When cross-compiling sys-apps/file-5.03, in the "python" subdirectory, the build systems attempts to use the build-compiler and the cross-CFLAGS together, which obviously does not work. My suggestion is to apply some patch to python/Makefile.in if cross-compiling, so that it is sensetive to some variable like buildCFLAGS / or hostCFLAGS, whatever is appropriate. =================================================== make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/arm-softfloat-linux-gnueabi/portage/sys-apps/file-5.03/work/file-5.03' running build running build_ext building 'magic' extension creating build creating build/temp.linux-i686-2.5 i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -pthread -fno-strict-aliasing -Os -pipe -march=armv5te -mtune=iwmmxt -fomit-frame-pointer -I/usr/arm-softfloat-linux-gnueabi/usr/include/ -I/usr/arm-softfloat-linux-gnueabi/include/ -D_GNU_SOURCE -fPIC -I./ -I../ -I../src -I/usr/include/ -I/usr/include/python2.5 -c -I./ -I../ -I../src -I/usr/include/ -I/usr/include/python2.5 -c py_magic.c -o build/temp.linux-i686-2.5/py_magic.o py_magic.c:1: error: bad value (armv5te) for -march= switch py_magic.c:1: error: bad value (iwmmxt) for -mtune= switch error: command 'i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc' failed with exit status 1 * * ERROR: sys-apps/file-5.03 failed. * Call stack: * ebuild.sh, line 49: Called src_compile * environment, line 3126: Called distutils_src_compile * environment, line 907: Called die * The specific snippet of code: * ${python} setup.py build "$@" || die "compilation failed" * The die message: * compilation failed * * If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call stack if relevant. * A complete build log is located at '/tmp/arm-softfloat-linux-gnueabi/portage/sys-apps/file-5.03/temp/build.log'. * The ebuild environment file is located at '/tmp/arm-softfloat-linux-gnueabi/portage/sys-apps/file-5.03/temp/environment'. * Reproducible: Always
