dmake OpenOffice libstdc++ error -> update, now compiled

[EzInKy]

Didn't find this one when searching the forums.

Nope...didn't work. It must've cleaned out the directory during the build. The ebuild script mentions the whole libstdc++ thing as a workaround. Seems weird that only the major version is getting copied (5), yet looks for (5.0.0)....

[EzInKy]

Okay, I got it to compile by waiting until the script applied the patches, then created my libstdc++.5.0.0 by copying libstdcc++.5 in the solver directory as the ebuild progressed.

It failed to install with access violations, but the image directory had all the necessary files so I manually installed everything and ooffice starts up just fine B-)

when you have a problem like this its wise to go to bugs.gentoo.org and post a bug so someone like myself can fix it. As it turns out this is fixed in openoffice-1.0.1-r2.ebuild (which is ~ masked).

Sorry seth...I was more or less "thinking" out loud when I was posting. I did start to fill out a bug report but stopped when I decided to try to copy the libstdc++ file after the patches were applied and forgot all about going back to finishing it B-/.

Sadly, doesn't look like 1.0.1-r2 fixed anything for me, either. It should be noted that I'm not using the ~x86 keyword, just selecting certain unstable packages. As a matter of fact, I now see that I don't have the libstdc++ that it wants - I will try upgrading gcc first and see if that fixes it for me. If it does, then maybe openoffice-1.0.1-r2 needs a gcc version dependency? I'm hoping it does work, as this is my third or fourth try on this ebuild, and it's a shame to see it get that far and die :-/

I just tried r2 myself and it got past the libstdc++ problem, but I note that yours died on 5.0.1, not 5.0.0 like r1 did for me. You can always browse to the /var/tmp/portage/openoffice-1.0.1-r2/work/oo_1.0.1_src/solver/641/unxlngi4.pro/lib/
directory to see what's there if you haven't cleaned it out yet (oo uses 2.3gb of disk space for the build files).

btw, my r2 build died with an access violation, which seth says is a known issue in another thread.

[CheshireCat]

It looks like OO-1.0.1-r2 wants a different libstdc++ version. I tried upgrading gcc, which wanted to upgrade glibc, which seems to have broken things quite badly. ls, tar, python (and therefore emerge) and numerous other things now segfault and die. Oddly enough, when I boot my rescue disc (init is hosed as well, but in somewhat more subtle ways, as I saw no apparent sig11s on boot), and chroot into my installation, all of these things work within the chroot environment. Since things seem to work fine in there, I'm going to rebuild most of the basic stuff (glibc, gcc, etc) and "upgrade" to ~x86. I wanted python-2.2.2 anyways I guess when that's done I'll rebuild the kernel (maybe my issue is a weird interaction w/ the kernel? seems that way, since the libraries work when I boot from the rescue disc), and give the whole mess another try.

I'm not quite sure whether my error is the same but here are the last few lines of the build output.

it failed on me twice (after 18hrs build time each time)

when i tried to run the setup prog from the image dir just for kicks, it failed with error copying xpm files, and in looking at where it was copying from, only .png files exist.
