I'm on a gcc 3.2 (if it matters), and get this error when building the DBD-mysql module: server2 root # emerge DBD-mysql Calculating dependencies ...done! >>> emerge dev-perl/DBD-mysql-2.1004-r2 to / >>> md5 ;-) DBD-mysql-2.1004.tar.gz >>> Unpacking source... >>> Unpacking DBD-mysql-2.1004.tar.gz >>> Source unpacked.

Corrected ebuild and patch submitted. If it gets to your end and all looks good, please either close this ticket or let me know. Michael

I am also having a problem building version dev-perl/DBD-mysql-2.1013. The reason may be a missing file from the files directory. the makemaker.patch file is missing: bash-2.05a# emerge dev-perl/DBD-mysql Calculating dependencies ...done! >>> emerge dev-perl/DBD-mysql-2.1013 to / Version is: 5.6.1 >>> md5 ;-) DBD-mysql-2.1013.tar.gz Version is: 5.6.1 >>> Unpacking source... >>> Unpacking DBD-mysql-2.1013.tar.gz /usr/sbin/ebuild.sh: /usr/portage/dev-perl/DBD-mysql/files/makemaker.patch: No such file or directory >>> Source unpacked.

Still a no-go for moi. Perhaps this is the problem: >>> Unpacking source... >>> Unpacking DBD-mysql-2.1013.tar.gz /usr/sbin/ebuild.sh: /usr/portage/dev-perl/DBD-mysql/files/makemaker.patch: No such file or directory >>> Source unpacked.
the same bug on my system with DBD-mysql-2.1013
It's always a good idea for me to actually include the patch in my commits. You should have a patch file in your portage trees shortly, sorry about that.
Got the patch - works great. Thanks! Marking as fixed.
