Hi!

I installed Gentoo on my Laptop last week without any problems.
Since Monday I try to install it on my main machine. The
installation failed the 7th time now with the same error, so I am
quite sure it is a bug.
I use Gentoo 1.2 stage 1 CD.

I follow the build docs exactly, and everything works fine until the
first "emerge system"... the error always happens while installing the
Perl package:

Code:

LOG FILE = "/tmp/sandbox-perl-5.6.1-r4-20778.log"

mkdir:    //for_find
rmdir:    //fa/faa
rmdir:    //fa/fab/faba
rmdir:    //fa/fab
rmdir:    //fa
rmdir:    //fb/fa
rmdir:    //fb
rmdir:    //for_find


This error didnt happen on my Laptop. And the Laptop has the same
Perl package installed :/

Systems specs:
Athlon 800Mhz, 1536MB Ram, 210GB HD (Ultra ATA 166)

I alread tried everything I can imagine off:
- compiling without optimization
- pluging the ATA drive on a IDE port
- formating with ext3, xfs, reiser
- export SANDBOX_DISABLED=1 (this causes the emerge script to stop because of error while installing Perl....so it doesnt change much :( )

I should also mention, that I can't rerun emerge after this happens.
Emerge, env-update and every other python script is not working anymore
and exits with

Code:

ImportError: dynamic module does not define init function (initmissingos)


I hope someone can help me here, because it's really annoying, to repeat
the bootstrap process each day :|

Thanks in advance,
bAZiK

No one experienced the same Problem?
What could be the reason, that this happens?
I'll try Gentoo 1.3b today.... hopefully this brings
some difference =/

Sounds like a bad ebuild. Might want to file a bug... of course, after searching for Perl-related sandbox violations first. ;)

You might want to try rsyncing again... if it still fails, delete that ebuild (in /usr/portage/) and Portage will automagically use an earlier version (that hopefully won't have sandbox issues).

Alternatively, you could temporarily take sandbox out of FEATURES in /etc/make.conf, emerge perl, and put it back in. That'd be easy...

I don't know if you fixed your problem yet or not, but I was having the EXACT same problem with perl-5.6.1-r5 with gcc-3.1.1-r1... I was using "-march=athlon-tbird -O3 -fomit-frame-pointer -funroll-loops -malign-double -maccumulate-outgoing-args". Python was also breaking in strange ways (though I wouldn't find out until after Perl got the sandbox error), which led me to a lot of "starting over." I played around with the optimizations (I wanted to figure out exactly which one was causing it, so that I could at least use some of them). Turns out it was the one I least suspected (and tried removing last of course), lil' ol' -malign-double. If that was one when I was bootstrapping AND/OR during emerge system, it would produce the sandbox error and break python.
