Description Piotr Karbowski (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2021-12-10 19:29:42 UTC 
Currently firefox do not builds on ~amd64 if wayland is installed, regardless of wayland USE flag. If wayland is installed with USE=-wayland we get

    error: undefined symbol: wl_proxy_marshal_flags

If wayland is not installed with USE=-wayland we get

Error running mach:

    ['configure']

The error occurred in code that was called by the mach command. This is either
a bug in the called code itself or in the way that mach is calling it.

The 'mach' script is really broken, on the top of above, it will also crash if it happens to find pip and system have any Python package with broken dependencies.
Comment 1 John Helmert III archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2021-12-10 19:35:50 UTC 
I hit this only once I added USE=pgo for 95.
Comment 2 Georgy Yakovlev archtester gentoo-dev 2021-12-10 21:56:40 UTC 
I hit it with USE=lto
not with pgo
on ppc64

after recent dev-libs/wayland update

worked fine with versions prior to 1.20.0
Comment 3 John Helmert III archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2021-12-10 21:59:46 UTC 
Ok, sounds like I'm wrong. I toggled USE=pgo after updating wayland so I attributed the build failure to the wrong change.
Comment 4 Perfect Gentleman 2021-12-11 09:12:31 UTC 
adding to LDFLAGS '-lwayland-client' is some kind of workaround.
Comment 5 Fulgurance 2021-12-11 14:46:18 UTC 
I have this error for me as well, but without lto and pgo use flag
