Bug 21144 – Installing guile-1.5.4 fails during emerge.

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

[Description Stuart W. Finlayson 2003-05-17 01:34:49 UTC]

When I run emerge --update world it tries to update to guile-1.5.4.
I get the following error:

configure: configuring in libltdl
configure: running /bin/sh './configure'  --prefix=/usr --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --datadir=/usr/share --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var/lib --with-threads --with-modules CC=gcc 'CFLAGS=-O2 -mcpu=i686 -pipe' host_alias=i686-pc-linux-gnu --enable-ltdl-convenience --cache-file=/dev/null --srcdir=.
configure: warning: CC=gcc: invalid host type
configure: warning: CFLAGS=-O2 -mcpu=i686 -pipe: invalid host type
configure: error: can only configure for one host and one target at a time
configure: error: /bin/sh './configure' failed for libltdl
sed: can't read confdefs.h: No such file or directory

!!! ERROR: dev-util/guile-1.5.4 failed.
!!! Function econf, Line 273, Exitcode 1
!!! econf failed

However, if I cd to /var/tmp/portage/guile-1.5.4/work/guile-1.5.4 and
do `unset CC` and `unset CFLAGS`, then ./configure it works fine.

Here's my `emerge info`:

Same problem here with "-march=athlon-tbird -O3 -pipe" or "-mcpu=athlon -O3 -pipe" 

[Comment 2 Tobias Sager 2003-05-17 05:17:49 UTC]

Confirm here.

This is the problem:

Should be fixed in newer version.

guile-1.6.4.ebuild is already in portage tree

can you try it ?

1.6.1 merges fine.

[Comment 6 Alastair Tse (RETIRED) 2003-05-17 14:23:01 UTC]

well, actually i didn't intend for it to get unmasked. but its masked again now. 1.6.x is the one that should be available for ~x86.
