Bug 95984 – Attempt to build openssh-4.1_p1results in "Compilter cannot create executables"

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

[Description Scott 2005-06-13 09:04:50 UTC]

Other ebuilds seem to build ok. Attempts to upgrade openssh result in error in
subject. Suspect that recent gcc update has broken the system somehow, or
openssh has some path hardcoded...

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge -u openssh
2. ...
3. profit

Actual Results:  
Error log:

[...]
checking compiler and flags for sanity... no
configure: error: *** compiler cannot create working executables, check
config.log ***

!!! Please attach the config.log to your bug report:
!!! /var/tmp/portage/openssh-4.1_p1/work/openssh-4.1p1/config.log

!!! ERROR: net-misc/openssh-4.1_p1 failed.
!!! Function econf, Line 485, Exitcode 0
!!! econf failed
!!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, NOT this status message.



Expected Results:  
Compiled the software.
