Bug 610336 – dev-lang/python-3.4.6 emerge Error: can't load library 'libpython3.4m.so.1.0'

• Status: RESOLVED NEEDINFO

I hit another failure trying to emerge dev-lang/python-3.4.6 on a fresh stage3-amd64-uclibc-hardened installation.

The offending lines seem to be these:

> Generating grammar tables from /var/tmp/portage/dev-lang/python-3.4.6/image//usr/lib/python3.4/lib2to3/PatternGrammar.txt
> Writing grammar tables to /var/tmp/portage/dev-lang/python-3.4.6/image//usr/lib/python3.4/lib2to3/PatternGrammar3.4.6.final.0.pickle

>  * ERROR: dev-lang/python-3.4.6::gentoo failed (install phase):

Fixed by prepending the stated LD_LIBRARY_PATH:

> LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/var/tmp/portage/dev-lang/python-3.4.6/work/x86_64-gentoo-linux-uclibc emerge =dev-lang/python-3.4.6

My curent workaround is to put that LD_LIBRARY_PATH declaration into the package.env mechanism.

Could you please add emerge --info and attach the full build log?
