This is not an issue with parallel build (I've tried with -j1).

Comment 2 Priit Laes (IRC: plaes) 2012-08-26 06:44:27 UTC
Please disable -ggdb in C{,XX}FLAGS.

https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=91154

This is a limitation of binutils where archive files (.a) cannot be bigger than 4GB.
Comment 3 Maciej Piechotka 2012-08-27 06:07:45 UTC
IIRC -ggdb is safe flag so it should be filtered if it causing problems (or path from linked bug applied).
Comment 4 James Cloos 2012-09-13 23:48:31 UTC
For reference, this also applies to the 1.8.2 and 1.8.3 webkit-gtk ebuilds in portage.  With -g in the flags they also now generate (at least on amd64) ar(5)chives greater than 2³² octets.  1.8.1 was the last which didn’t do that for me.

Of course, the real bugs are upstream’s insistence on creating a static library even when only installing share objects, and the lack of >4G support in the ar(5) symbol tables.

RH’s binutils, at least, includes support for larger ar(5)chives.  Cf:

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=835957#c19

as well as the followup comment.

I believe this was fixed in >=sys-devel/binutils-2.23 (currently masked).
Comment 6 Mike Auty (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-12-02 21:53:32 UTC
This hasn't been fixed as of =binutils-2.23.1, I haven't tried >=binutils-2.23.51.0.1 since they're not even ~ on any arches.  Perhaps this should have a dependency on the masked binutils?  Otherwise every update this will chunter for half an hour before failing for a known reason...

I can confirm that it is working with >=binutils-2.23.51.
Comment 8 John Covici 2012-12-16 21:00:35 UTC
I tried the masked package of binutils, but no joy -- still the file truncated error.  This was with the latestwebkit-gtk 1.10.1-r300.

Have you tried with CFLAGS+="-Wa,--compress-debug-sections"?
Comment 10 Kobboi 2012-12-23 23:09:37 UTC
Bumped into this one as well, with -ggdb set.

I've set CFLAG -g0 and it's built fine.
Comment 12 Alexandre Rostovtsev (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2013-01-01 19:15:36 UTC
Until our binutils is completely fixed, I suppose we will have to call "replace-flags -ggdb -g" in the ebuild.

+  01 Jan 2013; Alexandre Rostovtsev <tetromino@gentoo.org>
+  webkit-gtk-1.10.2-r300.ebuild:
+  Raise build space requirements for webkit with debugging flags to 18GB (bug
+  #417307, thanks to Doug Goldstein). Replace -ggdb with -g until binutils is
+  fixed (bug #432784, thanks to Maciej Piechotka and Priit Laes); users of
+  patched binutils can allow -ggdb usage by adding WEBKIT_GTK_GGDB=yes to
+  make.conf
Comment 13 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2013-12-24 13:09:43 UTC
Per upstream report, we should be able to drop the filtering in latest version
Comment 14 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2015-01-23 17:26:05 UTC
Filtering dropped in 2.6.x that should finally fix this
