Description Niall Daley 2009-06-24 11:40:11 UTC 
Attempting to emerge app-misc/flasm-1.6.2 fails unless dev-util/byacc has been emerged first. The error is:

In file included from assembler.flex:17:
assembler.tab.h:323:14: warning: no newline at end of file
assembler.flex: In function 'yylex':
assembler.flex:71: error: 'yylval' undeclared (first use in this function)
assembler.flex:71: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
assembler.flex:71: error: for each function it appears in.)
make: *** [lex.yy.o] Error 1

It looks like byacc should be added to the required packages. I'm on an x86_64 machine.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge flasm - This fails
2. emerge byacc
3. emerge flasm - This succeeds 

Actual Results:  
The flasm package fails to request all required packages.

Expected Results:  
The byacc package should be required.

Comment 1 Rafał Mużyło 2009-06-24 17:35:39 UTC 
I think you've meant sys-devel/bison,
which actually already is a dep.
That means, that something was (and perhaps still is)
wrong with your system.
Attach your build.log.
Comment 2 Rafał Mużyło 2009-06-24 17:49:10 UTC 
On the other hand, it may simply be a parallel make problem
- hard to tell without build.log.
Comment 3 Niall Daley 2009-06-25 11:04:08 UTC 
I've just uninstalled byacc and flasm, then tried remerging flasm. I'll attach the build.log.
Comment 4 Niall Daley 2009-06-25 11:05:05 UTC

Build.log showing compile error
Comment 5 Rafał Mużyło 2009-06-25 14:34:36 UTC 
OK, looks like it's the second case - parallel make.
See, if it works with '-j1'.
Comment 6 Rafał Mużyło 2009-06-25 14:38:10 UTC 
Problem lies probably here:
assembler.tab.c assembler.tab.h: assembler.y
        bison --defines --debug assembler.y
with parallel make, that has a good reason to fail.
Comment 7 Niall Daley 2009-06-25 18:43:46 UTC 
OK, that did indeed work with -j1 in my make.conf. Any idea why installing byacc first fixed the problem with -j4?
Comment 8 Rafał Mużyło 2009-06-27 01:16:32 UTC 
Well, parallel make bugs are quite sensitive to timing...
IOW, I don't have a clue.
Comment 9 Paweł Hajdan, Jr. (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-02-23 10:20:15 UTC 
I applied a fix that I think should work.

  files/flasm-1.62-makefile.patch:
  Hopefully fix a parallel make issue, bug #275272 by Niall Daley
  <bugs.gentoo.org@evilitdirector.com>

If it doesn't work for you, please reopen the bug (please make sure you got the updated patch, see your /usr/portage/app-misc/flasm/ChangeLog file; it should contain the above message).
