xulrunner emerge fails

Please always provide your "emerge --info" output when posting error messages. Also, are you sure that the listed message was the first error listed in the output? Further, you should probably provide the output of "emerge -pv xulrunner", so that all the relevant USE flags will be displayed.

VoidMage mentioned lafilefixer in another post, which fixed a different emerge failure. I'm emerging xulrunner again to see if lafilefixer fixed this one for me. We'll see what happens. If not, I'll post all the extra info.

Nah, this one looks more like a parallel make failure,
unless the errors began a few lines earlier.

Yeah, that didn't fix it. So here's emerge --info:

This is also holding up a Firefox update.

If not paralel make, then perhaps ccache ?
But put a few lines more, at least command that was trying to create
'staticlib/components/librdf.a' and the one that was supposed to create
'nsRDFXMLSerializer.o'.

sera, masking the latest sandbox didn't help. VoidMage, what did you mean to ask me to do?

This seems to be a real stumper, so I went ahead and filed a bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=267938

Maybe you should clean up your ccache directory inside /var.

Last time that I checked at work, I removed more then 3 Gig of data

I didn't. Although I should flipping KNOW better than to even ask such a dumbass question! :twisted:

How do I clean up my cache dir inside /var?

In fact, but by default it's inside /var.

3 gigs of data in only 6 months, so maybe you should run this before :

This worked - thanks! But...

Isn't it a bug if you HAVE TO clear the cache to "fix" an emerge fail?

I guess, that it was initially a parallel make problem,
that is due to parallel make failure an object was not built,
when it was needed for linking, but when it failed,
a partially compiled code got stuck in ccache and you simply had to unstuck it.
Though I do wonder if there's a sane way to manually identify the offending
object in cache, so you wouldn't have to purge the whole cache on such occasions ?
