Expected Results:  
to build all of the proper components



I have tried this with and without Cflags set.

here are parts of my /etc/make.conf with "USE" flags

USE="cdparanoia debug tcltk readline png tiff jpeg ncurses stroke rplay java
gtk2 perl -arts -gnome -kde -crypt aalib svga gtk2 fbcon ssl tcpd apache mysql
truetype"


Also using current stable branches of gcc and glibc

Kernel: 2.6.5

I should also note that this same thing happens with any mozilla application
that I try to build: mozilla nvu.  Each application is missing some file or
directory during the building phase

[Comment 1 Aaron Peterson 2004-08-10 15:00:15 UTC]

is it fixed by the new version? 0.9.3? if so, please close

[Comment 2 Catherine 2004-08-11 14:53:45 UTC]

There is absolutely no change...I just tried emerging yesterday when I noticed a new version of firefox.  

I get the same exact error.  All of my "system" packages are stable version.

[Comment 3 Catherine 2004-09-24 18:38:40 UTC]

An update to this bug situation. I have built two brand new systems and was able to install the latest and greatest mozilla-firefox, mozilla-thunderbird and Nvu (things I was not able to install previously) All on identical hardware and USE flags

So there is something definitely conflicting with the install for firefox.  On one of the newly built systems, I installed a few extra applications and libs and on that system...firefox wont install.  On the other system.  I have basic things installed...xorg requirements, gtk gnome libraries and fvwm as my wm.

I am now going to try to uninstall mplayer and the mplayerplug-in....those are the only two things that I can think of that are different.  

[Comment 4 Aron Griffis (RETIRED) 2004-11-13 18:19:15 UTC]

Catherine, does this problem still occur with mozilla-firefox-1.0-r1?

If so, please try this (as root)

rm -rf /var/tmp/portage/mozilla-firefox*
MAKEOPTS=-j1 emerge mozilla-firefox

If that works, I'd really like to know about it.  I'm tracking a couple problems that look like this.

[Comment 5 Aron Griffis (RETIRED) 2004-11-14 17:50:00 UTC]

The other problems I mentioned were an error on my part in mozconfig.eclass, which is now fixed.

I suspect this bug is stale.  Please re-open if you can repro with mozilla-firefox-1.0-r2

[Comment 6 Catherine 2004-11-16 14:36:55 UTC]

Oh, I thought I had closed this!  I have not ever been able to reproduce this after I built my new system.  And so far have been able to build up to the latest stable ebuild for mozilla-firefox. 

If anything changes, I will be sure to notify.

Thanks!
