[Comment 1 Robin Johnson 2003-09-24 18:33:52 UTC]

I can't reproduce this,
my FEATURES is "autoaddcvs buildpkg ccache digest cvs sandbox".
(you didn't specify yours).

[Comment 2 chris Ellsworth 2003-09-25 14:14:06 UTC]

I checked again it does not show up when i do a emerge info but cating the
make.globals it is 
FEATURES="sandbox ccache"

[Comment 3 Robin Johnson 2003-09-25 16:46:36 UTC]

could you please specify what FEATURES is set to in make.conf as well?

also, please try upgrading portage then try cracklib again.

[Comment 4 chris Ellsworth 2003-09-26 11:34:05 UTC]

The make.conf does not list anything for FEATURES,
To update portage i need 2 first update the cracklib 
These are the packages that I would merge, in order.

Your copy runs:
if "sort" dies from lack of space, see "util/mkdict"
util/mkdict /usr/dict/words | util/packer "/usr/local/lib/pw_dict"

Mine runs:
if "sort" dies from lack of space, see "util/mkdict"
util/mkdict /usr/share/dict/words /usr/share/dict/extra.words | LD_LIBRARY_PATH=cracklib
util/packer /var/tmp/portage/cracklib-2.7-r7/image/"/usr/lib/cracklib_dict"

So it looks like your copy did NOT apply the patches in files/

I've made a minor change to the ebuild, so please sync it in a bit (you should
get 1.19 of cracklib-2.7-r7.ebuild), and try again.

[Comment 6 chris Ellsworth 2003-09-26 21:20:37 UTC]

ok did a "emerge portage" instead of  "emerge -u portage" (a mistake( which
was able to get portage updated then i was able to correctly emerge cracklib,
im going back through and now updateing the system

[Comment 7 Robin Johnson 2003-09-26 21:50:31 UTC]

ok thanks.
