I updated my server which I did not for a long time. In the update I upgraded GCC following instructions in gentoo documentation. In the process it needs to update busybox from 1.13.2 to 1.17.4. The problem is the linker cannot find -luuid whereas it is present in /usr/lib64 (libuuid.a and libuuid.so). I emerged e2fsprogs and e2fsprogs-libs just to be sure but it does not seems to help. Google was of little help as well. I probably have something wrong in my config but could not find out what it is and your help is welcome. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: run emerge busybox Expected Results: busybox compiled and system upgraded!
Created attachment 273447 [details] build.log
You should update more often - libuuid is now provided by util-linux. Most likely INVALID.

Looks like util-linux is already uptodate: kimsufi ~ # emerge -av util-linux These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done! [ebuild R ] sys-apps/util-linux-2.19.1 USE="cramfs crypt ncurses nls perl -old-linux (-selinux) -slang (-uclibc) -unicode" 0 kB

OK, attach a build log with V=1, so the failing command can be seen.
Not quite sure on how to "enable" this V=1. Tried: V=1;emerge -v busybox But the resulting build.log is similar to the one already attached? The revelant part seems to be: >>> Source configured. >>> Compiling source in /var/tmp/portage/sys-apps/busybox-1.17.4/work/busybox-1.17.4 ... make -j2 busybox SPLIT include/autoconf.h -> include/config/* HOSTCC applets/usage applets/usage.c: In function 'main': applets/usage.c:52: attention : ignoring return value of 'write', declared with attribute warn_unused_result GEN include/bbconfigopts.h HOSTCC applets/applet_tables GEN include/usage_compressed.h applets/applet_tables.c: In function 'main': applets/applet_tables.c:138: attention : ignoring return value of 'fgets', declared with attribute warn_unused_result GEN include/applet_tables.h HOSTCC applets/usage_pod CC applets/applets.o applets/usage_pod.c: In function 'main': applets/usage_pod.c:74: attention : le format n'est pas une cha?ne litt?rale et pas d'argument de format LD applets/built-in.o x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-ld: cannot find -luuid make[1]: *** [applets/built-in.o] Erreur 1 make: *** [applets_dir] Erreur 2 emake failed Thanks for your time, it is greatly appreciated!
'V=1 emerge busybox' should work, if not, go into WORKDIR and and do 'make V=1'.
Don't report bugs to gentoo if you've emerged using ccache. Turn it off, and try again. There're many reports of compilation failure due to corrupt cache. Can you post your environment file?
(In reply to comment #10) > Don't report bugs to gentoo if you've emerged using ccache. Turn it off, and > try again.

While on occasions ccache related failures happen, usually it's completely harmless. environment file wn't tell much atm, as without full linking command it's hard to tell where the failure comes from (it might be a stale symlink or old version of the lib, but only the command can tell).
You should be able to slip V=1 into MAKEOPTS.
Doing that here, I find that the busybox build doesn't refer to libuuid.so at all, so this is probably something to do with libtool files. Please run `lafilefixer --justfixit' and try again.
Reviewing /etc/make.conf I probably found the problem: LDFLAGS="-luuid" Still do not know how it make its way there... trying to emerge busybox again and I will keep you posted!
OK my mistake (as I thought it could be!) I managed to emerge busybox after removing LDFLAGS="-luuid" in my /etc/make.conf I probably needed it some time ago and forgot to remove it! I close the bug and thank you everyone for the time spent on this one.
