emerge log

[Comment 2 Marcus D. Hanwell (RETIRED) 2006-11-27 07:19:23 UTC]

Looks like the error is due to,

base64.C:161: error: exception handling disabled, use -fexceptions to enable

I can see -fno-exceptions in the build lines but it does not appear to be coming from your CFLAGS. I can't reproduce the error here, something strange on your system or may be a hardened error?

[Comment 3 Christian Knieling 2006-11-28 13:19:51 UTC]

I've experienced the same problem with boinc-5.5.6:

The line "^MYSQL_CFLAGS=.*" in the Makefile beneath /var/tmp/portage/boinc-5.5.6/work/boinc-5.5.6/lib contains the flag "-fno-exeption". I've started the emerge process and delayed (CTRL-Z) it after the configure step. I removed this flag from that line and went on with compiling (fg). It ran through though. Can't tell so far if there is any drawback or unexpected behavior.

[Comment 4 Marcus D. Hanwell (RETIRED) 2007-01-06 20:01:10 UTC]

I can't see where that -fno-exeption and don't seem to be able to reproduce the bug here. I am using an ~amd64 system to test on using GCC 4.1. Is your system also a hardened system? I don't get where that flag is coming from in the boinc sources either - I can't see it hardcoded anywhere.

Can anyone else spot it?
