https://blogs.gentoo.org/ago/2020/07/04/gentoo-tinderbox/ Issue: media-tv/mythtv calls nm directly. Discovered on: amd64 (internal ref: ci) NOTE: As per QA policy, toolchain tools must not be called directly because they can cause issue in cross-compiling and because is not possible use a different NM implementation (like llvm-nm). To reproduce, please use sys-devel/gcc-config[-native-symlinks], sys-devel/binutils-config[-native-symlinks] and set the NM variable to x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-nm.

I need help fixing this. I found several calls to nm in the upstream configure file for the mythtv package. I guess I need to change it to something else. I have no idea what that fix looks like. Is there an example or some documentation about fixing this. I do not understand how to run the tinderbox test to verify I fixed it.

This should help: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Toolchain/use_native_symlinks. The idea is to use e.g. AM_PROG_AR (https://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/html_node/Public-Macros.html) in the build system and/or $(AR) to respect ir from the environment.
ci has reproduced this issue with version 33.1-r3 - Updating summary.
