Everytime I think about typing something in a terminal I get 100 pages of what you see. What's amazing is that the pam_handlers.c file is not in /var/temp anymore, and I unmerged and emerged pam. Could be systemd was linked against libraries in build directory?

Gnome on the other hand refuses to show any text in panels/menus/gtk applications if I'm running it on x. Is there any relation? What may cause either or both?

I wanted to add that to work around the issue, I unmerged glibc, then reemerged it - which proved to be much easier than reemerging systemd by the way! -, then I unmerrged systemd, then reemerged the version just before the one I had from a binary package. The original systemd after I updated the whole system was systemd-255.4, which is failing to recompile, along with any version of systemd.

You have `debug` in your USE flags. i suspect that might be either the cause of the issue, or at least contributing to it.

Thank you for the reply!

Both the test and debug use flags and test feature were added together 8 months ago along with the valgrind use flag and the several python use flags, and I didn't experience this behavior before ...

To give some more perspective, this installation is almost a year and a half old, it went through change from split-usr to merged-usr, deprication of openssl 1, from non-test, to test and debug, and from solely a 64 bit installation to mixed 64/32 bit installation. So It's not strange that something would break! A lot got broken actually, and I fixed it, however this one is not easy to fix, and I'm not really experienced in tracing code and locating bugs ...

Hmm. Well, there are certainly multiple lines in the output you provided showing a `debug` option being used with multiple modules in the the PAM config files, e.g.

Code:
pam_handlers.c:_pam_parse_conf_file(79)] _pam_init_handler: LINE: session           required        pam_env.so debug

Looking at the pam ebuild, i don't see it explicitly using the `debug` flag to add such things to the config files, though i don't know if:

Code:
$(use_enable debug)

has that effect in this particular context. (My understanding is that the flag simply enables things in the source, rather than changing config files, but i might be wrong.) Have you added those lines manually yourself?

But perhaps someone with more knowledge than me in this area might be able to offer better help ....

That use_enable results in passing --enable-debug to the upstream configure script, which could do anything (or nothing) with it, including enabling source files that are not otherwise used, setting preprocessor macros to change logic in source files that are always used, or generating configuration files differently.

These are just status lines from pam, the "pam_unix.so", "pam_limits.so", "pam_env.so" object files are just required libraries for pam to work with the debug configure option. All of these libraries were compiled and available.
Code:
# equery b pam_limits.so
 * Searching for pam_limits.so ...
sys-libs/pam-1.5.3-r1 (/lib64/security/pam_limits.so)
sys-libs/pam-1.5.3-r1 (/lib/security/pam_limits.so)

# equery b pam_env.so
 * Searching for pam_env.so ...
sys-libs/pam-1.5.3-r1 (/lib64/security/pam_env.so)

# equery u pam
[ Legend : U - final flag setting for installation]

                  Please note that enabling this USE flag will create a PAM module that links to the Berkeley DB

                  services authentication.

                  backtraces see https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Quality_Assurance/Backtraces

                  USE=caps which uses capabilities at runtime e.g. libcap)
 - - nis        : Support for NIS/YP services

Nope!
I do confess needing to edit ebuild files from time to time to fix bugs, in addition to having to ebuild packages from the ebuild files with the --skip-manifest option for the same reason, But not with pam! :)

USE flags, and FEATURES enable/disable compiling objects of a package - just like Hu mentioned, they pass options to the ./configure script or meson setup through eclasses - and also build their dependencies, like the tons of packages that become needed when the test flag is enabled.

Thank you for your contribution!

Oh i understand how USE flags and FEATURES work in general - i've created / updated / fixed ebuilds myself, and have futzed around with FEATURES for various purposes. :-) It was the effect of the `debug` USE flag in this specific context that i wasn't sure of, which Hu has now addressed.

At any rate, i'm going to keep following this thread, because i seem to remember others encountering this sort issue a few times during the last several years, but i've not been able to find any relevant discussions in my browser history (or indeed via Web searches more generally) .... i initially thought it might have involved Gentoo users, but in the absence of being able to find anything, i also looked for Void-based discussions (as i was previously a Void user prior to moving to Gentoo a couple of years ago). Still nothing. :-/

More likely is, "No-one has any further ideas / suggestions about what the problem might be, or how to investigate further."

Even though the `debug` USE flag might now have effects on your system that it previously didn't, due to various other changes in the system, you don't seem willing to test that. Nor have you indicated that you've tried removing the `debug` argument from the relevant lines in your PAM config (e.g. the one i referenced). Methodically ruling out certain possibilities - "isolation testing" - can help narrow down where the problem might be, particularly in the absence of comments by someone who knows what the problem is likely to be.

In this context, people might be less willing to offer further suggestions, if they feel that you've already decided certain things "couldn't be the problem" (or at least contributing to it), and that it might thus be pointless to make such suggestions.

It's not that I'm not willing to try, and I have 2 reasons ...

First, in gentoo, if you change a single use flag for a system component you're going to go through lots of compilations, I've done it, tried it, tried again, tried it over. Whenever you change a single use flag, half the system will ask you to recompile. And I know you mean only in a package.use file, not in the make.conf file.

Second, through the compilations you get circular dependencies, which is a stopper.

In addition to that, my intention in having the test, and debug flags is not just for the sake of putting text in the make.conf file. I wanted to try debugging c code as part of self paced learning. But it's not that successful. I wanted to expand the debug and test and add systemtap as well ...

I thought that gentoo would help, because in contrary to LFS, someone worked on a recipe for gentoo.

That can happen sometimes, but not always. Did you at least emerge --pretend --verbose it here? What did that show?

This can happen, but not always. Often, it means you need to make another change. However, I would not expect changing USE=debug here to cause a dependency loop.

If that is your motivation, then I think you misunderstand what those flags do. I doubt that they would aid you in learning or debugging any particular language.

Per the global USE flag description for USE=debug, it is not suitable to set globally. So don't do that.

As for USE=test, it doesn't really do anything by itself (it does control test deps, but not running them). You want FEATURES=test to run testsuites.

My understanding of use flags and features both, is that they pass over configuration options so the make script adds or removes a target from the build process. Passing on the --debug option to the ./configure script for example tells make to build the debug symbols that will help gdb know which object files ".so" the executable was linked to at the time of compilation for example, and other information.

The debug flag is just like any other flag, it's local with some packages, and global with others, I honestly don't know much about the difference. To me a use flag is useful only if the package supports it. Much like the cpu_flags_x86_sse2, if a package doesn't support it, then it has no effect, but when it's added to the make.conf file, it will be enabled by default to all packages supporting it.

I do have both, but I think you got it in reverse, the test use flag is the ace, that doesn't work with some packages - I had an example at the top of my mind, then I forgot it -, but the rest are supported by it.

The problem with the testing on gentoo is that it's carried out by python and ruby scripts that are mutually dependent when you set up the flag globally, and setting a use flag per package for many packages is something very daunting, unless you're a scripting wizard, but you wouldn't need to use the test flag then!

Hu, I must apologize, but I already dumped my old gentoo installation, by that I mean I stored it into a xfs dump file. When there's time, I will restore it on a slower drive to know what happened. I promise you if I did that, I will send to you. I remember you asked me something similar last year and I promised you that if I did it, I'll send to you, but I didn't do the thing I promised to tell you about, whatever that was ...

It happens so very frequently with the dev-python/* and dev-ruby/* packages, because as I mentioned, many packages from these categories - after the test flag is set globally - wants to be compiled with it unset because in the test section of it's ebuild file, happens to depend on another package that depends on the 1st package too in it's own test section.

It would be nice to create extra sub package sets, like @world and @system, and call them @testing, or @desktop, or @audio, etc. ... Suse and red hat linux have that feature in heir package managers. It's very practical.

I want both the test and debug flags setup for 2 reasons, first as you can see from my cluttered make.conf file, I tend to dabble with software, especially operating system core, so I wanted to measure what I'm doing. Second, in order to be sure about the measurement, I wanted to know if the base system was working as it should or not.

I'm not a sys admin pro, but I'm trying to find an opportunity to join the wagon - which is being taken over by AI as we speak.

USE flags often, but not always, work this way. FEATURES can work this way, but usually are more about Portage logic.

That might be true of some packages, but in general, no, that is not what will happen, nor is it the right way to get the result you describe.

No, sam_ is correct here.

Portage already supports custom sets, which allow you to define your own package lists.

USE=debug controls assertions and the like unless otherwise specified. To get debug symbols, see https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Debugging.
