Bug 263394 – www-servers/cherokee ebuild fails after compilation

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED NEEDINFO

[Description Ludovic Magerand 2009-03-22 18:23:09 UTC]

I tried to install Cherokee to test it (for the very first time), and the ebuild failed just after the compilation and before merging with the live filesystem.

Portage died with a "poor code kills airplanes" message (funny, really, but useless to solve the problem).

A more complete log is provided.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Try to emerge cherokee with all use flags apart "static" on amd64


Actual Results:  
>>> Completed installing cherokee-0.9.0 into /var/tmp/portage/www-servers/cherokee-0.9.0/image/

Please post your `emerge --info' too. Also note that only if you set FEATURES=stricter, portage will die on these minor QA issues.

I will have a little problem doing that as my laptop crashed (hardly) this morning. It's down for now.

What I could say is that it was an up to date portage (and gcc) as found in ~amd64 (an eix-sync and emerge -avuD world was run the day before I tried to merge this package).

Yes, the "stricter" feature was on, as well as a few other (sandbox, userpriv, userfetch, user*, ccache, ...).
The building were like -Os -pipe and another I don't remenber right now (a standard one).

I will be no more helpfull until my new laptop (just ordered) is here and gentoo installed on it.
The older one will be return for being repaired but it may take a long time.
