Please attach the entire build log to this bug report.

[Comment 2 Mirko Langisch 2013-11-14 18:49:09 UTC]

this is fixed by latest commit in dietlib-cvs
so we need a new snapshot of dietlibc, maybe

(if i remember correctly it used to work, if dietlibc was compiled
with <=sys-devel/gcc-4.6... so some kind of toolchain breakage maybe)

[Comment 3 Mirko Langisch 2013-11-14 18:50:46 UTC]

latest version of util-vserver is 0.30.216-pre3054, btw, please version-bump

[Comment 4 BRULE Herman 2013-11-18 01:58:45 UTC]

I confirm, it's due here to dietlibc and gcc 4.7

[Comment 5 Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) 2014-01-16 14:35:48 UTC]

It shouldn't depend on dev-libs/dietlibc at all, by the way.

> It shouldn't depend on dev-libs/dietlibc at all, by the way. 

Why? I agree, we should be able to build against uclibc and musl
as well, but linking against glibc exposes some additional security flaws.

We just need an up2date snapshot of dietlibc, because this
issue is fixed in cvs.

[Comment 7 Ivan Iraci 2014-04-03 14:32:47 UTC]

Same problem here, also with util-vserver-0.30.216_pre3060.

ebuild to compile dietlib from git

Use this ebuild to install the latest Git revision of dietlibc, which fixes the problem with util-vserver. It uses unofficial Github mirror of the CVS repository (which is currently down).

util-vserver compiles fine with your dietlibc ebuild.

Maybe it should be pulled into the portage tree.

[Comment 10 Heiko Steindl 2014-06-16 12:17:02 UTC]

Maybe this patch could fix this problem? (I've not tested it)

[Comment 11 Patrick Lauer 2014-07-29 05:28:52 UTC]

This one is the same as the other bug, should be fixed with util-vserver-0.30.216_pre3038-r1
