When updating my box emerge fails on xmms-infopipe-1.3 with the following message: Calculating world dependencies ...done! >>> emerge (1 of 16) media-plugins/xmms-infopipe-1.3 to / keeptemp mv: cannot stat `/var/tmp/portage/xmms-infopipe-1.3/temp/environment': No such file or directory keepwork >>> md5 src_uri ;-) xmms-infopipe-1.3.tar.gz >>> Checking xmms-infopipe-1.3.tar.gz's mtime... >>> WORKDIR is up-to-date, keeping... /usr/sbin/ebuild.sh: line 1427: 8971 Segmentation fault ./configure --prefix=/usr --host=${CHOST} --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --datadir=/usr/share --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var/lib ${EXTRA_ECONF} "$@" !!!

Function econf, Line 365, Exitcode 139 !!! econf failed Expected Results: The emerge script should have configured the package using the econf command provided in the ebuild. I have checked the forums and I've found that I'm not the only person with a problem with this same ebuild. From the forums and speaking with people in the #gentoo irc channel, I think it has something to do with sandbox. I would have chosen Major as the severity level, but since I didn't know how true the sandbox issue was, I didn't.
I am having this problem too.

is there any filesystem mounted read only ? do you have enough free diskspace ? rm -rf /var/tmp/portage/*
I have space on my HDD, I checked that before submitting the bug, sorry should have stated that.
did you do /var/tmp/portage/*?
I actually went into the /var/tmp/portage directory and deleted everything, I know there's nothing in there.. I've checked my space and I have ample space. There is nothing in portage as of now and I still get the same error.
and can you emerge other things?
I have free diskspace, no filesystems mounted readonly, cleared out /var/tmp/portage, can emerge other ebuilds fine, and I can confirm that this error is still occurring.
Not sure if this helps, but I have exactly the same problem. Plenty of disc space, permissions fine, etc, but it still segfaults. James
Ditto for me ... also, see http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?p=1025948#1025948 thread for other folks experiencing the same exact problem.

xmms-infopipe will not emerge using the workaround mentioned above.
hah... the "not" in the above statement should have read "now" big difference =)
Here are reports of a similar bug when emerging openoffice: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?p=1032347 Could these two be related?
The cause of these bugs has been found to be the same. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 46945 ***
