Whenever I try to emerge any package, the system ends up failing with src_compile errors Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Login to desktop, open terminal, su to root... 2.Type "emerge {package name}" 3.Wait for the errors to show up. :) Actual Results: The system starts getting the files and unpacking them, etc. The program then terminates, usually with an src_compile error and the program never works. The one program that I have tried several times to download is AMSN... Expected Results: According to the documentation, the program should download, install and then run as normal Portage 2.0.50-r11 (default-x86-2004.0, gcc-3.3.4, glibc-2.3.3.20040420-r1, 2.4.26-gentoo-r9) ================================================================= System uname: 2.4.26-gentoo-r9 i686 Pentium III (Katmai) Gentoo Base System version 1.4.16 Autoconf: sys-devel/autoconf-2.59-r4 Automake: sys-devel/automake-1.8.5-r1 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-O2 -mcpu=i686 -fomit-frame-pointer" CHOST="i386-pc-linux-gnu" COMPILER="" 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/share/config /var/qmail/control _*" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -mcpu=i686 -fomit-frame-pointer" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs ccache sandbox" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://gentoo.osuosl.org http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X apm arts avi berkdb bitmap-fonts crypt cups encode esd foomaticdb gdbm gif gnome gpm gtk gtk2 imlib java jpeg kde libg++ libwww mad mikmod motif mpeg ncurses nls oggvorbis opengl oss pam pdflib perl png python qt quicktime readline sdl slang spell ssl svga tcltk tcpd truetype x86 xml2 xmms xprint xv zlib"
can you possibly give us a list of what's failing? And, more importantly can you actually show us the log of the emerge?
Please reopen this bug when you can provide some useful information for us (See above comment)
"And, more importantly can you actually show us the log of the emerge?" Isnt that what I sent you in the txt file? Or is there some other way that I should log it for you?

File attached. Please see comments.
Though I'm a newbie to Gentoo this doesn't look perl-related to me. Some parts from the attached log file (attachment#39357 [details]): ... You have the full sem*(2) library. You do not have union semun in <sys/sem.h>. *** WHOA THERE!!! *** The recommended value for $d_semctl_semun on this machine was "define"! Keep the recommended value? [y] You can use union semun for semctl IPC_STAT. You can also use struct semid_ds* for semctl IPC_STAT. ... cd x2p; make depend make[1]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/perl-5.8.4-r1/work/perl-5.8.4/x2p' ... `sh cflags "optimize='-O2 -mcpu=i686 -fomit-frame-pointer'" toke.o` -fPIC toke.c CCCMD = gcc -DPERL_CORE -c -fno-strict-aliasing -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -O2 -mcpu=i686 -fomit-frame-pointer -Wall gcc: Internal error: Killed (program cc1) Please submit a full bug report.

Function src_compile, Line 215, Exitcode 2 Looks to me like some (Your local system) misconfiguration is killing cc. I guess this is not limited to emerging perl, consider adding something like "gcc: Internal error: Killed (program cc1)" to the subject. MichaelB: if You want Your problem to be solved, then You have to be more cooperative and being a little bit more polite might help as well.
Going to close this because it was sadly neglected. Please reopen if this occurs with a current version of perl. Looks an awful lot like a broken gcc flag to me though.
