with a symlink to busybox and see if it builds.  or drop -fomit-frame-pointer from CFLAGS.

Comment 5 Florian Klink 2010-12-21 16:45:56 UTC
Um... I also had other strange compile errors with other packages that seemed to be caused by a broken coreutils, so I tried to rebuild coreutils which failed...

FEATURES=-sandbox doesn't help, because it already is inside my make.conf.

I now try to build with a symlink from test to busybox, hope that works...
Comment 6 Florian Klink 2010-12-21 18:00:45 UTC
okay, the build went smoothly after adding symlinks from "test" and "sort" to "busybox".

The "sort" and "test" binaries now belong to coreutils again. Thanks :-)

Any ideas how to safely repair the system now? Should a "emerge -e world" be enough?
Comment 7 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2010-12-21 18:25:23 UTC
make sure you can still `emerge coreutils`
Comment 8 Florian Klink 2010-12-21 18:26:58 UTC
i did, thanks for your help! Is there anything else I should take a look at?
Comment 9 Marat Radchenko 2011-02-26 09:15:02 UTC
Interestingly, I also hit this issue (screwed up test and sort). Wonder what caused it.
