Description Romain Bezut 2020-05-31 16:36:43 UTC
This is extremely similar to issue #683148 but this time on talloc.
There is a (deterministic in my situation) race condition with WAF.

I traced it back to `buildtools/wafsamba/samba_autoconf.py` in function `CHECK_HEADERS`, while checking for `setproctitle`.
Adding --jobs 1 to the waf arguments provided by the ebuild file does fix the issue.
This is again very similar to what has already been applied here:
https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=3da2f8152d78ab8128d35edc8764af1541403a46

Maybe for the sake of preventing future issues of the like, we could consider automatically adding `--jobs 1` in `waf-utils.eclass` or make it respectful of `MAKEOPTS` as suggested by issue #715542.

Comment 1 Jonas Stein gentoo-dev 2020-05-31 20:52:07 UTC
Thank you for the report. We need to have all information at hand before ticket assignment. That is why I ask you to 
* attach the logs and 
* paste the emerge info 
as described on https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Attach_the_logs_to_the_bug_ticket
Please reopen this ticket (Status:UNCONFIRMED) afterwards.
Comment 2 Lars Wendler (Polynomial-C) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2020-06-01 03:33:26 UTC
A build.log file with the error you described would be quite handy especially since you seem to have this problem on amd64 hardware while bug #683148 did not affect amd64.

Generally I agree. We should get this "--jobs 1" into waf-utils.eclass to prevent more packages of suffering  from this problem.
Comment 3 Romain Bezut 2020-06-01 11:35:29 UTC
Created attachment 643022 [details]
talloc-2.3.1: build.log

No error is raised since the configure phase just hangs on the configure phase while running waf configure (while checking `setproctitle`, and this is weirdly  reproducible).

On another machine where this package is installed the configure phase just runs fine, and the use flags are identical. Both machines differ by the number of cores and therefore the number of waf threads, but I cannot point any difference that would help to explain the issue reported here.
Comment 4 Marcin Mirosław 2020-08-17 19:54:00 UTC
I have the same error. configure fails on

Checking for res_search in resolv :

or

Checking for header libintl.h 

probably this is random.

Comment 5 antonello 2021-09-06 06:10:05 UTC
The same thing happened to me.
I wanted to install samba on ~arm64.
when I got to sys-libs/talloc-2.3.1 it failed to configure.

i tried several times even setting MAKEOPTS="-j1" .

then i gave an emerge --depclean, it deleted all the packages (samba dependencies) it had compiled so far and i gave emerge samba again, and here's the surprise, the compilation came to an end.
Did it change the order in which the dependencies were compiled? I don't know, I haven't checked...

on ~amd64 architecture i had no problem.
