Bug 48228 – x11-base/xfree-4.3.0-r6 fails "Can't create api_noop.o: No such file or Directory

• Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Joe Eversole 2004-04-18 08:41:21 UTC]

When emerging x11-base/xfree-4.3.0-r6 (same thing happens with -r5), the installation errors out with information contained in the next comment. I will also attach the portage log (bz2'd) and my portage info.

I am experiencing a problem as well on bug 48191, also in the OpenGL section, but, the error is completely different. Could they be related?

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge xfree

Actual Results:  
The compile errors out.

Expected Results:  
Installation of XFree

I recompiled the machine from Stage 1 and the build still errors out at the same place.

[Comment 5 Joe Eversole 2004-04-27 18:40:29 UTC]

I believe this was related to a bug in the tail.c file for Reiser4 that is included in ck-sources-2.6.4-r2. I used a kernel with a newer version of Reiser4 and this problem was resolved.
