Bug 32119 – emerge planet-ccrma-sources fails - Function src_unpack

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Mark Knecht 2003-10-27 12:43:39 UTC]

I attempted to emerge the PlanetCCRMA 2.4.21 kernel using the new (to me)
ebuild. It failed with the following messages:

./usr/src/linux-2.4.21-1.ll.acpi/COPYING
./usr/src/linux-2.4.21-1.ll.acpi/REPORTING-BUGS
./usr/src/linux-2.4.21-1.ll.acpi/CREDITS
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors

!!! ERROR: sys-kernel/planet-ccrma-sources-2.4.21 failed.
!!! Function src_unpack, Line 51, Exitcode 2
!!! (no error message)

Gentoo2 root #

I attempted to scroll back but cannot see any errors. It must have happened
quite a bit earlier. I retried the emerge but couln't spot what was going wrong. 



Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge planet-ccrma-sources

Actual Results:  
./usr/src/linux-2.4.21-1.ll.acpi/REPORTING-BUGS
./usr/src/linux-2.4.21-1.ll.acpi/CREDITS
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors

!!! ERROR: sys-kernel/planet-ccrma-sources-2.4.21 failed.
!!! Function src_unpack, Line 51, Exitcode 2
!!! (no error message)

Gentoo2 root # 

Nothign new is in /usr/src at this point.

Expected Results:  
Should just install the kernel.

FYI - Tried this on a second machine with the same results.

[Comment 2 Steve Arnold 2003-10-29 00:44:41 UTC]

Ok, I'll see if I can make it happen on my box (and maybe another one).

[Comment 3 Steve Arnold 2003-11-01 18:04:47 UTC]

I tested the r1 ebuild on my kid's box, and it works fine there too.  So
it looks like you have two machines it fails on, and I have two that it works
on.  Things that make you go hmmm...

Looking at your info, all I can think of is maybe try cranking your CFLAGS
down from -O3 to -O2 or -Os.  But you'd have to rebuild quite a bit of stuff
to test that theory...  Other than that, I really don't see much of anything.
 I'm open to suggestions.

[Comment 4 Mark Knecht 2003-11-01 18:31:56 UTC]

Humm....strange. Are either of your machines AMD based? I jsut tried -r1
again and it's still failing here.

This is failing in emerge somewhere. To go down to -O2 would be quite a drastic
step I think since it would mean rebuilding what? The whole machine? I don't
know.

Well, this is disappointing. Maybe I'd be better off adding the capabilites
patch to gentoo-sources....

Thanks,
Mark

Both machines I have are athlons (actually three, if you count my previous
board/cpu combo) - 2 tbirds and one xp chip (but all are using -Os).  Go
figure...

[Comment 6 Jesse Chappell 2003-11-04 19:45:50 UTC]

I see the same problem and same error message. 
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors

It appears that it might be dying in the kernel_universal_unpack.

[Comment 7 Steve Arnold 2003-11-07 18:41:34 UTC]

I'm not sure what to say, since I haven't been able to reproduce this on
the three Gentoo boxes I have at my disposal right now.  This one is an Athlon-xp,
and I tried on an Athlon-tbird and a K6-2 350.  Any other ideas?

[Comment 8 Steve Arnold 2003-11-23 20:14:17 UTC]

This fix worked for my qtopia-desktop-bin ebuild, so give it a try.  I switched from rpm2tgz to the rpm eclass.
