Bug 18765 – yaboot not making (missing compile variable?)

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Aaron 2003-04-04 16:16:07 UTC]

when attempting to update yaboot to version 1.3.10-r2, the compile fails with 
the following errors:

Calculating dependencies ...done!

and many more like it until make bails out.


I would guess that there is a missing compiler variable in the ebuild.  cd'ing 
to /var/tmp/portage/yaboot-1.3.10-r2/work/yaboot-1.3.10 and simply "make"ing 
from there works fine.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge yaboot
2.
3.

Actual Results:

[Comment 1 Aaron 2003-04-11 16:01:44 UTC]

I have looked at the ebuild for yaboot a bit more, and I think I found the problem.

In the ebuild for yaboot-1.3.10-r2, when compared to yaboot-1.3.10-r1, there was one option changed: the line of "emake ${MAKEOPTS} || die" in 1.3.10-r1 was changed to " emake ${MAKEOPTS} CC="${CC}" || die" in 1.3.10-r2.  I changed it back (removing the CC="${CC}" part), and yaboot emerged fine.  So, unless you really meant to have the CC="${CC}" bit in there, I would propose the following patch to yaboot-1.3.10-r2.ebuild:

29c29
<       emake ${MAKEOPTS} || die
---
>       emake ${MAKEOPTS} CC="${CC}" || die

[Comment 2 Luca Barbato 2003-04-11 19:44:03 UTC]

there is something else wrong, it is working fine here.

do you use any particulare gcc front-end?
like distcc or gcc-color?

[Comment 3 Aaron 2003-04-11 20:52:06 UTC]

No, I've not changed anything about the compile environment at all.  In fact, that may be the problem, as $CC isn't defined on my system (which seems to be the core of the problem here).  Though, since I haven't changed anything about the environment regarding compiling, I'm not clear where I should have.

thanks.

[Comment 4 Luca Barbato 2003-04-11 21:44:24 UTC]

please try adding before the epatch line

[-n ${CC}]||CC="gcc"

[Comment 5 Aaron 2003-04-12 09:34:31 UTC]

The make complained with:
/usr/sbin/ebuild.sh: line 27: [-n: command not found

but then went on to compile and install as expected.

[Comment 6 Luca Barbato 2003-04-12 22:28:25 UTC]

sorry 

[ -n "${CC}" ] || CC="gcc"

[Comment 7 Aaron 2003-04-13 08:04:38 UTC]

that worked.  yaboot made and installed without errors.  Thanks.

[Comment 8 Luca Barbato 2003-04-13 11:19:05 UTC]

ok, closing it then.

Thanks for you help
