 |
|
I tried to compile chromium.
The build failed during compile due to lack of ram. I added some more swap.
Now 'ebuild chromium-57.0.*.ebuild compile' fails the checkreqs stage because there isnt sufficient free space (due to the remains of the incomplete chromium build in /var/tmp/).
However 'env I_KNOW_WHAT_I_AM_DOING=y ebuild chromium-57.0.*.ebuild compile' also fails during checkreqs due to reasons unknown to me.
Is there a way to complete the build without having to sit through 10+ hours of compile time again? (Also why is the I_KNOW_WHAT_I_AM_DOING var not respected?) |

Since no one hasn't replied yet, I have a suggestion...

Try without "env". I have not used env to pass variables to commands from command line. |

Then delete the incomplete build from there?
If you run out of RAM, maybe try lower MAKEOPTS value for chromium (but I don't know what you had now).

Thanks for the idea, but env is needed because I don't use a sh-compatible shell.
…the problem has nothing to do with the shell though, I tried to run the build with export I_KNOW...=y from dash and got the same result. |

| You could try editing the ebuild to remove that disk space check. The next emerge --sync will wipe it out, but it won't matter for a one off hack like this. |

I'm not sure but does portage allow patching ebuilds itself vies some file/directory in /etc/portage..? That would be maybe best solution... if possible.
