When trying to compile www-client/firefox-50.0 with pgo flag enabled, I obtain the following error : * ERROR: www-client/firefox-50.0::gentoo failed (compile phase): * Usage: addpredict <colon-delimited list of paths> * * Call stack: * ebuild.sh, line 115: Called src_compile * environment, line 5460: Called addpredict '' * ebuild.sh, line 147: Called __sb_append_var 'PREDICT' '' * ebuild.sh, line 138: Called die * The specific snippet of code: * [[ -z $1 || -n $2 ]] && die "Usage: add$(LC_ALL=C tr "[:upper:]" "[:lower:]" <<< "${_v}") <colon-delimited list of paths>" * * If you need support, post the output of `emerge --info '=www-client/firefox-50.0::gentoo'`, * the complete build log and the output of `emerge -pqv '=www-client/firefox-50.0::gentoo'`. * The complete build log is located at '/var/tmp/portage/www-client/firefox-50.0/temp/build.log'. * The ebuild environment file is located at '/var/tmp/portage/www-client/firefox-50.0/temp/environment'. * Working directory: '/var/tmp/portage/www-client/firefox-50.0/work/firefox-50.0' * S: '/var/tmp/portage/www-client/firefox-50.0/work/firefox-50.0' It seems that the following lines of the ebuild file in the src_compile() function are causing the failure: # Firefox tries to use dri stuff when it's run, see bug 380283 shopt -s nullglob cards=$(echo -n /dev/dri/card* | sed 's/ /:/g') if test -z "${cards}"; then cards=$(echo -n /dev/ati/card* /dev/nvidiactl* | sed 's/ /:/g') if test -n "${cards}"; then # Binary drivers seem to cause access violations anyway, so # let's use indirect rendering so that the device files aren't # touched at all.

I'm having the same problem as symptoms. I was able to resolve the problem by removing the pgo flag from firefox.
I think gimp had a similar problem. the media-gfx/gimp-2.9.4 ebuild does this: # Bugs #569738 and #591214 local nv for nv in /dev/nvidia-uvm /dev/nvidiactl /dev/nvidia[0-9] ; do [[ -e "${nv}" ]] && addwrite "${nv}" done addwrite /dev/dri/ # bug #574038 addwrite /dev/ati/ # bug 589198 addwrite /proc/mtrr # bug 589198
or maybe not. Moving "addpredict "${cards}"" up like you did in your example, will simply result in it never being executed since you don't have any of the listed bin_cards (e.g. if using nvidia or amd binary drivers). ${cards} is empty since you seem to have direct rendering disabled for your intel gpu. So one solution would be to enable that. The other option would be to replace addpredict "${cards}" by something like [[ -n "${cards}" ]] && addpredict "${cards}" this should catch the case where direct rendering is disabled and no binary drivers are present.
(In reply to Sven B. from comment #4) > [[ -n "${cards}" ]] && addpredict "${cards}" Yes, this is a proper fix. Thanks, applied in git commit 53b80a8d0b9a3eb6c20a3e9c56add2381a1d91dc.
