when building gtoaster 1.0beta6, it gets to Creating Makefile, then loops over and over, eventually stopping with a too many files open error.

can you paste on the bug the output of "emerge info" I don't experience the same problem.

I had the same error as you guys, but when I booted with a 2.4.x-kernel it compiled fine. Has to be something there...
okay... here's the deal. even though you are running 2.6 kernels... you aren't compiling any programs against the 2.6 headers... /usr/include/linux and /usr/include/asm are headers from a modified 2.4.19 kernel so this is most likely where the problem is. If you run a 2.4 kernel you should have no problems. The other fun way to go about this is to rebuild your system against the 2.6 headers (which may or may not work). mv /usr/include/asm /usr/include/asm-2.4 mv /usr/include/linux /usr/include/linux-2.4 ln -s /usr/src/linux-2.6.0-whatever/include/asm /usr/include/asm ln -s /usr/src/linux-2.6.0-whatever/include/asm-generic /usr/include/asm-generic ln -s /usr/src/linux-2.6.0-whatever/include/linux /usr/include/linux emerge -e world emerge gtoaster You might just want to run the 2.4 kernel. :)
no problems here with that ebuild. and I'm using kernel-2.6.0-test11, too. So there is no relation to the kernel-version.
I'm on the 2.6test11 kernel and it won't build, Why is it just this software? IS there any fix yet?
I get the same error on a system running gentoo-sources-2.4.20-r9. I don't think this is kernel related.
Same error here, running 2.6.0
Problem still occurs. Ebaild will go into loop and will never stop (until error). You can see a thread of people having this same problem at http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=67048
opeing bug. problem is still happing

I had the same problem, so I fixed it ... up your sync and try again. -Brad
