Description Agostino Sarubbo gentoo-dev 2020-05-25 07:17:52 UTC
This is an auto-filed bug because net-misc/megatools calls ar directly.
The issue was originally discovered on amd64, but it may be reproducible on other arches as well.
If you think that a different summary clarifies the issue better, feel free to change it.
Attached build log and emerge --info.

NOTE:
If you think it doesn't make sense fix these type of issues, I'd like to point out that won't be possible use a different AR implementation (like llvm-ar) by setting the AR variable. So this issue has been reproduced by setting the AR variable to x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-ar and by removing the /usr/bin/ar binary.

    net-misc/megatools: respect 'AR' variable
    
    use AM_PROG_AR to default to standard AR discovery
    instead of make's 'ar'.
