When I try to emerge baselayout-1.9.4-r6 I get this error message: i586-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -o start-stop-daemon -O2 -mcpu=i586 -pipe -DHAVE_ERROR_H -DHAVE_TIOCNOTTY -DHAVE_SETSID start-stop-daemon.c /var/tmp/portage/baselayout-1.9.4-r6/temp/ccss126d.o(.text+0x439): In function `parse_schedule': : undefined reference to `myabort' /var/tmp/portage/baselayout-1.9.4-r6/temp/ccss126d.o(.text+0xe56): In function `run_stop_schedule': : undefined reference to `myabort' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make: *** [start-stop-daemon] Error 1 make: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/baselayout-1.9.4-r6/work/rc-scripts-1.4.16/src' Now, the thing is that I don't think it's a problem with the baselayout as such, as I am also experiencing this problem when trying to compile other programs as well. most of the time it's the same error message: "undefined reference to 'myabort'" but i also get other "undefined reference to *" errors. This makes me think that there is something borked somewhere around the system. I have tried to update glibc and gcc as i thought it might be a problem there, but it didn't help.

as you say, the problem isnt baselayout ... you should go into /var/tmp/portage/baselayout-1.9.4-r6/work/rc-scripts-1.4.16/src/ and run: gcc -E -O2 -mcpu=i586 -pipe -DHAVE_ERROR_H -DHAVE_TIOCNOTTY -DHAVE_SETSID start-stop-daemon.c -o start-stop-daemon.E then post start-stop-daemon.E as an attachment
