I was installing Gentoo by following the "Gentoo Linux x86 Handbook"

When i reached step 7.b. ( Installing the Sources ),, i typ the command "emerge gentoo-sources" it wont get the directory /usr/src/linux.

when i do the command "emerge gentoo-sources" it start running, but at the end it says :

Failed to emerge dev-lang/pearl-5.12.4-r1, Log file:

couples lines further

Error: dev-lang/pearl-5.12.4-r1 failed (compile phase):

We cannot help you without more information. You can try doing 'emerge wgetpaste' and then paste the url that is given after wgetpasting the build log.

Monte5,

wgetpaste is a package to put things on the internet. You have it installed now.

When you use it, it puts things on sites called pastebin sites. When it works, it gives you a URL, so you can find the paste.
If you tell us the URL, we can find the paste too.

You can use wgetpaste in two ways.

Code:
<some_command> | wgetpaste
to put the output of <some_command> on the web ans
Code:
wgetpaste /path/to/file
to put file on the web.
