If you need support, post the topmost build error, NOT this status message. ===== I seem to be the only one experiencing this, given that it hasn't been reported yet, so I expect it's something with my setup, but I can't work out what. The error mentions a .config file. If this refers to the kernel config file, then it should be noted that I use KBUILD_OUTPUT to compile my kernel in a different place from /usr/src/linux/; the .config for the kernel may therefore not be in the expected place. I doubt it's talking about this file, but I figure it's best to give all the info I can. I emerge sync'd earlier, so my tree is up-to-date. I'm not sure what to check now; I hope this information is enough to help you suggest a few pointers. I did do a search on this bug beforehand and couldn't find it, but if this turns out to be a dupe, I apologise.

unset KBUILD_OUTPUT and see if it helps
Unsetting KBUILD_OUTPUT yields the same output as before, as does copying the kernel .config file manually to /usr/src/linux/.config: ===== downstairs ciaran # echo $KBUILD_OUTPUT /var/tmp/kernel-output/2.6.9 downstairs ciaran # unset KBUILD_OUTPUT downstairs ciaran # echo $KBUILD_OUTPUT downstairs ciaran # emerge -u busybox [...emerge fails with same errors as before...] make: *** No rule to make target `busybox'.

made sure KBUILD_OUTPUT is unset in src_unpack too ...
I'll be trying that tomorrow, but even if it does work it won't have been fixed, it'll be a klugy workaround, involving a manual ebuild edit. Based on this reasoning, I'm reopening the bug, although I haven't tried your workaround yet, so I'll let you know how I get on tomorrow. One thing; I'm fairly certain that the .config file referred to is NOT the kernel .config file. BusyBox itself uses its own .config file, with the same sort of syntax as the kernel config file. As far as I know, BusyBox doesn't have any sort of communication with the kernel files, so KBUILD_OUTPUT shouldn't be affecting anything. Again, though, I'll have more information on this tomorrow when I have time to try it.
what are you talking about ? i changed the busybox ebuild in cvs, i wasnt telling you to do it yourself
Okay, my bad then. Sorry about that, I thought you said "make sure" rather than "made sure". Having been able to try it now, I see it's been fixed, and that bug 88088 explains the cause in more detail. Feel free to mark this fixed or as a duplicate of bug 88088 now. :)
