Description Bryan Østergaard (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-02-14 00:12:55 UTC
Both binutils and aboot break on PAGE_SIZE being undeclared. I've cheated and just copied the error from forums.g.o but I can reproduce it if needed and give you a full(er) log.

gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I.././bfd -I. -DTRAD_CORE -I. -I.././bfd -I.././bfd/../include -I.././bfd/../intl -I../intl -W -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -Werror -g -O2 -c trad-core.c -o trad-core.o
trad-core.c: In function `trad_unix_core_file_p':
trad-core.c:116: error: `PAGE_SIZE' undeclared (first use in this function)
trad-core.c:116: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
trad-core.c:116: error: for each function it appears in.)
make[4]: *** [trad-core.lo] Error 1

split the issues ... aboot needs to be fixed and alpha team will handle that, but i'll take care of binutils
Comment 2 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2007-07-15 07:07:38 UTC
i dont think there's a chance of a quick fix here ... aboot would need to be overhauled majorly to work with linux-headers

much easier to have aboot pull in the same tarball as the linux-headers package and compile against the unsanitized headers

ive added aboot-1.0_pre20040408-r1.ebuild which does just that
