Bug 60397 – The Python docutils ebuilds fail with an exception.

• Status: RESOLVED INVALID
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Marti Raudsepp 2004-08-15 01:51:07 UTC]

The dev-python/docutils-0.3-r1 (x86 keyword) and dev-python/docutils-0.3-r1 (~x86 keyword) ebuilds fail. I tried to emerge the x86 ebuild for docutils twice, and ~x86 once. All the attempts failed.

The ebuild for the x86 keyword copied over all the files that were already built.
The ebuild for the ~x86 keyword terminated with the error:
  !!! ERROR: dev-python/docutils-0.3.3-r1 failed.
  !!! Function src_install, Line 62, Exitcode 127
  !!! newbin failed

However, the emerge of docutils (x86 keyword) succeeded on my other Gentoo installations. (?)

For the x86 ebuild, the exception happens right after "::: Processing .txt: include9.txt"

The exception reads:
  OverflowError: long int too large to convert to int

Three last lines of traceback:
  File "/var/tmp/portage/docutils-0.3-r1/work/docutils-0.3/build/lib/docutils/parsers/rst/states.py", line 1987, in directive
    return self.parse_directive(
  File "/var/tmp/portage/docutils-0.3-r1/work/docutils-0.3/build/lib/docutils/parsers/rst/states.py", line 2065, in parse_directive
    block_text, self, self.state_machine)
  File "/var/tmp/portage/docutils-0.3-r1/work/docutils-0.3/build/lib/docutils/parsers/rst/directives/misc.py", line 181, in unicode_directive
    element += nodes.Text(unichr(int(value, 16)))

You can find the full emerge output for the x86 ebuild, including the traceback, from the URL included with this report.
You can also find a scrollback of the ~x86 ebuild at http://rafb.net/paste/results/3Mopsl75.html

As bug #59140 states, a new version of docutils (0.3.5) is already available. (at http://docutils.sourceforge.net/)


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. # emerge =dev-python/docutils-0.3-r1
or # emerge =dev-python/docutils-0.3.3-r1
Actual Results:  
With the x86 ebuild, all I noticed was the missing /usr/bin/docutils-*.py files, 
which are there in my other Gentoo installations. There's probably more.
With the ~x86 ebuild, the emerge process failed with an error.


The ebuild 'dev-python/docutils' is not mentioned in any of the 
'/usr/portage/package.*' files.

Reassigned bug to the Python Gentoo Team <[e-mail]>
Made to depend on bug #59140.

I'm not 100% sure in what I'm doing, please correct me if I'm wrong. :)

[Comment 2 Rob Cakebread (RETIRED) 2004-08-20 09:10:45 UTC]

The errors in your log show that your portage installation broken and missing files from /usr/lib/portage/bin/

Please re-emerge portage then try to emerge docutils.

[Comment 3 Marti Raudsepp 2004-08-21 14:42:20 UTC]

No, re-emergeing Portage didn't help.

Here's what I have in /usr/lib/portage/bin/:
http://www.rafb.net/paste/results/6eqyrK55.html

Yes, '/usr/lib/portage/bin/dobin' is there, although the error says it's not.

[Comment 4 Marti Raudsepp 2004-08-30 09:22:07 UTC]

Ok, I fixed the issue, it was my problem. I had 'source /etc/profile' in /etc/portage/bashrc and it overwrote something important in the environment.
