Bug 43566 – emerging openssl-0.9.7c-r1 fails on vanilla Gentoo 2004.0 install

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Ákos Maróy 2004-03-03 00:29:17 UTC]

I'm trying to make a brand new stage 1 installation of Gentoo Linux 2004.0 on an AMD Athlon XP system. I get through stage 1 fine, but in stage 2 when I'm trying to emerge system, or emerge openssl, I get the following error:

make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/openssl-0.9.7c-r1/work/openssl-0.9.7c'
OSSL_LIBPATH="`cd ..; pwd`"; LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$OSSL_LIBPATH:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH"; DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH="$OSSL_LIBPATH:$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH"; SHLIB_PATH="$OSSL_LIBPATH:$SHLIB_PATH"; LIBPATH="$OSSL_LIBPATH:$LIBPATH"; if [ "linux-elf" = "Cygwin" ]; then PATH="${LIBPATH}:$PATH"; fi; export LD_LIBRARY_PATH DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH SHLIB_PATH LIBPATH PATH; ./destest
make[1]: *** [test_des] Error 139

make: *** [tests] Error 2

!!! ERROR: dev-libs/openssl-0.9.7c-r1 failed.
!!! Function src_compile, Line 134, Exitcode 2
!!! (no error message)




Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. start a stage 1 installation, reach stage 2
2. start emerge system
3. see the error

Actual Results:  
emerging openssl failed.

Expected Results:  
openssl should emerge fine.

I just started a brand new install of Gentoo Linux 2004.0, using:

- universal live CD, install-x86-minimal-2004.0.iso
- stage 1 file, stage1-x86-pie-ssp-2004.0.tar.bz2
- portage file, portage-20040229.tar.bz2

this is an AMD Athlon XP system, my /etc/make.conf is:

CFLAGS="-O3 -march=athlon-xp -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer"
CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu"
USE="dvd alsa cdr"
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"

but the error is the same if I have:

CFLAGS="-O2"

instead of the above.

I tried to emerge an older version, by:

# ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge "=openssl-0.9.7c"

but the result is the same. This is very annoying, as it blocks the installation of the operating system onto my machine.

[Comment 2 Ákos Maróy 2004-03-03 06:09:47 UTC]

finally, the following older version worked:

# ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge "=openssl-0.9.6k"

I wonder what impact it will have on the system though...

[Comment 3 Ákos Maróy 2004-03-04 03:18:20 UTC]

the problems seemed to be the stage1 tarball used, stage1-x86-pie-ssp-2004.0.tar.bz2. when using stage1-x86-20040218.tar.bz2 instead, all works fine.

what is strange though, that I found the pie-ssp in most of the gentoo mirrors, whereas the 'normal' tarball I found only on a few.

Closing, this is related to bug #42373.
