Bug 35765 – emerge fails on vim-6.2-r5 DIFFERENT step than in bug 35661

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description David Warde-Farley 2003-12-13 17:18:54 UTC]

It appears to be something to do with a pointer cast  it fails in fileio.o - see details below.  This has been a problem since -r3 or before, I believe.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge vim

Actual Results:  
fileio.c: In function `readfile':
fileio.c:1258: warning: passing arg 2 of `iconv' from incompatible pointer type
fileio.c:1821:14: macro "dup" requires 2 arguments, but only 1 given

Expected Results:  
Continued the emerge correctly...

Complete log of the emerge.

Maybe this will help.

Hmm... Looks like you have something called "libc.h" on your system.  Do you have an alternative libc installed?

[Comment 4 David Warde-Farley 2003-12-13 21:22:34 UTC]

That's Plan 9's libc interface, from package "9libs".

[Comment 5 David Warde-Farley 2003-12-13 21:30:16 UTC]

Okay, that was weird. I unmerged 9libs only to find the /usr/include/libc.h didn't go away. So I deleted it. Now vim merges fine. Thanks, sorry to trouble you guys. 

Whoever maintains 9libs should be made aware of the problem, maybe?

Aha! Just for shits and giggles I remerged 9libs and tried to merge vim. different error this time.

[Comment 7 David Warde-Farley 2003-12-13 21:55:22 UTC]

So apparently 9libs is a blocker for vim... what can be done about this?

[Comment 8 Aron Griffis (RETIRED) 2004-01-06 08:02:55 UTC]

vim now depends on !dev-libs/9libs via vim.eclass
Thanks.
