Description Daniel "Fremen" Llewellyn 2006-01-16 07:04:10 UTC
I cannot get any ebuilds that utilise the automake system (such as xine-lib and coreutils) to compile. emerge stops and bombs out with:

==========

 * Running automake --add-missing --copy ...
/usr/portage/eclass/autotools.eclass: line 156: 23471 Segmentation fault      $@ >>${STDERR_TARGET%/*}/$1-${STDERR_TARGET##*/} 2>&1                       [ !! ]

 * Failed Running automake !
 *
 * Include in your bugreport the contents of:
 *
 *   /var/tmp/portage/xine-lib-1.1.1-r3/temp/automake-22557.out


!!! ERROR: media-libs/xine-lib-1.1.1-r3 failed.
!!! Function autotools_run_tool, Line 177, Exitcode 0
!!! Failed Running automake !
!!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, NOT this status message.

==========

This is a fresh install (as of two days ago) of 2005.1-r1. I've tried removing memory to see if it is a faulty stick of RAM, but I'm getting the same results with both DIMMs in there on their own. (fails with stick 1 and 2 inserted, 1 inserveted and 2 removed, and also 2 inserted and 1 removed). This either means that it's not a memory problem or both DIMMs are faulty, which I seriously doubt, as they are both brand new (as of 1st Jan 2006). I have also tried with WANT_AUTOMAKE=1.8 and WANT_AUTOMAKE=1.7, but both of these segfault also.

emerge --info follows:
