• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Vye Wilson 2004-07-28 09:28:02 UTC]

I recieved this error when the compile failed: 


creating cache ./config.cache
checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu
checking for gcc... gcc
checking whether the C compiler (gcc -O2 -march=pentium4 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe  -ltiff -L/usr/lib) works... no
configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C compiler cannot create executables.

!!! ERROR: dev-php/mod_php-4.3.8 failed.
!!! Function econf, Line 362, Exitcode 1
!!! econf failed


When I removed pdflib from USE flags and the emerge went just dandy.

(This is my first bug report so if you need anymore information be sure to let me know)

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.add 'pdflib' to USE flags
2.emerge -v mod_php
3.

Actual Results:  
during the configure stage I recieved this output:

creating cache ./config.cache
checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu
checking for gcc... gcc
checking whether the C compiler (gcc -O2 -march=pentium4 -fomit-frame-pointer
-pipe  -ltiff -L/usr/lib) works... no
configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C compiler cannot
create executables.

!!! ERROR: dev-php/mod_php-4.3.8 failed.
!!! Function econf, Line 362, Exitcode 1
!!! econf failed


Expected Results:  
creating cache ./config.cache
checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu
checking for gcc... gcc
checking whether the C compiler (gcc -O2 -march=pentium4 -fomit-frame-pointer
-pipe  -L/usr/lib) works... yes
(continue to install)

I was speaking to one of the developers and he adviced me to do emerge -Duav world in which there was a very large amount of ebuilds that needed to be recompiled and  there are no more issues with this bug.
