Description Michael Zanetta 2006-10-01 15:13:24 UTC
Hello,

First off, i don't really know tho who assign this bug so i'll let you do.

I'm migrating my project (www.pentoo.ch) to use catalyst specs file.
I recently redid my stage1-2-3 to upgrade to gcc-4.1.1 and glibc-2.4.

Now when catalyst tries to emerge any cvs-src packages it ends with the following error :

>>> Emerging (1 of 243) dev-db/edb-9999 to /
 * This is a LIVE CVS ebuild.
 * That means there are NO promises it will work.
 * If it fails to build, FIX THE CODE YOURSELF
 * before reporting any issues.
 * Fetching CVS module e17/libs/edb into /usr/portage/distfiles/cvs-src ...
/bin/pwd: couldn't find directory entry in `../../..' with matching i-node
 * Running  cvs -q -f -z4 -d ":pserver:anonymous:@anoncvs.enlightenment.org:/var/cvs/e" login
cvs [login aborted]: cannot get working directory: No such file or directory

!!! ERROR: dev-db/edb-9999 failed.
Call stack:

  ebuild.sh, line 708:   Called src_unpack
  ebuild.sh, line 1255:   Called cvs_src_unpack

!!! cvs login command failed
!!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call stack if relevant.


!!! catalyst: Error in attempt to build packages
(full info attached below in catalyst.txt)

I looked around and i found out that i'm not alone (http://www.mail-archive.com/gentoo-catalyst@lists.gentoo.org/msg00442.html) and there was an open issue there : http://www.mail-archive.com/bug-coreutils@gnu.org/msg06307.html

Following the above link, i did patch the code myself but it just removed the /bin/pwd error, still dying on the cvs fetching. I also tried to unmask other version of coreutils but it still breaks.

The interesting thing is that when i chroot manually but bind-mount my /usr/portage instead of the /var/tmp/catalyst/snapshot_cache/2006.2/portage to the catalyst stage1 dir it does works.

My english is not very good as you may have notice but feel free to ask me to re-explain again if it's not clear. I'll try to do my best

Thanks in advance

What if you turn off snapcache in catalyst and try it again?

Hey, it does actually work! Thanks for the tip!
There's probably a bug in coreutils but i can now get along with it.
If i can give you any help on it, let me know.

PS. BTW you did a really nice job on catalyst 2.0. Keep up the good work.
