|
|
i've recently installed gentoo and it was working wonderfully.
but then i was merging kde and i started getting errors.
basically, a package would download, configure, compile, and then i'd get something like:
!!! ERROR: gnome-base/gnome-libs-1.4.2 failed
!!! Function src_complete, Line 49, Exitcode 1
!!! (no error message)
and then emerge would break out of the process [of downloading the rest of the packages]
the one single thing i've been doing was to go into /var/tmp/portage and find the specific package (in this case gnome-libs) and manually doing a make, make install on it.
and then injecting it with emerge -i
however, with 80 pckages to install kde, this could get somewhat tiring, and besides, i'd like to know what the problem is....i'm totally fresh off the boat with gentoo so i've no clue what could possible have happened...
any ideas? |
