When trying to build wxGTK, I get this error: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/4.2.2/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: /usr/X11R6/lib64/libpng.a(libpng12_la-png.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against `a local symbol' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC /usr/X11R6/lib64/libpng.a: could not read symbols: Bad value collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make: *** [lib/libwx_gtk2_core-2.6.so.0.4.0] Error 1 * * ERROR: x11-libs/wxGTK-2.6.4.0-r3 failed. * Call stack: * ebuild.sh, line 46: Called src_compile * environment, line 2729: Called build_wx 'src_compile' * environment, line 445: Called die * The specific snippet of code: * emake || diefunc "$FUNCNAME" "$LINENO" "$?"

we're building against system libpng. ccing base-system. what version of libpng do you have installed? PS -funit-at-a-time is default for >=O1, you don't need to specify it in your CFLAGS.
Latest libpng, libpng-1.2.24. Also, thanks for the tip on -funit-at-a-time. :)
i dont see a bug here in libpng ... wxGTK attempted to link a static archive into a shared object ... that's clearly wrong you only posted a very short snippet, so i have no idea the surrounding context i imagine /usr/X11R6 is simply a symlink to "." which means /usr/X11R6/lib64/ is really /usr/lib64/ make sure you have libpng.so in /usr/lib64/
Ah, that uncovered the real issue - /usr/lib64/libpng.so is a symlink to /usr/lib64/libpng12.so, which is a symlink to libpng12.so.0.24.0, which doesn't exist. ravi@3vil ~ $ ls /usr/lib64/libpng* /usr/lib64/libpng12.a /usr/lib64/libpng.a /usr/lib64/libpng12.la /usr/lib64/libpng.la /usr/lib64/libpng12.so /usr/lib64/libpng.so /usr/lib64/libpng12.so.0 /usr/lib64/libpng.so.3 /usr/lib64/libpng12.so.0.23.0 /usr/lib64/libpng.so.3.23.0 ravi@3vil ~ $ ls -l /usr/lib64/libpng.so lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 2007-12-22 15:53 /usr/lib64/libpng.so -> libpng12.so ravi@3vil ~ $ ls -l /usr/lib64/libpng12.so lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 2007-12-22 15:53 /usr/lib64/libpng12.so -> libpng12.so.0.24.0 ravi@3vil ~ $ Guess it's definitely a libpng bug, then.
Actually, no, this is surreal. Could be a portage bug or something. I just noticed that libpng was actually at version 1.2.23, but I knew I had installed 1.2.24 yesterday. So, I tried merging it again, and here's what I got. [build output snipped] >>> Completed installing libpng-1.2.24 into /var/tmp/portage/media-libs/libpng-1.2.24/image/ ecompressdir: bzip2 -9 usr/share/man removing executable bit: usr/lib64/libpng12.la * checking 27 files for package collisions >>> Merging media-libs/libpng-1.2.24 to / --- /usr/ --- /usr/bin/ >>> /usr/bin/libpng12-config [file list snipped] >>> /usr/include/libpng12/png.h >>> /usr/lib64/libpng.so -> libpng12.so >>> /usr/lib64/libpng.so.3 -> libpng.so.3.24.0 >>> Regenerating /etc/ld.so.cache... >>> media-libs/libpng-1.2.24 merged. media-libs/libpng selected: 1.2.24 protected: 1.2.23 omitted: none >>> 'Selected' packages are slated for removal. >>> 'Protected' and 'omitted' packages will not be removed. >>> Unmerging media-libs/libpng-1.2.24... No package files given... Grabbing a set. --- replaced obj /usr/share/man/man5/png.5.bz2 --- replaced dir /usr/share/man/man5 [rest of output snipped] I'm kind of at a loss here. Anybody know why this would happen?
Just ran into the same issue (portage immediately unmerging the package it just installed, instead of the old version) trying to install firefox 3 beta, so this is definitely a portage issue.
And a recent one, too - downgrading to portage-2.1.3.19 fixes the problem. (Sorry about spamming this bug like this; just doing what I can to help get the issue fixed.)

It seems like /var/cache/edb/counter has an incorrect value that it too low. I think the difference that you've observed between 2.1.3.19 and 2.1.4_rc11 is just a difference in the logic that generates new counters with makes the problem less noticeable. If you reinstall portage-2.1.4_rc11 and remove /var/cache/edb/counter then it should automatically regenerate a suitable counter. To prevent this problem from happening, I think we should make /var/cache/edb/counter into a write-only file. We don't really need a global counter file anyway because we have a caching mechanism that allows us to quickly scan the counters of all installed packages.
This has been released in 2.1.4_rc12.
