Bug 554076 – www-client/chromium-43.0.2357.130 fails to compile with error: no matching function for call to 'base::FundamentalValue::FundamentalValue(const base::DictionaryValue&)'

• Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

[Description Vincent de Phily 2015-07-06 11:35:42 UTC]

Getting repeated failures trying to build latest stable chromium. Amd64 hardened, gcc 4.8.4. Depending on timing, I get one or more of these errors:

Can anyone else reproduce? I've tried but it compiled fine.

[Comment 5 Arvind Jayaprakash 2015-07-10 12:50:33 UTC]

I have been able to reproduce this as well. In fact, I have two machines that run gentoo and the exact same build works on one but doesn't work on another

[Comment 8 Vincent de Phily 2015-07-10 15:23:17 UTC]

I've tried a few things :
* Reemerge all of chromium's direct dependencies (as seen from equery g)
* use vanilla gcc instead of gcc hardened
* disable cups and proprietary-codecs use flags
* unmask version 44.0.2403.61

But I keep getting the same error. It takes over an hour to reach the failure spot, so testing is slow.

[Comment 9 Vincent de Phily 2015-08-31 16:13:40 UTC]

After nearly a month of not being able to compile chromium (and being stuck with version 43 that wasn't in the three anymore), version 45.0.2454.46 compiled fine today. Chances are that the gcc 4.8.4 -> 4.8.5 update that came just before it did the trick.

Arvind, is it the same story on your side ?

[Comment 10 Arvind Jayaprakash 2015-09-27 02:04:04 UTC]

I continue to face the same issues. The machine on which 43.0.2357.130 did not compile encounters an error with 45.0.2454.85 as well. Likewise the machine on which 43.0.2357.130 compiled had not issues with 45.0.2454.85.

The gcc version is 4.8.4 on both machines.

[Comment 11 Vincent de Phily 2015-09-27 09:25:34 UTC]

Arvind, does upgrading to 4.8.5 fiz the issue ? If so, maybe the chromium ebuild should require that gcc version.

[Comment 12 Arvind Jayaprakash 2015-10-10 05:15:57 UTC]

Vincent, I do have two machines running gentoo both of which are on gcc 4.8.4. chromium builds successfuly one of those but doesn't on the other. I am comparing the emerge --info output between the two machines and also what you provided to see what the issue is.

It appears that the build process is generating some sources and it is this code that has a compilation error. I now need to guess which package is altering the nature of the source generated that is causing this error.

[Comment 13 Arvind Jayaprakash 2015-10-22 03:45:58 UTC]

Upgrading gcc to 4.8.5 did solve the problem for me as well.

However, I still do not believe that to be the root cause based on the fact that I did manage to get the same versions build on another machine with 4.8.4
