Installed Gentoo 2005.0 today using 'install-x86-minimal-2005.0.iso', 'stage2-i686-2005.0.tar.bz2' and the handbook. No problems here. After the installation, reboot and 'emerge --sync', the 'emerge xorg-x11' failed giving the following last lines: i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -o pswrap -O2 -march=i686 -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-strict-aliasing -ansi -pedantic -Wno-return-typ-w -L../../exports/lib main.o psw.o pswstring.o spwsemantics.o -lfl -Wl,-rpath-link,../../exports/lib /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.5../../../../i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: cannot find -lfl collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[4]: ***[pswrap] Error 1 --- Checked the gentoo handbook again; I did not skip a step. So can anybody explain/fix this error? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. install stage 2 i686 following the handbook 2. emerge --sync 3. emerge xorg-x11 Actual Results: Nothing much, a second try gave same output. I will try to get that. No X11, and no links2/lynx, forced a reboot to w***s to make a bugreport.
Did you "emerge -e world" as stated in the handbook?
No I did not. Are we talking about the same handbook? 'emerge -e world' is not mentioned in the handbook-x86. Thanks for your suggestion. Will try now.
Six hours of compiling later: problem solved! Thanks!
