I can't merge gnome nor kde because of dep merge errors. I beleive I an on gentoo version 1.4 but I may be wrong: uname -a: Linux alpha800 2.4.21-alpha-r1 #8 alpha EV56 GNU/Linux. How do I know for sure? Here are the relavant settings from make.conf: USE="X gtk gnome kde samba ijs hpijs cups s3virge lvm" CHOST="alpha-unknown-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-mcpu=ev5 -pipe -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -frerun-cse-after-loop -frerun-loop-opt -falign-functions=4" CXXFLAGS="-mcpu=ev5 -pipe -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -frerun-cse-after-loop -frerun-loop-opt -falign-functions=4" ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="alpha" VIDEO_CARDS="s3virge" here is the gnome emerge output with error message on dep aspell-0.50.3: g++ -mcpu=ev5 -pipe -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -frerun-cse-after-loop -frerun-loop-opt -falign-functions=4 -o mk-dirs_h mk-dirs_h.o echo '#define PREFIX "/usr"' > dirs.h ./mk-dirs_h /usr DICT_DIR /usr/lib/aspell >> dirs.h make[2]: *** [dirs.h] Error 139 make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... mv -f strtonum.o .libs/strtonum.o make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/aspell-0.50.3/work/aspell-0.50.3/common' make[1]: *** [all] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/aspell-0.50.3/work/aspell-0.50.3/common' make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 !!!

I will try it. What window managers are other gentoo alpha users using sucessfully?
please post more of the error
Mike, I think Steve has provided enough information to work from, thanks. Steve, while I'm looking into the bugs, here are some window managers for you. Personally I'm using sawfish. $ cd x11-wm $ grep -l '^KEYWORDS=.*[^~-]alpha' */*.ebuild | sed 's,/.*,,' | sort -u evilwm fluxbox fvwm metacity plwm sawfish windowmaker
Steve, I could use the output of emerge --info. The aspell ebuilds are working fine for me.
Created attachment 21960 [details] Output of emerge --info
Steve, why are you still using gcc-3.2.3 and glibc-2.3.2-r1? The currently stable versions on alpha are gcc-3.3.2-r2 and glibc-2.3.2-r8. Not that it should matter... I would expect this to work with your versions. Btw, here are the relevant sections from my aspell build: if g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I. -mcpu=ev67 -O3 -pipe -mieee -MT mk-dirs_h.o -MD -MP -MF ".deps/mk-dirs_h.Tpo" \ -c -o mk-dirs_h.o `test -f 'mk-dirs_h.cpp' || echo './'`mk-dirs_h.cpp; \ then mv ".deps/mk-dirs_h.Tpo" ".deps/mk-dirs_h.Po"; \ else rm -f ".deps/mk-dirs_h.Tpo"; exit 1; \ fi ... /bin/sh ../libtool --mode=link g++ -mcpu=ev67 -O3 -pipe -mieee -o mk-dirs_h mk- dirs_h.o g++ -mcpu=ev67 -O3 -pipe -mieee -o mk-dirs_h mk-dirs_h.o mv -f strtonum.o .libs/strtonum.o echo '#define PREFIX "/usr"' > dirs.h ./mk-dirs_h /usr DICT_DIR /usr/lib/aspell >> dirs.h ./mk-dirs_h /usr DATA_DIR /usr/share/aspell >> dirs.h ./mk-dirs_h /usr CONF_DIR /etc/aspell >> dirs.h My best guess is that you're over-optimizing and that's breaking the build. Please try the following CFLAGS="-O3 -pipe -mieee" CXXFLAGS="-O3 -pipe -mieee" emerge aspell You might try something similar for qt (and let us know what happens)
I'm guessing this is broken due to over-optimization. Closing until the submitter provides more information.
