Here is the error I am getting when I try to update xorg...
Code: | QA Notice: the following files are setXid, dyn linked, and using lazy bindings
This combination is generally discouraged. Try re-emerging the package:
LDFLAGS='-Wl,-z,now' emerge xorg-server

!!! Cannot write to '/usr/share/X11/xkb/compiled'.
!!! Please check permissions and directories for broken symlinks.
!!! You may start the merge process again by using ebuild:
!!! ebuild /usr/portage/x11-base/xorg-server/xorg-server-1.1.1-r1.ebuild merge
!!! And finish by running this: env-update

I tried this command but I get the same error...
Code: | LDFLAGS='-Wl,-z,now' emerge xorg-server |
Also the compiled file links to /var/lib/xkb.
Can someone help me out here please. This is really annoying. Thanks.

You might need to re-emerge xkeyboard-config.
Code: | emerge -av --oneshot xkeyboard-config |

To create /var/lib/xkb, which is pointed to by that symlink:

Re-sync with Portage, then re-emerge xkbcomp. It is done by this command in /usr/portage/x11-apps/xkbcomp/xkbcomp-1.0.2.ebuild

Thanks for the replies. I got this problem fixed. What I did was to unmerge xkbcomp and then emerge it again. This created the directory I needed and allowed xorg-server to be compiled and installed. Again thanks for the help. |

...and thanks for this thread. I've just encountered the same problem, and it all worked after unmerging and emerging xkbcomp.
