Description Bob Johnson 2018-01-06 03:48:45 UTC
Attempting the move to 17.1 (amd64/17.1/desktop/plasma) on my least-critical system following the news item. The system was previously on 17.0/desktop/plasma and up-to-date. Everything went fine up to step 9, where the gcc-6.4 compile failed with the error in the summary. Tried again, failed again at the same point. My /usr/lib32 directory is empty as I would expect after running unsymlink-lib --finish.

Reproducible: Always

Tried ldconfig, then gcc. No go.
Tried rebuilding sys-libs/glibc, then gcc. Still no go.
Tried rebuilding sys-devel/binutils, then gcc. That allowed sys-devel/gcc-6.4.0 to build and install.

Perhaps step #9 on the 17.1 profile change news item should not condition the rebuild of sys-libs/glibc and sys-devel/binutils on switching from profile 13.0, but instead recommend rebuilding gcc, glibc and binutils in every case.

Happens to me as well. Even after re-emerging whole world. 
Even with the latest 6.4.0-r1

It should not be empty. It should be a symlink to 'lib' at this point. Are you sure that --finish didn't report any failures?

This is a completely different error. My guess would be that you hadn't migrated lib at all.

Indeed, sorry for the noise.
Comment 12 Ulenrich 2018-01-08 01:27:39 UTC
I could perfectly change to profile 17.1 when following the NEWS
I came from profile 17.0 : 
I had done all the 17.0 change long before head (emerge -e world)
Perhaps doing the transition 13.0 to 17.1 in one step instead of two steps
is just too much of an effort ?

I don't recall seeing any errors. However, this system has separate /usr/* directories bind-mounted onto an SSD drive, like this in /etc/fstab:

/ssd/opt                /opt            none    bind
/ssd/usr/bin            /usr/bin        none    bind
/ssd/usr/games          /usr/games      none    bind
/ssd/usr/include        /usr/include    none    bind
/ssd/usr/lib32          /usr/lib32      none    bind
/ssd/usr/lib64          /usr/lib64      none    bind
/ssd/usr/libexec        /usr/libexec    none    bind
/ssd/usr/local          /usr/local      none    bind
/ssd/usr/sbin           /usr/sbin       none    bind
/ssd/usr/share          /usr/share      none    bind

This system also has an initramfs due to the separate /usr mounts, so it's possible I ran into a corner case. I eventually got gcc-6.4.0 to recompile itself as noted earlier, and manually removed /usr/lib32 after finishing the news item (and then moved /usr/lib to the SSD and did a bind-mount of that). So far I haven't run into any other problems with 17.1 on this system.

I still have a server (without bind mounts) and my main workstation (with bind mounts) to transition to 17.1 after I more fully test this backup system. I'll log the output unsymlink-lib script when I transition the workstation. If I encounter the same issue I'll post it here.

All of my systems were already at 17.0 before I transitioned my 'test' system to 17.1. I agree that going directly from 13.0 to 17.1 could be fraught with difficulties.

The bind mounts explain why it couldn't replace lib32 with a symlink.
Comment 16 Michał Górny archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2018-01-08 18:50:57 UTC
Ok, I'm going to assume this whole issue boils down to /usr/lib32 being a bind-mount. I think that unsymlink-lib should have thrown an error in this case but maybe rename() works different. I will investigate this further.
Comment 17 Bob Johnson 2018-01-09 00:30:00 UTC
That works for me. The reason I switched to 17.1 so soon on this system was because I wanted to sort out what blew up before 17.1 hit stable and impacted my production systems. Honestly, as one of the separate /usr guys swimming against the systemd tide I knew I was going to be a corner case, and I actually encountered far fewer issues than I expected. Nothing show-stopping so far.

    app-portage/unsymlink-lib: Bump to v10
    
    Bump to v10 that detects mount point at lib32. Sadly, it does not support
    replacing it yet but it should fail early.

I was wrong there. It doesn't stop with an error but merely prints information that it couldn't remove 'lib32' and that you need to replace it with the symlink manually. I suppose you might have missed that.

Given that we support resuming --finish nowadays, maybe I should just make it fatal and ask the user to unmount and then resume.

Yes, it's possible I might have missed that. I remember doing --pretend on the other steps and looking closely at the output, but not on the --finish step. I was just happy it rebooted and I could log back in to KDE :-)

I guess it worked for the most part because most of the system is 64-bit; it was only when it started doing multilib stuff like gcc that issues arose. Since us bind-mount guys will likely bind /usr/lib anyway (as I eventually did), forcing a stop and resume might make it more obvious what needs to be done manually for folks who have separate /usr mounts.

    app-portage/unsymlink-lib: Bump to v11, with lib32 removal fix
    
    Bump to v11 that improves handling of lib32 removal failures. The errors
    are now fatal and request resuming explicitly, rather than outputting
    a warning that is easily missed. This also lets us allow lib32
    to be a mount point again.
    
    This version also tries to give more explicit explanation when lib32
    is actually a mount point. However, the os.path.ismount() function
    does not seem to detect bind mounts, as in the linked bug report.
    
    Closes: https://bugs.gentoo.org/643632
