Description Henry Wertz 2006-02-20 10:29:13 UTC
I am running coreutils-5.94 on my other systems fine, but on this PIII emerge bailed in mid-update; any ./configure script with lines like --bindir=/bin would break, with errors like in bug 122601, 122583, etc.. but I had no locale set.  Setting it to "C" didn't help.  Kicking it up to be en_US (which is what it should be) didn't help either.  cding into the /var/tmp/portage/.../work/../ directory and running ./configure without the "=" signs usually worked for the few packages I tried.  Just copying a bin for /bin/expr from one of my Athlons worked to get emerge working and downgrading to 5.93 "fixed" things up.  Compiler bug?  I'm running gcc-3.4.5 on there, regular version (not hardened).  Oh, contrary to what this emerge --info says, I was not running -j7 when this problem arose.. I was running MAKEOPTS="-j1" and 127.0.0.1 as my only distcc host, since the machine was offsite where distcc hosts are unavailable.
