I tried to emerge php and as a dependency emerge installs xorg-x11-6.8.0-r4. I do not intend to install a x-system on that machines as it is a designated apache/mysql-server. During build process of x11-6.8.0-r4 the following output is generated: make[3]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/xorg-x11-6.8.0-r4/work/xc/lib/Xi' install -c -m 0755 libXi.so.6.0 /var/tmp/portage/xorg-x11-6.8.0-r4/image//usr/lib + rm -f /var/tmp/portage/xorg-x11-6.8.0-r4/image//usr/lib/libXi.so.6 + ln -s libXi.so.6.0 /var/tmp/portage/xorg-x11-6.8.0-r4/image//usr/lib/libXi.so.6 + rm -f /var/tmp/portage/xorg-x11-6.8.0-r4/image//usr/lib/libXi.so + ln -s libXi.so.6.0 /var/tmp/portage/xorg-x11-6.8.0-r4/image//usr/lib/libXi.so install -c -m 0644 libXi.a /var/tmp/portage/xorg-x11-6.8.0-r4/image//usr/lib ranlib /var/tmp/portage/xorg-x11-6.8.0-r4/image//usr/lib/libXi.a ranlib: /var/tmp/portage/xorg-x11-6.8.0-r4/image//usr/lib/libXi.a: Malformed archive make[3]: *** [install] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/xorg-x11-6.8.0-r4/work/xc/lib/Xi' make[2]: *** [install] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/xorg-x11-6.8.0-r4/work/xc/lib' make[1]: *** [install] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/xorg-x11-6.8.0-r4/work/xc' make: *** [install] Error 2 !!!

No problems with emerge vim, emerge apache or emerge mysql. Neither problems during bootstrap nor emerge system. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge php 2. calculating dependencies... 3. --> xorg-x11-6.8.0-r4 is emerged Actual Results: Error message appears as stated above (see Details) and emerge stops Expected Results: emerge successfully xorg-x11-6.8.0-r4, subsequently all other dependencies for php and finally php itself.

Ok, setting "-X" prevents emerge of xorg-x11 but the problem remains otherwise.
May be related to bug #64129
Is this still reproduceable? Reopen if so.
