[ SOLVED ] xorg-server fails to compile >> lots of warnings

[Thistled]

Hey team, this is a weird one. I rebuilt my world the other night, and portage has borked on about 20 or so packages out of 1790 odd.
One of those packages is xorg-server-1-11.4-r1
The thing is, I am seeing a lot of warnings during compile time.
Therefore I know failure is imminent.

Code: Select all

warning: redundant redeclaration of 'foo' 

and

Code: Select all

note: previous declaration of ‘foo’ was here

I am seeing these warnings on nearly every line.
It always fails at Xephyr.

Code: Select all

Initially I thought it might have had something to do with the system re-emerging and older kernel (3.1.*) and building the system against that, but I am not sure if it is that.
I have downgraded my GCC to stable versions and rebuilt glibc against those to see if that makes any difference. No change.
I have now spent the best part of 2 days trying to nail this and I am out of ideas.

[NeddySeagoon]

Thistled,

The common theme is

Code: Select all

ld returned 1 exit status

The linker does not like you, or rather its unable to resolve some symbols at link time.
Your LDFLAGS seem sane.

Run

Code: Select all

lafilefixer --justfixit

which you may need to emerge.

Also some Xorg related things don't like to emerge unless

Code: Select all

eselect opengl 

is set to the defualt xorg-x11.
It shouldn't matter and I can't reproduce it reliably, so its worth a try.

[Thistled]

Many thanks Neddy.

But no luck. I ran lafilefixer and all files were up to date.
Xorg-server mesa evolution-data-server all fail to compile.
I am still getting the ld returned 1 exit status error.

I think I will now attempt to rebuild the system and take it from there.

Thanks for your help.

EDIT:
The last time I built the system I used the command

Code: Select all

emerge -e system

Which I noticed pulled in around 300 packages.
This time I have run

Code: Select all

emerge -e --deep system

and it is pulling in nearly 600 packages.
A lesson learned perhaps?
It might transpire my current problem is because I have only rebuilt half the system packages. (But I would have thought rebuilding world afterwards would have picked up on this)
I should know by around midnight tonight hopefully.

[NeddySeagoon]

Thistled,

Code: Select all

emerge -e system

can build a lot of non system things too as you get -uDN for free.
If you have the doc USE flag set, a large part of Xorg, doxygen and so on will get pulled in.

Try

Code: Select all

cd /usr/portage
scripts/bootstrap.sh
gcc-config -l (choose the newest gcc if required)
emerge -e world

Do not interrupt scripts/bootstrap.sh as its not resumable.
That rebulds your toolchain, lets you select your newest gcc, if its not already selected, then rebuilds your entire system.

Homework - what was scripts/bootstrap.sh origninally provided for?

[Thistled]

I presume it's a script to ensure the toolchain is sane. Or at least the bare bones are installed in order to compile a sane toolchain?

EDIT:
bootstrap.sh interrupted itself and started complaining about /usr/lib and /usr/lib32

God knows why there is a lib32 and /usr/lib32 on my system. I would have thought that was only needed if I was 64bit and was running 32bit apps within such an environment.
I have moved /usr/lib32 to /usr/lib32.bak and ran the bootstrap again.

It seems to have resumed from where it interrupted itself.
Currently compiling GCC-4.5.3 (the last package)

Fingers crossed.

[NeddySeagoon]

Thistled,

In the old days bootstrap.sh was called stage1.

It was (still is) used to build the toolchain that you then use to build everthing else.

[Thistled]

IGNORE THE ABOVE POST
I have removed libsexy and libsexymm from my system.
I have also removed ( to .bak) /lib32 and /usr/lib32 (again ) as baselayout complains about this.
At least now I am past the "libsexy" part which was stopping portage and preventing me from rebuilding my system any further.
Currently at 400 packages out of 1752.
Fingers crossed. (Again).
Nice weather in Scotland today isn't it Neddy?

Can anyone explain what this is trying to tell me?

[Thistled]

I've removed the offending package, and resumed the emerge.
I can't see any reason to have lha installed, and I am not aware of any lzh file archive on my system.
I'll start crying in public if it comes back to bite.
842 to go, and counting.

[NeddySeagoon]

Nice weather in Scotland today isn't it Neddy?
Especially after all that drizzle over the weekend.

Yep. Unfortunately, I've been at work.

[Thistled]

Yeah but it is nice to look out of the window and see some sunbeams for a change. lol.
emerge borked at sys-power/suspend, and in order to fix it I had to recompile with -crypt USE flag.

BTW, now that I seem to be fixing problematic packages by adjusting USE flags "along the way", should I rebuild my world (again)
when portage eventually finishes the world build?

[NeddySeagoon]

Thistled,

If you generally need the USE flags you have been changing except for a small number of packages, you can (and should) set per package USE flags in /etc/portage/package.use
You may want to populate that file, so portage is aware of the settings.

You should also search bugzilla and maybe pst bugs with what doesn't work. Then the devs will look at it.

[Thistled]

Thanks for that Neddy.

I generally set USE flags on a per package basis anyway, and tend not to do so globally.
I have a well populated package.use file just now.
I can't figure out why suddenly sys-power/suspend should be built -crypt, in saying that, I don't even know why it needs /needed to be built with it.
Awakening encrypted partitions perhaps?
Anyways, I am stuck with 287 packages to go as I have been hit with a webkit-gtk / automake bug.

https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=420591
Just about to try my hand at applying a patch in a local overlay to see if I can finish this mother of an emerge.

[Thistled]

Okay so the local overlay webkit-gtk failed. Problem at my end. I have other ebuilds in my local overlay and portage sees them, but not the webkits. Never mind.

It seems the temp solution is to remove automake-1.12
http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-7060762.html
Then re-emerge it when the "Failed automake" packages successfully build.

Still trudging along with emerge -e world.
The thing is, I am currently doing some decorating at home, and all the breakages seem to fail as soon as I leave the room, or as soon as I go to bed.
I don't wan't to use the --keep-going flag as I want to see what is breaking and implement the resolution immediately, after all, I am trying to build "world", and
get it right.
It's almost as if portage knows when I am going to be out of the room for a period, so borks on me.
120 and counting......

[Thistled]

Completely stuck now.

I disabled the kdrive USE flag, and then it compiled, but that didn't seem to be a good idea, as my system was complaining about a missing libEGL.so
This is going from bad to worse.

Thistled,

I have a bad feeling that this us related to your per package USE flag settings.

To see if it really makes a difference, you need to set the /kde profile the look at emerge -evp world output.
Green use flags are changed as a result of your profile change. You might find you want some or all of those flags.
This will destroy your emerge progress record, so --resume will no longer be possible.

The library that is supposed to provide the symbol _XGetRequest has that symbol definition missing for some reason.
I'm guessing its provided by optional code that you have opted not to have.
If this is really the case, its a bug in the x11-base/xorg-server-1.11.4-r1 ebuild, since portage should tell you you need the dependency built with a certain USE flag and stop.

Greetings Neddy.

Sorry I haven't replied. My system completely died.
First of all gnome-panel disappeared, then I lost nautilus and terminal and then the web browser.
Was afraid to reboot.

I attempted to downgrade the system back to x86 instead of running ~x86, as I gathered having a mixed stable and unstable system was what got me into this mess in the first place.
I am completely aware that in Gentoo land, all manner of nasty things can happen when doing this. Which is exactly what happened to me.
However, my attempt to move back to x86 completely broke my system.

I have not changed to a KDE profile in order to have a gander at USE flags.
In all honesty, I have not changed any USE flags in package.use for a long time, so I am not even sure if it is a change in the aforementioned that caused my problem.

I am now back to compiling an ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" system

Still, ebuilds are compiling now.

The Failed Running aclocal ! are resolved by removing automake-0.12.1 and the build is successful.

600 packages to go, and yet to experience a breakage, think it might be fixed now.
Well, fingers crossed for now.
