What is the ouput of `emerge -pv gnustep-base`? Actually, disregard that: You have "gcc-libffi" in your USE flags. Remove it -- this is not a bug. You're "libffi" is from the seperate package "dev-libs/libffi". If you want to use gcc-libffi, you need to emerge gcc with the gcj USE flag or >=gcc-3.4.3-r1 with the objc USE flag (or gcj), but this ebuild is still in testing, so I wouldn't. You can just continue to not use the gcc-libffi use flag and everything should work fine. Sorry, but I tried with this use flag after a first error. I tried it thinking that i should solve my problem. I retried without it and still have the error. the emerge gnustep-base -pv gives : endymion root # emerge gnustep-base -pv These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating dependencies ...done! [ebuild N ] gnustep-base/gnustep-base-1.10.2_pre20041203 -debug +doc -gcc-libffi -profile 0 kB of course all the dep are built (and libffi was a dep). should i reopen the bug ? If dev-libs/libffi was installed, at worst, you may have to 'env-update', 'source /etc/profile' and try to emerge again. Please let me know if that works. ... and an `ldconfig` couldn't hurt, but shouldn't necessarily be needed. already did it but retried with same result. Hrm. Well, there are a couple more things we can try. First, clean out temp files: 'rm -Rf /var/tmp/portage/*', then try again (Making sure the gcc-libffi is off). Second, if dev-libs/libffi is installed, what is the output of: `ls /usr/include/libffi` and `ls /usr/lib/libffi` Third, what does /etc/ld.so.conf looks like? Fourth, when you did the 'env-update' and 'source /etc/profile', did you try to do the emerge in the same terminal as the one you executed those commands, or no? 1st I checked in the configure.log and found configure:13864: checking "FFI library usage" configure:13891: gcc -o conftest -mcpu=athlon-xp -Os -pipe -fgnu-runtime -I/usr/GNUstep/System/Library/Headers -Wl,-O1 -L/usr/GNUstep/System/Library/Libraries/gnu-gnu -gnu -L/usr/GNUstep/System/Library/Libraries conftest.c -lffi -ldl -lz >&5 `-mcpu=' is deprecated.

OK I tried smthing and it worked : i just ln -s the /usr/lib/libffi/libffi.so* in /usr/lib/ So I think the bug is related to gcc (ld) and not gnustep or libffi that need to create those symlinks. fixed |
