Description Sascha Wuestemann 2010-03-13 23:10:06 UTC

After upgrading my system I have got new linux headers so I rebuilt the toolchain and after that I successfully emerge(d) -eva system but emerge -eva world fails at gnome-keyring-2.28.2 because the build process assumes an error while unpacking the distfile which looks wrong to me because I can't see a reason why it should fail. I have successfully unpacked the distfile by hand, I removed /var/tmp/gnome-base recursively, I have emerge(d) --sync and each time I have the same error after emerge --resume. I have checked revdep-rebuild and lafilefixer, too, nothing changes.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge --resume to get emerge -eva world finished
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
buiiding fails

Expected Results:  
I was looking to find the error with no succes. It should build fine, I think.

Should build without error, because it has before.

Does adding '--debug' gives any hints ?

That's most likely related to the current tar issues. Downgrading tar to 1.22 should fix it.

Comment 7 Sascha Wuestemann 2010-03-14 13:49:35 UTC

Patrick Lauer was right, thank you. I downgraded tar and now unpacking was error free. My emerge --resume continues.

I can confirm that this case was a tar issue.
