 |
|
Hi,
I'm trying a stage 1 install again. and before you ask, that is my normal way of installing Gentoo 
Anyway, the stage1 bootstrap currently always fails as below:
| Code: | >>> Emerging (1 of 4) dev-perl/Locale-gettext-1.05 to /
* gettext-1.05.tar.gz MD5 ;-) ... [ ok ]
* gettext-1.05.tar.gz RMD160 ;-) ... [ ok ]
* gettext-1.05.tar.gz SHA1 ;-) ... [ ok ]
* gettext-1.05.tar.gz SHA256 ;-) ... [ ok ]
* gettext-1.05.tar.gz size ;-) ... [ ok ]
* checking ebuild checksums ;-) ... [ ok ]
* checking auxfile checksums ;-) ... [ ok ]
* checking miscfile checksums ;-) ... [ ok ]
* checking gettext-1.05.tar.gz ;-) ... [ ok ]
>>> Unpacking source...
>>> Unpacking gettext-1.05.tar.gz to /var/tmp/portage/dev-perl/Locale-gettext-1.05/work
>>> Source unpacked.
>>> Compiling source in /var/tmp/portage/dev-perl/Locale-gettext-1.05/work/gettext-1.05 ...

Has anyone else tried a Stage1 install recently?

Perl errors during bootstrap is a well known problem. (try searching the forums with google since the forums search is limited) I believe that it is one of the reasons why stage1 is not a supported installation method.

LOL Is that why there's little about it in the forums 
BTW, i've re-installed Linux on average once a week for the past year as I've been writing an installer for use at my company so I know that stage one was be stable until recently  |

Then you shouldn't have any trouble fixing your problem...  
Edit: You wouldn't happen to be in Joplin, MO would you?

LOL.... if it was a problem of my making then I could fix it, but its the ebuild failing 
What really sucks is the older versions of the ebuild have been removed from portage too!!!! 
and nope, i'm in the UK. |

ah, thanks. I didn't know about CVS and hadn't seen that other post 
I'll give the "emerge --oneshot --nodeps perl" thing a try!
EDIT:
ok, emerging perl has worked so far!
Why's perl broken for a stage1 install? |

Perl is not supposed to get pulled-in during bootstrap. It should happen during the "emerge system" step. |

I know! but it fixed my bootstrapping problem! 
EDIT: ok, I've narrowed it down to the installing sys-devel/gettext:
| Code: | [ebuild N ] dev-libs/expat-1.95.8 USE="-test" 0 kB
[ebuild U ] sys-devel/gettext-0.16.1 [0.14.4] USE="nls* -doc -emacs -nocxx%" 0 kB |
Once this has been upgraded the rest of the install seems to go ok (well so far anyway)
Gettext is installed via the bootstrap process.....but for some reason its the upgrading of portage part that breaks the bootstrap with the Locale-gettext errors.....v odd, cos you would assume that if portage needed gettext then it would depend on it and auto-install it???
EDIT(2): Cancel that....sys-devel/gettext was a red herring emerging perl is the only way to fix my problem |

ok, I've been comparing the original stage1 tarball's contents to a working system and found the following differences as the installation of Locale-gettext seems to complain about an ExtUtils::MakeMaker file.
Anyhow, on a working system we have:
# find /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/ExtUtils/ | grep Maker
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/ExtUtils/MakeMaker.pm
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/ExtUtils/MakeMaker
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/ExtUtils/MakeMaker/FAQ.pod
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/ExtUtils/MakeMaker/bytes.pm
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/ExtUtils/MakeMaker/Tutorial.pod
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/ExtUtils/MakeMaker/vmsish.pm
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/ExtUtils/MakeMaker/Config.pm
and on the stage1 system we have:
# find /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/ExtUtils/ | grep Maker
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/ExtUtils/MakeMaker.pm
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/ExtUtils/MakeMaker
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/ExtUtils/MakeMaker/bytes.pm
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/ExtUtils/MakeMaker/vmsish.pm
It seems that there are more files in the latest version of perl....even tho its the same version
Looks like the stage1 tarball is out of date  |

I got the same problem here, and no stage3 will not be an option for me. I don't like that. Start with a broken system form the beginning. And no stage3 is still not an option, exactly those errors are why I believe in stage1. Someone works around it to build the stage3 - and everyone gets a crappy system right away. No real quality anymore
So the only fix is to merge perl? Except - perl fails too:
| Code: | miniperlmain.o opmini.o libperl.a -lpthread -lnsl -ldl -lm -lcrypt -lutil -lc
./miniperl -w -Ilib -MExporter -e '<?>' || make minitest

You may see some irrelevant test failures if you have been unable
to build lib/Config.pm, lib/lib.pm or the Unicode data files.

It's such a shame that Gentoo is going this way ..... I think it's such a FAB operating system!!! 
Make sure you don't have the "build" flag on when making perl before you chroot things. |

This is probably something different.
You might be using the wrong CFLAGS for the type of CPU that you have. |

That's what I figured out too. Well I basically started off from scratch again and so far everything worked. But yes it is a shame and a very downside for Gentoo to go this way. I guess we have to wait until the same stupid things like to all the other distributions happens: another fork... (can't you see, that this just distracts all the power and energy?)
Edit: it's texinfo now...(it almost seems to be random...)
