• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description M Grundman 2004-02-17 02:45:08 UTC]

After having emerged autoconf-2.58-r1 clamav does not compile any more. And I compiled it correctly just before.

checking for snprintf... yes
checking whether setpgrp takes no argument... configure: error: cannot check setpgrp when cross compiling

!!! ERROR: net-mail/clamav-0.67 failed.
!!! Function econf, Line 365, Exitcode 1
!!! econf failed

There may be a connection of this bug with hardened-gcc and/or automake. Reemerge
of hardened-gcc changed the comportement of "emerge clamav" and resolved the problem. I'm unable to identify the problem exactly.

[Comment 2 M Grundman 2004-02-17 07:14:45 UTC]

A similar problem with compilation of qt disappeared in the same way.

[Comment 3 STefan 2004-02-17 17:50:46 UTC]

Could it be, because emerging gcc again adds the header for autoconf linux/autoconf.h???

I just tried to emerge xfree and it wouldn't compile since linux/autoconf.h is missing, I guess it was removed when I upgraded to autoconf-2.58-r1 today.

[Comment 4 STefan 2004-02-17 17:59:07 UTC]

I just checked with locate, the file linux/autoconf.h was there yesterday so it must have been deleted through emerge today. I wonder why???

[Comment 5 STefan 2004-02-18 00:48:08 UTC]

I just managed to compile my xfree after copying the autoconf.h from kernel src directory to /usr/include/linux/ . 


I'm not sure though if the upgrade to autoconf broke it, emerging autoconf now doesn't delete the file, it may be a different package which caused this, it could be:

coreutils
or binutils also, since those are the two I emerge at the same day. I definitely got deleted thoug, since I ran updatedb on the 16th locate still shows autoconf.h is there and on the 17 th after upgrading to the latest autoconf, binutils , coreutils the autoconf.h is gone.

[Comment 6 SpanKY 2004-02-18 23:08:49 UTC]

does 2.59-r3 fix this ?

[Comment 7 solar (RETIRED) 2004-06-20 20:42:52 UTC]

hardened-gcc has been obsoleted and reporter did not give feedback. Closing bug.
