(In reply to Tee KOBAYASHI from comment #1) > See https://bugs.gentoo.org/740890 Arrgh, this bdepends exists, because llvm-objdump is needed in the build. Therefore this is an upstream issue? I wonder if we could fake the llvm-objdump by showing a simple symbolic link to the spidermonkey configure srcript using objdump of the gcc compiler suite, like: /usr/bin/llvm-objdump -> /usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/objdump because the objdump from gcc has pretty much the same options like llvm-objdump.

I am just trying: 1. emerge -C sys-devel/llvm-common sys-devel/llvm 2. ln -s /usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/objdump /usr/bin/llvm-objdump 3. created a spidermonkey ebuild without bdepend llvm 4. try to emerge spidermonkey without any of llvm, and this is now beyond any configure script running emerge: --- emerge spidermonkey These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies ........ done!

How can I test this spidermonkey build with enabled USE=test. I have never done this. Because I am sceptical if in deed the ggc objdump is doing the same as the llvm-objdump, therefore I have emerged with USE=test: --- # emerge spidermonkey These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies ....... done!

You can use FEATURES="test" emerge spidermonkey or ebuild $(equery w spidermonkey) test
I had emerged spidermonkey before, so I uses this for test purpose: (In reply to Tee KOBAYASHI from comment #5) > ebuild $(equery w spidermonkey) test The above command builds spidermonkey again and tests for about half an hour. It ended with these two lines: --- PASS >>> Completed testing dev-lang/spidermonkey-78.15.0-r2 --- Conclusion: We can replace /usr/bin/llvm-objdump with the gcc objdump by purging llvm and creating a symlink: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 36 Okt 31 20:54 /usr/bin/llvm-objdump -> /usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/objdump
