Description Lance Lassetter 2003-09-08 19:03:10 UTC
script/bootstrap.sh fails due to packaged to patch gcc with, 'protector' version
mismatch.

the ebuild states protector version to download as 3.2.2-8 when in fact the
available version at http://www.trl.ibm.com/projects/security/ssp is 3.2.2-10.

modification of the ebuild to reflect this fixed the problem.

Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
1. take methods to install Gentoo.
2. after appropriate methods taken, run 'scripts/bootstrap.sh'
3. watch as bootstrap fails on merge of gcc as cannot download protector-3.2.2-8
FILE NOT FOUND

Actual Results:  
Bootstrap fails, install fails.

Expected Results:  
Bootstrap to succeed, moving onto stage2 of install.

No Gentoo mirrors were set in /etc/make.conf was the reason for this.  The file was missing or no longer exists on the site where it's hosted there was a version mismatch.
Comment 2 Matthew Rickard 2003-10-04 09:05:07 UTC
Yep, looks like you found the problem.  You'll need mirrors set up.


Closing this now.
