dev-util/cmake-3.26.3 became stable and will not compile on my system.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.MAKEOPTS=-j1 emerge -a dev-util/cmake
2.Also happens with -j14 but -j1 was done to make errors obvious
3.
Actual Results:

Plese always attach the full build.log.

Please try rebuilding dev-libs/jsoncpp.

build log after emerge -1 dev-libs/jsoncpp

[Comment 6 Francis Norberg 2023-05-16 22:58:26 UTC]

Rebuilt dev-libs/jsoncpp
Now different and much earlier failure to compile

[Comment 7 Sam James 2023-05-16 23:00:34 UTC]

Are you building some packages on your system with clang using libcxx?

[Comment 8 Francis Norberg 2023-05-16 23:22:46 UTC]

If I understand the question, sys-devel/clang-common appears to depend on both sys-devel/clang and sys-libs/libcxx

[Comment 9 Francis Norberg 2023-05-16 23:23:22 UTC]

sys-devel/clang and sys-libs/libcxx depends

[Comment 10 Sam James 2023-05-16 23:27:48 UTC]

Please try: mv /usr/bin/cmake /usr/bin/cmake.bak and then emerge -v1 dev-util/cmake.

[Comment 11 Francis Norberg 2023-05-16 23:36:49 UTC]

Success. 
dev-util/cmake-3.26.3 merged.

[Comment 12 Mike Gilbert 2023-05-17 00:09:57 UTC]

I suspect you have a mix of packages built against libstdc++ and libcxx. Mixing C++ standard libraries will lead to failures like the one you ran into. Don't do that.
