build.log for version 0.9

I'm also seeing this, on version 0.9. I didn't have any earlier versions installed, so I suspect I would see it on them, too.

Comment 9 Kent Stemen 2019-05-04 12:16:11 UTC

I think the failure is due to some kernel functionality missing.
More precisely, ell needs the following kernel config options:

        CONFIG_TIMERFD=y
        CONFIG_EVENTFD=y

        CONFIG_CRYPTO_USER_API=y
        CONFIG_CRYPTO_USER_API_HASH=y
        CONFIG_CRYPTO_MD5=y
        CONFIG_CRYPTO_SHA1=y

        CONFIG_KEY_DH_OPERATIONS=y

(see README of ell).

The failure of the test-uuid (or more precisely the lack of UUID capability in ell) is due to ell using the md5 capability of the kernel via the user crypto API (see create_alg() in ell/checksum.c called by l_checksum_new() called by the UUID functions).

I'll guess the ebuild should check for those kernel options when getting merged because library users might expect that ell has the capability of generating UUIDs (which it cannot without those kernel options).
