Bug 122833 – emerge lighttpd exits without an error message

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED INVALID

[Description Janosch Kalateh 2006-02-14 12:33:16 UTC]

Hi I am trying to install the 1.4.x version of lighttpd. 1.3.16 runs fine.
When I do an "emerge lighttpd" after setting "www-servers/lighttpd ~x86" in /etc/portage/package.mask, emerge just exits after the md5-checking without any error message.

root@server:/usr/portage/www-servers/lighttpd#emerge lighttpd

I also tried the other ebuilds from the 1.4.x tree. Same thing.

I got it fixed. It is more likely a problem with emerge than an error in the ebuild. When I emerged lighttpd with -php, it started compiling and didn't just exit. I started investigating and ended up replacing dev-php/php-4.4.0 and php-cgi-4.4.0 with dev-lang/php-5.0.5 and it worked. I think emerge shows some really weird behaviour by just exiting and not printing any error message.

Similar situation with net-p2p/mldonkey when compiling with +gd and gd isn't compiled with +truetype, emerge shouldn't just exit without giving out any warnings. It should print an error message. The relevant code is here:

    if use gd && !(built_with_use media-libs/gd truetype); then
        eerror "media-libs/gd must be built with the 'truetype' to compile"
        eerror "mldonkey with gd support"
        die "Recompile media-libs/gd with enabled truetype USE flag"
    fi

Anything wrong with my emerge?

I have no earthly idea what may have caused that unfortunately.  Closing INVALID since it has nothing to do with lighttpd itself.
