Emerge at step 3 builds successfully Expected Results: Current stable package should build successfully. This was found due to running emerge -e world on a couple of systems which both failed to build this package in the same way.

> stabilise request for app-text/linuxdoc-tools-0.9.68-r1 If the maintainers want this, they will file a separate bug; quoted it here such that he sees that you requested it. :)
I hit this. The problem is that in 0.9.21_p11 yyleng is declared and int but should be declared yy_size_t. I'm not sure how this passed stabilization. I'd just stabilize 0.9.68-r1, drop 0.9.21_p11, and be done with. There are no other bugs against linuxdoc-tools.
Please stabilize: =app-text/linuxdoc-tools-0.9.68-r1 Target keywords: amd64 ppc x86
amd64 stable
x86 stable
ppc stable. Last arch, closing
