The flag is lfd, not fld, and that part of the output is not the actual error but yes, it fails for me too.

Created attachment 425746 [details, diff]
workaround to compile ebuild.

the error reported in teh ebuild log is:

src/lfd/lockdaemon.c: In function ‘check_group_uucp’:
src/lfd/lockdaemon.c:473:14: error: ‘NGROUPS_MAX’ undeclared (first use in this function)
  gid_t list[ NGROUPS_MAX ];

in the attachment, a workaround patch, sufficient to compile the ebuild.

Fixed in 2.2_pre2-r1. The correct fix was to include limits.h. I'll close this when stable.

[Comment 8 Marco Clocchiatti 2016-02-18 02:52:01 UTC]

ok.
but now we have a 2.2_pre2 version with not tilde KEYWORDS which does not compile and a 2.2_pre2-r1 with tilde KEYWORDS which does.

Right, that's how things work. You can't just mark things stable straight away except in exceptional circumstances like security. I must admit that I find this policy odd at times but I don't make the rules.
