If try to install =x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-352.63 with multilib, it compiles successfully, but fails to install.

> ERROR: x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-352.68::gentoo failed (install phase):

> Call stack:
>     ebuild.sh, line 133:  Called src_install

One workarround I found, is to comment the line 371 of the file /usr/portage/x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers/nvidia-drivers-352.68.ebuild

This is the patch/workarround I used:

Where is your build log?

build.log

This appears to come from your profile (emerge --info):
ABI_X86="64 32"

but then it says at the end:

x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-352.68::gentoo was built with the following:
USE="X gtk2 gtk3 multilib tools -acpi -pax_kernel -uvm" ABI_X86="64"

I guess multilib.eclass finds the former and assumes two ABIs, and then in the ebuild it's correct in dying since not all ABIs have been handled by the time it checks.

Maybe you have something special set in your local package.use?

[Comment 7 Jonathan Callen (RETIRED) 2016-02-01 01:53:41 UTC]

It looks like the issue here is that the ABI variable is set to "x86_64 x86_32".  This is obviously incorrect, as the value of ABI should be a single ABI name like "amd64" and should be the same as your current DEFAULT_ABI (which is "amd64").  Please make sure that you are not setting this variable in make.conf (you want to set ABI_X86, not ABI).

You are right. That was the problem.

I changed ABI="x86_64 x86_32" to ABI_X86="64 32" in my make.conf and then the bug (i.e. my mistake) disappeared.
