emerge --info

On my ~amd64 machine I see the following error when trying to merge app-text/texlive-core-2019-r7. This does not happen with version 2019-r4, but that version fails with a compile error. I tried to poke a bit at the error but did not get any insight into what exactly is happening here.


checking whether float word ordering is bigendian... unknown
configure: error: 

Unknown float word ordering. You need to manually preset
ax_cv_c_float_words_bigendian=no (or yes) according to your system.

cairo does not support lto, it is a known problem.
