Description pasi.valminen 2002-12-15 06:59:10 UTC
Done bootstrap.sh and started to emerge system. While building perl-5.6.1-r9 noticed this:
<clip>
base/if..............ok
base/lex.............FAILED at test 7
Failed a basic test--cannot continue.
make: *** [test] Error 29

>>> Install perl-5.6.1-r9 into /var/tmp/portage/perl-5.6.1-r9/image/ category sys-devel
</clip>
The ebuild won't die on this error but merges the package into /. (Building from stable portage tree so i have gcc 3.2.1 and glibc 2.3.1-r2)

which version of db is this with? (is this even still a problem? i notice you 
said it did emerge right - does it seem to check out right? perl -v, perl -V 
both yield appropriate output?)

I have db of version 3.2.9-r1 and no probs with that at least such that I could
link with this one. 

Both perl -v and perl -V worked fine. 

Now I've emerged perl 5.8.0 since it fixed openjade compilation bug that exists
with perl-5.6.1-r9. (Bug #11986) Needed my gnome installed...
