bootstrap aborts during emerging gcc-3.3.4-r1 while applying patch 81_all_gcc-uclibc-3.3-100-conf.patch.bz2. The output in /var/tmp shows "No file to patch. Skipping patch" for every single part of the patch. I don't have uclibc in USE and this error makes it impossible to compile gentoo.
I can confirm, I get this too :(
same here with amd64
Same here... Dual PIII 550, Minimal-Gentoo-Install-2004.2 The ebuild applies the uclib patch, although I have "-uclib" in my USE flags.
the same error on Pentium4
same thing on a Pentium M
same thing on Dual Pentium III
same on a IBM T42 laptop
Works now here. I think the reason was an error (?) in the quickinstall guide http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gentoo-x86-quickinstall.xml After "emerge sync", a second "env-update; source /etc/profile" should be done because without an existing portage tree, env-update can't create the profiles-symlink. Just execute "env-update" before bootstrapping, it should work this way. Greetings Elias P.
Argh, didn't work, I was too fast in posting... ignore the above post, Sorry Elias P
Seems to work if you bootstrap.sh, then when it crashs, do a emerge-webrsync, emerge gcc-3.3.4-r1, then bootstrap again.
One would've thought this kind of thing wouldn't happen anymore...
Same issue for me on a pentium4 it's the same problem when using gcc-3.3.4-r2 or emerge --nodeps gcc. I'll locally mask the sys-devel/gcc-3.3.4-r1 and then bootstrap again I hope it will work
Bit of a showstopper, this. Looks like the emerge-webrsync fix is now not working either probably due to the servers syncing up to date or some such. Either way, just gotta sit here mid-install waiting for a fix and refreshing the forum page.
this should be fixed now. feel free to reopen if it's not
