I use 2004.1 on an AMD Athlon XP and libstdc++.la can be found (as expected) in /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.2 But when emerging gedit (the command I used was ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge gnome), the ebuild script stops with the following error (from memory...) : libtool: grep and sed cannot find /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.2/libstdc++.la which is pretty simple to understand. libtool is trying to find the file in i386-pc-linux-gnu whereas in reality it is in i686-pc-linux-gnu... To solve the problem, I simply made a symbolic link from i686-pc-linux-gnu to i386-pc-linux-gnu and all went well. I then removed the symbolic link and gedit works well in gnome now. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge -sync (done on 17/05/2004 at 12:00 GMT) 2. ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge gnome 3. Actual Results: libtool: grep and sed cannot find /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.2/libstdc++.la Expected Results: Found libstdc++.la in i686-pc-linux-gnu as the other ebuilds do :-) AMD Athlon XP 1800+ 256 MB RAM Building everything without gdm or X being active (of course :-)
i'm quite sure there's something messed on your system and has little todo with gedit. reopen if there's more proof
I had the same problem when emerging gnome from a virgin 2004.1 inst, completely masked before, so it seems to be common. I base my system on a stage3 package, maybe that is the reason ?
Had the bug also, and had to ln -s i686-pc-linux-gnu i386-pc-linux-gnu, then it went fine The bug arises when make reaches plugins/spell directory I've gat a stage3 GRP 2004.1 installation
did any of you mess with the CHOST line in make.conf after installing from a stage 3?
also post emerge info when reporting bugs (always)
Replying to Joe McCann : Personally, I didn't touch the CHOST variable in make.conf (it has always been CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu") By the way, I also installed a stage3 Gentoo. Might be related to that? Avinash
I don't know what to do with this, it doesn't seem to me a gedit bug. Maybe the 2004.1 was partially screwed up, but then i would've expected more reports. Anyway i'm gonna close this on a lack of info basis.
