Check out the url I provided. Basically, when I run 'emerge sudo' it fails with a compile error. I 'emerge rsync' then tried to emerge sude again, but now luck. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge rsync 2. emerge sudo 3. Actual Results: The compile crashed part of the way through the ebuild. Expected Results: The compile successfully completed. theroy root # emerge info Portage 2.0.47-r10 (default-x86-1.4, gcc-3.2, glibc-2.2.5-r6) ================================================================= System uname: 2.4.20 i586 GenuineIntel GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://gentoo.oregonstate.edu/ http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/ distributions/gentoo" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /var/qmail/control /usr/share/config /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/ kde/3/share/config" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/env.d" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="" USE="x86 oss 3dnow apm arts avi crypt cups encode gif gpm gtk imlib java jpeg kde gnome libg++ libwww mikmod mmx motif mpeg ncurses nls oggvorbis opengl pdflib png qt quicktime sdl spell svga truetype X xml2 xmms xv zlib gdbm berkdb slang readline tcpd pam ssl perl python" COMPILER="gcc3" CHOST="i586-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-march=pentium-mmx -mcpu=pentium-mmx -O3 -pipe" CXXFLAGS="-march=pentium-mmx -mcpu=pentium-mmx -O3 -pipe" ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" MAKEOPTS="-j4" AUTOCLEAN="yes" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" FEATURES="sandbox distcc ccache"
hmm, can you do this instead (for a better log): emerge sudo &> log

Comment on attachment 10280 [details] Output of emerge sudo as requested Ignore the distcc errors, one of my compile helpers was down when I ran this.
which version of linux-headers have you got?
sys-kernel/linux-headers == v2.4.19
you've got a rather old glibc, the threads stuff is from glibc. did you just recently upgrade to 1.4 profile or have you just resisted the change to glibc-2.3.1 ?
Running: emerge rsync emerge glibc emerge sudo Compiles succesfully. The box was running an old version of Gentoo when it was decommissioned last October. It was ressurected and in the process of being updated, so it was running like Gentoo 1.2 or something.
thanks for that. its interesting that sudo doesn't compile on glibc-2.2.x, but i think all the profiles should be moved to 2.3.x now.
