I tried to install [ebuild U ] app-office/dia-0.94-r1 [0.93] -debug -gnome +png +python -static +zlib 3,270 kB but the configure script fails with a strange X error. I am logged in as root via ssh. X is working and DISPLAY=localhost:10.0. It fails during configure: checking local Python configuration... checking for script directory... /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages checking for extension module directory... /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages looks good checking for python module gtk... X11 connection rejected because of wrong authentication. no configure: error: could not find pygtk module !!! Please attach the config.log to your bug report: !!! /var/tmp/portage/dia-0.94-r1/work/dia-0.94/config.log !!! ERROR: app-office/dia-0.94-r1 failed. !!! Function econf, Line 485, Exitcode 0 !!! econf failed !!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, NOT this status message. Yes - X does work - executing xterm results in a new xterm. Disabling X (export DISPLAY=) make the compile work (or at least the configure): checking local Python configuration... checking for script directory... /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages checking for extension module directory... /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages looks good checking for python module gtk... yes checking for headers required to compile python extensions... found checking for libpython2.3.a... found configure: creating ./config.status config.status: creating Makefile config.status: creating lib/Makefile [...] Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. ssh -X root@localhost 2. emerge -u dia Actual Results: does not compile Expected Results: update dia

Are you sure unsetting DISPLAY is a workaround? The information from your config.log doesn't suggest that, and I can't reproduce the bug you're seeing. Please provide you 'emerge info' (and remember to always do it when reporting bugs). Thanks.

Yes, i am sure, that unsetting the DISPLAY works for me. I have installed dia-0.94-r1 successfully. The config.log i provided is the failure log. I will provide a config.log, created by unsetting DISPLAY. (as /var/tmp/portage/dia-0.94-r1/work/dia-0.94/config.log gets deleted automatically when emerge is finished, i killed the emerge manually to retrieve the config.log)

It looks like a problem with your X server authentication. Can you provide your sshd logs? Does the same problem occur when you disable X11 forwarding?
Christian, try "ssh -X -Y". The -Y is sometimes necessary to get "full" X11 forwarding. It fixes problems for me when the messages say something about bad atom pixmaps or widgets ... some ugly error on several lines. Yes, at that moment I can start xterm and similar programs, but some gtk+ stuff fails with this weird message. "-Y" helps.
I just found one of the examples when you need "-Y". See my bug #83315.
Sorry - i am no longer able to reproduce this bug. thanks for your effort. I have not tried it for a while, so i am not able to determine, which (other) packet caused this fault :-(
