• Status: VERIFIED FIXED

[Description Douglas R. Hoffman 2005-04-25 19:55:40 UTC]

When I emerge LVM2 i get an errour regarding previous declaration of list_empty

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
 1. explode stage1
 2. copy over resolve.conf
 3. chroot
 4. tweak make.conf
 5. export FEATURES="-buildpkg"
 6. USE="-*" emerge --oneshot --nodeps ccache
 7. USE="-*" emerge dev-lang/icc
 8. install my icc license file
 9. cd /usr/portage/ && scripts/bootstrap.sh
10. emerge --emptytree system (as per handbook)
11. emerge sys-boot/grub app-admin/syslog-ng sys-fs/reiserfsprogs sys-fs/lvm2
12. error hits when lvm2 is emerged...

I am having the same exact problem on a x86 machine. I can't continue with my install until I can resolve this. 

[Comment 2 Kyle Williams 2005-04-26 22:02:27 UTC]

According to this thread http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-329589-highlight-keywords.html
updating your headers should fix it.

run this command

echo "sys-kernel/linux-headers ~x86" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords && emerge linux-headers

[Comment 3 Douglas R. Hoffman 2005-04-27 01:58:24 UTC]

ah, i have 2.6.8-r2 headers working fine with lvm2...  however the newly updated 2.6.8.1-r2 are not lvm2 happy.  This problem *appears* to have the same root symptoms as bug#86968 (i.e. empty_list)

Regardless, the standard install does not currently work and I assume there is a good reason 2.6.8.1=r4 is still masked for all processors except amd64...

[Comment 4 SpanKY 2005-04-27 05:56:25 UTC]

try 2.6.11 headers

[Comment 5 Joshua Hoblitt 2005-04-28 13:51:49 UTC]

I can confirm that this issue also occurs on amd64 and that upgrading to sys-kernel/linux-headers-2.6.11 resolved the issue.

[Comment 6 Tim Yamin (RETIRED) 2005-04-29 10:38:46 UTC]

Closing as fixed - either upgrade to 2.6.11 or emerge sync and re-merge 2.6.8.1 headers; please reopen if issue still exists in 2.6.8.1 after sync and remerge. Thanks.

[Comment 7 Douglas R. Hoffman 2005-04-29 21:01:29 UTC]

I reluctantly upgraded to 2.6.11 tonight and LVM2 compiles just swimmingly.  Thanks for the Advice and Time.
