When emerging PHP Accelerator, it says: samwan root # emerge -v dev-php/php-accelerator Calculating dependencies ...done! >>> emerge (1 of 1) dev-php/php-accelerator-1.3.3-r1 to / >>> md5 src_uri ;-) php_accelerator-1.3.3r2_php-4.3.0_linux_i686-glibc2.1.3.tgz !!! ERROR: dev-php/php-accelerator-1.3.3-r1 failed. !!! Function pkg_setup, Line 53, Exitcode 0 !!! There is no build for your machine type (i486-pc-linux-gnu) I installed Gentoo on this server from a generic x86 stage3 tarball (back in 1.4rc4 days), which left the system's CHOST set to i486-pc-linux-gnu, even though it's a Pentium II. The ebuild checks for the specific MACHTYPE value of i686-pc-linux-gnu, and does not consider i486-pc-linux-gnu as i686-pc-linux-gnu. Adding an extra stanza to the case in the ebuild to recognize the i486-pc-linux-gnu as a i686-pc-linux-gnu allows me to emerge successfully and things are working all right now. Please verify if this doesn't break anything and if so, add to portage. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge dev-php/php-accelerator Actual Results: !!!

That would break for anybody trying to use PHP accelerator on i486 and i586, as it's definetly compiled with i686 functions. Go and look at /sbin/fix_libtool_files.sh to see about changing your CHOST.
