Created attachment 498194 [details] emerge --info '=cross-armv7a-hardfloat-linux-gnueabi/gdb-8.0.1::x-portage' The packages compiles pretty fine with crossdev. make install fails, because it wants to remove "usr/share/locale", which doesn't exist when cross compiling. Fix: In the ebuild script "sys-devel/gdb/gdb-8.0.1.ebuild" rm -r "${ED}"/usr/share/{doc,info,locale} || die add a "force" to the remove: "rm -rf ...."
This was the orignal error: * ERROR: cross-armv7a-hardfloat-linux-gnueabi/gdb-8.0.1::x-portage failed (install phase): * (no error message) * * Call stack: * ebuild.sh, line 115: Called src_install * environment, line 3367: Called die * The specific snippet of code: * rm -r "${ED}"/usr/share/{doc,info,locale} || die; * * If you need support, post the output of `emerge --info '=cross-armv7a-hardfloat-linux-gnueabi/gdb-8.0.1 * the complete build log and the output of `emerge -pqv '=cross-armv7a-hardfloat-linux-gnueabi/gdb-8.0.1: * The complete build log is located at '/var/tmp/portage/cross-armv7a-hardfloat-linux-gnueabi/gdb-8.0.1/t * The ebuild environment file is located at '/var/tmp/portage/cross-armv7a-hardfloat-linux-gnueabi/gdb-8. * Working directory: '/var/tmp/portage/cross-armv7a-hardfloat-linux-gnueabi/gdb-8.0.1/work/gdb-8.0.1' * S: '/var/tmp/portage/cross-armv7a-hardfloat-linux-gnueabi/gdb-8.0.1/work/gdb-8.0.1'
