Here is the error I have when I try to compile XMMS on my Digital PWS 433au : make[2]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/xmms-1.2.7-r20/work/xmms-1.2.7/po' PATH=../src:$PATH /usr/bin/xgettext --default-domain=xmms --directory=.. \ --add-comments --keyword=_ --keyword=N_ \ --files-from=./POTFILES.in \ && test ! -f xmms.po \ || ( rm -f ./xmms.pot \ && mv xmms.po ./xmms.pot ) /usr/bin/xgettext: Non-ASCII string at Input/tonegen/tonegen.c:50.

ERROR: media-sound/xmms-1.2.7-r20 failed. !!! Function src_compile, Line 129, Exitcode 2 !!! (no error message) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. USE="-gnome -opengl" emerge xmms 2. 3. Actual Results: Compilation error Expected Results: Compilation Here are my cflags "-mcpu=ev56 -O3 -pipe"
I tried changing my cflags to "-mcpu=ev5 -O3 -pipe", compilation still fails. Then I tried without the USE="-gnome -opengl", and it also does not compile.
Well, I resolved the problem. By default, Gentoo-Alpha wants to install the xmms-1.2.7-r20 ebuild. I tried forcing the way to xmms-1.2.7-r25 with the following command : emerge /usr/portage/.../xmms-1.2.7-r25 and compilation just finished fine. Could it be possible to tell Gentoo-Alpha to choose r25 by default, instead of r20 (and maybe removing r20 from the ebuilds in portage) ?
