Hi, i have gentoo on amd64 running in 64 bit mode. i'm trying to emerge cronolog. but it gives this: /home/fadlouni:/emerge cronolog Calculating dependencies ...done! >>> emerge (1 of 1) app-admin/cronolog-1.6.2-r1 to / >>> md5 src_uri ;-) cronolog-1.6.2.tar.gz >>> Unpacking source... >>> Unpacking cronolog-1.6.2.tar.gz to /var/tmp/portage/cronolog-1.6.2-r1/work * 5 patches to apply ... * Applying cronolog-large-file-patch.txt ...

There are a couple of problems here. The first is that the cronolog tarball doesn't include config.sub and config.guess like it should. Thus when automake is run, it complains. This bug should be passed to the cronolog author. The second, fixing which would just be a workaround, is that configure.in is patched, thus causing automake to be run when make is run. To get around this, one could a) not patch configure.in, b) preserve configure.in's timestamp, so it doesn't trigger the make dependency. Alternately, c) create dummy config.guess and config.sub files so that automake doesn't complain.
cronolog-setugid-patch.txt seems to be the cause, when I remove that patch, cronolog-1.6.2-r1 emerges without problems. (arch=x86)
cool. without that patch it works for me also on amd64
I just tried installing cronolog-1.6.2-r1 on a newly built machine (from 2005.0, gentoo-sources 2.6.11, all from stable branch, x86), had the same error. Worked fine when I installed 1.6.2 (no -r1), although I had to do it the dirty way (via the ebuild file) because I couldn't persuade it to leave -r1 alone by putting this in /etc/portage/package.keywords: =app-admin/cronolog-1.6.2 Anyhow, 1.6.2-r1 *is* installed on another very similar box (1 month old) but I can't now re-compile it there. Something I've upgraded in the past month has changed things and triggered this bug (haven't upgraded Apache/PHP, just the usual system, glibc updates).
Having the same issue? So is bug not going to be fixed based on preceeding comments? Work arounds are a part of life. -r1 needs to be fixed or removed!
On further inspection I too have had r1 install correctly in the past. But now it won't reinstall which I noticed during a "emerge -e world" Something has changed?
Yeah, i see that too. Let me work on this some more to see where it fails and maybe clean up the ebuild too.
I added the touch hack in -r2 just so that it'll compile w/o failing. I already emailed the author to see if he can fix it upstream. In the meantime, this should let it compile. Cheers,

amd64, can you please test and mark =app-admin/cronolog-1.6.2-r2 stable? x86 and ppc are already done. thanks!
