Bug 16502 – emerge hangs trying to merge audacity with gtk2 in USE flags

• Product: Portage Development
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

[Description narendra sankar 2003-02-27 16:54:28 UTC]

This bug seems similar to the one that was impacting perl-5.8.0 and portage.
I have gtk2 in my USE flags. audacity cannot compile against gtk2. However
when I try to emerge audacity it hangs with the following message.

emerge audacity
Calculating dependencies ...done!
>>> emerge (1 of 1) media-sound/audacity-1.1.1-r1 to /
>>> md5 ;-) audacity-src-1.1.1-3.tgz
>>> Unpacking source...
 * 

If I merge audacity using USE="-gtk2" emerge audacity, then things work ok.

I have the latest unstable portage - 2.0.47-r7

I read on the gentoo forums that this bug was supposed to be fixed in .47-r7.
However I still see this. Basically logger hangs and if I kill it the emerge
goes ahead and finally prints the error message that I need USE="-gtk2"


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.update portage to 2.0.47-r7
2.emerge audacity
3.

Actual Results:  
Calculating dependencies ...done!
>>> emerge (1 of 1) media-sound/audacity-1.1.1-r1 to /
>>> md5 ;-) audacity-src-1.1.1-3.tgz
>>> Unpacking source...
 * 
 Emerge hangs

Expected Results:  
Should have printed error message that audacity cannot be built with USE="gtk2"

Portage 2.0.47-r7 (default-x86-1.4, gcc-3.2.2, glibc-2.3.2_pre1-r0)

Nick, the eerror "" line is causing this.
