Whenever I try to emerge libsdl, it gives me the same error message: !!! ERROR: media-libs/libsdl-1.2.8-r1 failed. !!! Function src_compile, Line 147, Exitcode 2 !!! emake failed !!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, NOT this status message. I was able to install the version below this without any problem, but it seems that this version is required for VLC, so any support would be helpful. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.I type in emerge libsdl or any package that has that as a dependency 2.The error message appears at the end, and the packages is not installed. 3. Expected Results: I expected it to install(?) These are some lines that I copied out when I tried to emerge it.

Looks like a duplicate of bug 89628, please check...
(In reply to comment #1) > Looks like a duplicate of bug 89628, please check... Yes, it looks so, but I don't understand why it still fails if than one has been fixed.
you chopped off the actual error message
Thankyou all! The problem was solved. I apologize, when I did a search for libsdl and libsdl-1.2.8-r1 I did not see http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=89628 in the results. The problem was solved by following the advice of Comment 1 in that bug. I just had to comment out the lines: epatch "${FILESDIR}"/${PV}-gcc2.patch #75392 epatch "${FILESDIR}"/${P}-gcc2.patch.bz2 #86481 And then it worked. Thank you all for your help, I can honestly say I did not expect this much attention, but I appreciate it. ~Lex
Reopened. Now for the third time - can we fix bug 89628 properly?
