Forgot to say that with USE="-threads" the testsuite passes fine.

Reassigning to maintainer.

[Comment 4 Dane Smith (RETIRED) 2011-01-12 15:33:34 UTC]

Well, I did a little digging. It only happens some of the time (and consequently much less of the time when you're trying to strace it).

Upstream has been e-mailed with the relevant info.

[Comment 5 Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) 2011-02-04 01:34:12 UTC]

Get the same on HPPA. There is little that testthread.cxx does, but the bit shifting immediately caught my eye so I assumed it was an endian problem until I saw this bug report.

Did you get any reply from upstream?

[Comment 7 Toralf Förster 2012-02-27 19:59:36 UTC]

Have the same issue at an stable x86, added upstream too, got no reply, test case fails always at my system:

[Comment 8 Pacho Ramos 2012-03-03 12:10:30 UTC]

Does that test failure imply beecrypt with threads is broken? If yes, we should either fix its support with threads (in that case we need a patch) or drop its support completely. If not, we should skip that broken test.

[Comment 9 Amy Liffey 2017-01-22 14:05:16 UTC]

Is this still valid for 4.2.1-r4?

Thanks

The packages still fails to build, yes. The output is slightly different though. Tested with both gcc 4.9 and 5.4. Attaching the build log in a minute.

And for completeness sake, the only way to build it was to USE -cxx -threads

[Comment 14 Joakim Tjernlund 2017-12-05 23:43:05 UTC]

The error around static_assert looks like c++11 and
gcc 4.9 does not default to c++11 (I think)
Maybe force stdc++11 in ebuild ?

It builds with -std=c++11 in CXXFLAGS

[Comment 16 Joakim Tjernlund 2017-12-06 09:10:00 UTC]

Actually, the static_assert was added by beecrypt-4.2.1-cast-uchar.patch
Maybe wrap that static_assert with
#if __cplusplus >= 201103L
  static_assert(sizeof(jchar) == sizeof(UChar), "jchar and UChar sizes mismatch");
#endif
