I tested current stable (1.6-r2), as well as 2.1 and 2.2. I am using binutils[gold], though that should not be the problem...

Reproducible: Always

There should be a /var/tmp/paludis/sys-apps-sandbox-1.6-r2/work/sys-apps-sandbox-1.6-r2/config.log. Attach it please.

Does revdep-rebuild fix it?

> Does revdep-rebuild fix it?

No, it doesn't. But building binutils-2.20 without gold built sandbox quite fine...
No I will make an update to glibc-2.10.1 without gold, and switch back to gold. I will look if sandbox still fails...

Comment 7 Franz Trischberger 2009-10-30 10:03:09 UTC

Damn, again failure, so this is another binutils[gold]-Blocker...

that patch is overly verbose ... you can use NF to count from the end

fixed in git now:
