During execution of Stage 1 install, /usr/portage/scripts/bootstrap-2.6.sh fails on ncurses 5.4-r5.

Finalizing, after compiling glibc, it compiles ncurses again. And it is here where it fails. So I believe that the failure has something to see with new glibc Portage 2.0.50-r11 (gcc34-x86-2004.2, gcc-3.3.3, glibc-2.3.3.20040420-r0,2.3.4.20040808-r1, 2.6.8-gentoo-r7) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.8-gentoo-r7 i686 AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2600+ Gentoo Base System version 1.4.16 Autoconf: Automake: ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-march=pentium -Os -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" CHOST="i586-pc-linux-gnu" COMPILER="" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/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="-march=pentium -Os -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs ccache nodoc noinfo noman 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="-* x86 nptl pam livecd ncurses motif gtk truetype zlib gif jpeg png alsa"
Like ncurses it was the last program to compile to finish bootstrap-26, I decided to change the compiler manually: gcc-config -l [1] i386-pc-linux-gnu-3.3.3 [2] i586-pc-linux-gnu-3.4.2 [3] i586-pc-linux-gnu-3.4.2-hardened [4] i586-pc-linux-gnu-3.4.2-hardenednossp gcc-config 2 source /etc/profile emerge ncurses Now yes it also compiled it well, and 'emerge system' too.
I have been able to compile 'ncurses' from bootstrap-2.6.sh. I wrote in '/etc/portage/package.keywords' only this: sys-devel/gcc ~x86 sys-libs/libstdc++-v3 ~x86 Portage 2.0.50-r11 (gcc34-x86-2004.2, gcc-3.4.2, glibc-2.3.3.20040420-r0,2.3.4.20040808-r1, 2.6.8-gentoo-r8) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.8-gentoo-r8 i686 AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2600+ Gentoo Base System version 1.4.16 Autoconf: Automake: ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-march=pentium -Os -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" CHOST="i586-pc-linux-gnu" COMPILER="" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/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="-march=pentium -Os -pipe -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 alsa gif gtk jpeg livecd motif ncurses nptl pam png truetype userlocales x86 xprint zlib"
Interestingly I still get this bug on a regular basis. In the short of it, the ./configure script is picking up that there is no g++ (at least at that stage it can't discover one), but it is still trying to compile the files, only it is passing no compiler. Notice the line reads: cd ../obj_s; -I../c++ -I../include <snip> Right after the compile failed for me, I opened up the Makefile in the nurses-5.4/c++ folder and scrolled down, and on the line where it indicates the command to execute to compile c++ files, the command was blank. The above line should read (similar to the lines that are compiling C programs) cd ../obj_s; g++ -I../c++ -I../include <snip> To verify this, I executed the emerge ncurses command and stopped it a few seconding into configuring. It will give convoluted messages about g++ as follows: <snip> checking if you want to ensure bool is consistent with C++... yes checking for i386-pc-linux-gnu-g++... g++ checking whether we are using the GNU C++ compiler... no checking whether g++ accepts -g... no checking for g++... no checking if you want to build C++ binding and demo... yes <snip> As you can see, it thinks that there is support for g++ but it can't find the compiler. For some reason, it continues on and the configure script does not output any messages to warn you that it can't compile the c++ parts of the program. Rather, it will use the first example line to attempt to comiple c++ files and give the error message which comes as a result of this "bug." So, in short, the issue isn't completely resolved as indicated in all situations. To fix this, I merely compiled a new version of gcc (using ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86") and then used gcc-config to switch to the new version of gcc/g++. This new version had compiled g++ and, as such, was able to compile ncurses with nary a problem. As a side note, I managed to resolve this while trying to build a LiveCD using livecd-ng, but the problem still arises for me when I use the old bootstrap.sh on other installs. Where the root of this problem lies I do not know, but this is just my two cents about the problem, because I still run into it with almost every install I try.
