Bug 104307 – compilation x11-drm-20050502 fails -- file drm.o missing

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

[Description Jean-Sébastien Légaré 2005-08-30 14:55:41 UTC]

The compilation stops because it tries to copy a .o file that
does not exist.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge x11-drm-20050502
2.bang!
3.

Actual Results:  
compilation failed

Expected Results:  
installed successfully

I changed my hardware recently. I decided to do a software upgrade at the
same time by upgrading all my apps and my kernel (from 2.4 to 2.6). The gentoo 
migration guide from linux 2.4 to 2.6 recommends first to update all installed
packages. I changed my USE flags to disable stuff relative to my old hardware
and then started the full update procedure. 

Basically I did 'emerge --sync' and then 'emerge -uND world'.

x11-drm is one of the packages that needs to be updated but compilation fails.

I am currently running the same kernel I had with my old hardware. The only
relevant hardware change relative to this package is my graphics card. 

I had a matrox G450 but now I switched for an nVidia geForce4.

I find it kind of bad that x11-drm fails to compile, since it will be useless 
when I finish compiling my 2.6 kernel.

Here is my 'emerge --info':

[Comment 1 Joshua Baergen (RETIRED) 2005-08-31 18:29:29 UTC]

This is a duplicate bug.  In the other bug it's determined to be a 2.4 kernel
problem.  If you really care about getting this updated before migrating look at
the description and comment #5 on the original bug.  Otherwise I wouldn't worry
about it.
