build.log for armv7a-unknown-linux-gnueabihf

Host: x86_64
Target: armv7a

For some reason it compiles to aarch64 just fine.

Are you using busybox[install-symlinks]?

armv7a-unknown-linux-gnueabihf --info busybox
emerge --info busybox

Both say no

But for aarch64:

sys-apps/busybox-1.34.1::gentoo was built with the following:
USE="ipv6 pam -debug -livecd -make-symlinks -math -mdev -savedconfig (-selinux)"
CFLAGS="-O3 -pipe -mcpu=cortex-a53+crypto+crc --param l1-cache-size=32 --param "
CXXFLAGS="-O3 -pipe -mcpu=cortex-a53+crypto+crc --param l1-cache-size=32 --para"

It works fine here with the same tuple and profile. 🤷‍♂️

[Comment 6 tgyt 2023-01-05 21:49:40 UTC]

Tried with 1.9.12_p1, same result

Providing log of successful build can be helpful.

Successful build.log

I ran this:

sudo env CROSS_CMD="ebuild" USE="-sendmail -nls -ssl" armv7a-unknown-linux-gnueabihf-emerge /usr/portage/app-admin/sudo/sudo-1.9.12_p1.ebuild clean install

Same failure. I see difference: in my log /bin/bash is called, but in yours /bin/sh, but I don't thinks this is why it fails.

Key error, as I forgot to paste it in earlier:
```
Usage:  install-sh [flags] source destination
make[1]: *** [Makefile:359: install] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory '/usr/armv7a-unknown-linux-gnueabihf/tmp/portage/app-admin/sudo-1.9.11_p3-r1/work/sudo-1.9.11p3/lib/util'
