This tool is needed to create the aspell dictionaries. It is broken on amd64 leaving aspell useless. It's possible this is gcc3.4 related rather than amd64 as the x86 version that works for me was compiled with gcc3.3... on x86: '/usr/bin/word-list-compress d < en_US-only.cwl' (part of the aspell-en install process) produces a list of all words in the en_US dictionary but not in UK, etc. On amd64, it looks like this: $ /usr/bin/word-list-compress d < en_US-only.cwl Americanization Americanization's Americanizations Americanize Americanized Americanizes Americanizing Christianize Christianized Christianizes Christianizing Europeanization Europeanization's Europeanizations Europeanized Hellenization Hellenization's Hellenize Jes Romania Romania's Sanskritize Sanskritize's Technicolor Technicolor's Technicolors abridgment abridgment's abridgments acclimatization's acclimatizer acclimatizers acknowledgment acknowledgment's acknowledgments actualization actualization's actualizations actualize actualized actualizes actualizing adapter adapter's adapters afterward ager aggrandize aggrandized aggrandizement aggrandizement's aggrandizements aggrandizes aggrandizing aging agonize agonized agonizedlies agonizedly agonizer agonizers agonizes agonizing agonizingly airfoil airfoil's airfoils airpl airpl airpl airpl airpl airpl airpl airpl airpl a a a a a a a a (repeats 'a' for many lines then just has empty lines until I broke out of it) Portage 2.0.50-r8 (gcc34-amd64-2004.1, gcc-3.4.0, glibc-2.3.3_pre20040529-r0, 2.6.5-gentoo-r1) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.5-gentoo-r1 x86_64 4 Gentoo Base System version 1.4.16 distcc 2.13 x86_64-pc-linux-gnu (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632) [disabled] ccache version 2.3 [enabled] Autoconf: sys-devel/autoconf-2.59-r3 Automake: sys-devel/automake-1.8.3 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-O2 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" COMPILER="gcc3" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.2/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/mozilla/defaults/pref /usr/share/config /usr/share/texmf/dvipdfm/config/ /usr/share/texmf/dvips/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/platex/config/ /usr/share/texmf/xdvi/ /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" DISTDIR="/mnt/raid0/gentoo/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs ccache sandbox userpriv usersandbox" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://gentoo.oregonstate.edu http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/mnt/raid0/gentoo/packages-amd64" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/mnt/raid0/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="" SYNC="rsync://rsync17.us.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="3ds S3TC X X509 Xaw3d aac aalib accessibility acl acpi activefilter afs aim alsa altivec amd amd64 apache2 apm ardour-ksi arts artswrappersuid atlas audiofile autofs avantgo avi berkdb bidi bindist caps cdr chroot clamav clanJavaScript clanVoice clearpasswd clisp cmucl crypt cscope cups curl dbcp dedicated dga directfb divx4linux dnd doc dv dvd dvdr eim emacs emacs-w3 encode esd ethereal evms2 evo expat ext-png ext-zlib f77 faac faad fam fax fbcon fbdev ffmpeg flac flash fltk fluidsynth foomaticdb freetype fs fullrpc gb gcj gcl gd gd-external gdbm ggi gif gimp gimpprint glade glut gmp gmtfull gmthigh gmtsuppl gmttria gnome gnomedb gnuplot gphoto2 gpm gps gstreamer gtk gtk2 gtkhtml guile hbci icq idl image imagemagick imap imlib imlib2 innodb ipalias ipv6 jabber jack jack-caps java javacomm javamail javascript jbig jikes joystick jp2 jpeg js junit justify kde ladcca lcd lcms libdsk libg libg++ libgda libwww lids lmtp log4j ltsp lua lucid lzw lzw-tiff maildir make-busybox-symlinks makecheck mcal md5sum menu mikmod milter mixer mng mono motif mozcalendar mozctl mozilla mozinterfaceinfo mozp3p mozsvg mozxmlterm mpeg mpeg4 mpi mplayer msn mule multilib music mysql nas native ncurses neXt nls nogcj nptl nvidia nviz oav objc oci8 odbc offensive ofx oggvorbis oldworld openal opengl oscar oss pam parse-clocks passfile pcap pcmcia pcre pda pdflib perl php pic pie plotutils png pnp portaudio ppds prelude propolice psyco python qhull qt quicktime readline regexp rplay ruby samba sasl sdk sdl skey slang slp sndfile socks5 sox speex spell sqlite src ssl svg tcltk tcpd tetex theora tiff timidity transcode transparent-proxy truetype trusted type1 ucs2 usb v4l v4l2 vda vhosts videos vim-with-x virus-scan wmf wsconvert wxwin wxwindows xchattext xemacs xface xforms xfs xine xinerama xml xml2 xmms xosd xprint xv xvid yahoo zeo zlib"
BTW: I simply copied the dicts to amd64 after creating them on x86 and it worked fine... so it's just something with the decompression code on amd64
It's not amd64 specific... it's heppening with my x86 build too...

does this happen with 0.50.5-r2 ?
last I checked, yes... I'll re-emerge now to verify and let you know asap.
works fine now.
