What version of xtrans do you have installed? Try running 'emerge -1 xtrans' and trying again. I've got xtrans-1.0.1. I have re-emerged it several times now, and 'emerge -1 xtrans' didn't help. And I did a --sync before emerging as well, just in case something had gotten updated. I just tried re-emerging xorg-server-1.0.2-r7 and that fails in exactly the same way. Since that emerged fine sometime long ago, I suppose I must have broken something somewhere. I still have no idea of how to fix it, though... Try re-emerging util-macros, though I doubt that's the problem. If that doesn't work, you can always try the sledgehammer approach of 'emerge -e xorg-x11' - it should bring your system back into a state of consistency. Re-emerging util-macros didn't work. I tried to "emerge -ave xorg-x11" but that actually doesnt work either. This time automake fails when trying to emerge xorg-docs-1.2: * Running automake --add-missing --copy --foreign ... [ !! ] * Failed Running automake ! * * Include in your bugreport the contents of: * * /var/tmp/portage/xorg-docs-1.2/temp/automake-23096.out !!! ERROR: app-doc/xorg-docs-1.2 failed.

Failed Running automake ! !!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call stack if relevant. The log file reported above conatins the following: ***** automake ***** sgml/Makefile.am:41: BUILD_LINUXDOC does not appear in AM_CONDITIONAL sgml/Makefile.am:44: BUILD_PDFDOC does not appear in AM_CONDITIONAL Seems as if my system is more broken than it seemed. Anyway, I'll try the real sledgehammer approach of doing an "emerge -ave world". If that fails to, I'll scream! 'emerge -e world' will likely fail the same way. Doing something like 'USE="-X" emerge -e system' might at least get your system rebuild. This smells a bit like a configuration file issue, which unfortunately may be a bit tricky to track down. Perhaps do a double-check of /etc/env.d for any offending variables. Solved; the problem was not related to xorg-server, but came from a strange /etc/env.d/02locale. Sorry for inconveniences.

Sorry for inconveniences. > Are you offe.holmgren@gmail.com? :P Well, I'm glad someone got it fixed, but for me it's still broken :-). Doing "emerge -ave system" doesn't work either. It breaks on some other package than xorg-server, but I forgot to note which and to find out I'd have to try again and it takes forever before it breaks. Anyway, this seems to be related to my system being severly broken all of a sudden. I'm actually thinking about doing my first reinstall since I first installed gentoo years ago. I don't really know what else to do. Should this bug be closed since it seems to be caused by my system being broken or should I just leave it open and report back when/if I actually solve this thing? We'll close it for now, but please re-open it if the issue still occurs. 'emerge -e system' death is definitely bad. If you do choose to reinstall, don't keep most of your old configuration, especially env.d files. You'll have to add your changes manually and piece-by-piece in case you encounter the problem again. |
