• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Roel Bouwman 2004-11-19 03:59:13 UTC]

Emerge hangs while emerge --update world on Net-DNS, message on screen: You have a working compiler. The message stays there for hours and there is no action at all.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge --sync
2. emerge --update world
3.

Actual Results:  
Calculating world dependencies ...done!
>>> emerge (1 of 121) dev-perl/Net-DNS-0.40 to /
>>> md5 src_uri ;-) Net-DNS-0.40.tar.gz
>>> Unpacking source...
>>> Unpacking Net-DNS-0.40.tar.gz to /var/tmp/portage/Net-DNS-0.40/work
>>> Source unpacked.
Testing if you have a C compiler and the needed header files....
gcc -O2 -march=athlon-xp -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe   -c -o compile.o compile.c
You have a working compiler.

//here i press ctrl-c

Created attachment 47270 [details]
same problem since Net-DNS-0.3x

last version I can emerge / compile is Net-DNS-0.22-r1.ebuild

libperl_rebuild script has same problem.

[Comment 2 Andreas Kobara 2005-01-04 05:43:18 UTC]

It's an easy DNS timeout problem.

Just put www.google.com in your localhost line in /etc/hosts
and the emerge will do fine. (This is really bad for people not
connected to the internet, who does this !)

OK, tests are now disabled for anyone not using the FEATURE maketest. Thanks for your patience,
