upgrade your coreutils to the stable version (In reply to comment #1) > upgrade your coreutils to the stable version > if i upgrade it, i got "Bad address" in touch util... I don't think this is related to coreutils: gwinn revdep-rebuild # equery belongs useradd [ Searching for file(s) useradd in *... ] sys-apps/shadow-4.1.4.2-r4 (/etc/default/useradd) sys-apps/shadow-4.1.4.2-r4 (/usr/sbin/useradd) sys-apps/shadow-4.1.4.2-r4 (/etc/pam.d/useradd) Try to emerge shadow instead, then revdep-rebuild.

In case you need 2.6.18 features there is still 2.6.18.028.070.4 and you better use it due to security and other different issues. Yea, it'll take time to find correct .config to build it (better start with upstream's .config, reference on which is provided in elog message) but the kernel you use is too old and completely unmaintained. As it stands now this bug is currently invalid. > You need to upgrade your kernel. In case you need 2.6.18 features there is

I can't. My VDS is OpenVZ-based.

I already told them about it. They believe that support is provided only for their assembly, but not for the updated system.
Such attitude is a good reason to change hosting providers :) Last time I've needed that it was not hard to find those who support Gentoo out of box. ;) But all of this is completely off-topic here. |
