Bug 245776 – emerge eix fails when the configuration cannot find a bunch of headers.

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED INVALID

[Description Halim Can ALBASAN 2008-11-06 02:27:54 UTC]

seems like a duplicate of bug 111912, but i opened a new report anyway, since the files emerge cannot find are different. i thought it's better for you to figure out if it is a duplicate or not...

i entered the keyword amd64 for this package in package.keywords. below are the information.

# eix eix

by the way, the situation is not the same for other packages.

Created attachment 170921 [details]
This file contains any messages produced by compilers while running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake. (for eix-0.14.2)

Here it is. (attached)

[Comment 4 Halim Can ALBASAN 2008-11-06 16:48:01 UTC]

seems like i have a filesystem issue. it turns out i keep losing files... >(.

i ran fsck and it found soooo many errors in the filesystem and fixed it all. but now i am not able to use the system including X.. i guess if emerge -E system/world kind of thing does not work, i will have to reinstall gentoo ...

crap.. my first suspect on this isuue is amd64 system..

anyway, i am changing this to resolution:invalid..
