I had glibc 4 fail during the configure stating that I needed to enable nptl and nptlonly use flags. These were clearly set in my make.conf, however, the the flags would not set on the emerge line. Doing a little digging in /usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/x86/2006.0/make.defaults the default make config line showed -nptl as the default. This was clobbering the /etc/make.conf USE flags and subsequently clobbering the glibc-2.4 ebuild.
I changed the -nptl to nptl in the default make profile and the glibc 2.4 ebuild compiled the way I have become accustomed- in other words-- very nicely

Should the "-nptl" in the 2006.0 profile be there for a reason or could this be a bug?
Hope this helps!

Most people have the order of flags to go /etc/portage/package.use then /etc/make.conf then /usr/portage/profiles. You can re-order it by adding a line to your /etc/make.conf... I remember reading it in

Code: Select all

man make.conf

never actually seen anyone use this feature though.

USE_ORDER = "env:pkg:conf:auto:defaults"
Determines precedence for incrementing the setting of the USE vari-
able. The above setting will cause the environment (env) to over-
ride per package (pkg) settings to override make.conf (conf) to
override auto generated values from merged packages (auto) to over-
ride make.defaults (defaults).
***warning***
Do not modify this value unless you're a developer and you know
what you're doing. If you change this and something breaks, we will
not help you fix it.
Defaults to "env:pkg:conf:auto:defaults".

If you did not set this option then chances are you have forgotten a quotation mark on USE="", if you are using a text editor with word wrapping it might of broken line, etc. You can do a

Code: Select all

emerge --info

to test your settings after editing your /etc/make.conf just to be sure

Ok,

I rebuilt Glibc 2.3.6-r3 with nptl and nptlonly. Did a revdep-rebuild and rebooted. Everything was clean.

Then I did a upgrade to Glibc 2.4 from here and used nptl and nptlonly. It worked this time. Looks like the unmerge (after upgrade) from last time I tried a direct upgrade from 2.3.6-r3 with -nptlonly to 2.4 with +nptlonly missed uninstalling the /lib/tls stuff which caused my problems.

This time everything went clean.

Yay.. now on to break something else....

Wow

All I can say is wow. I've just finished compiling OpenOffice 2.0.2-rc4 with GCC 4.1 and Glibc 2.4.

I opened oowriter2 from Konsole and up pops oowriter nearly instantaneously with the lovely KDE widgets

I've never ever had OpenOffice run so fast on this computer (Athlon XP 3200+ 512MB Ram)

I did however have to kill readelf during emerge as it seemed to have gotten stuck at this point whilest complaining about the Text relocations

Thanks for everyones hard work

Nice, did you use any special CFLAGS/LDFLAGS ? I assume -Bdirect ?

I can't seem to compile OpenOffice 2.0.1 on GCC 4.0.2.

Seems to fail on either the LDFLAGS, CFLAGS. Then If I limit those, it fails on building the locales, though I have userlocales set in GLibc.

I guess it must be related to GCC 4.02, as I have updated binutils and glibc to to Nxsty's overlay. The only this I have significantly different is the GCC and my Glibc is compiled with userlocales and locales.build is set.

Guess I'll see if it compiles under GCC 4.1 when I get nerve enough to upgrade to that from 4.0.2.

Edit: what version of Python are you using? Is there a utility to ensure my Python is clean and no cruff lying around? Open Office is currently failing on build "pyuno".

Edit2: Here's the python I have: 2.3.5-r2 2.4.2-r1

Should I uninstalled the 2.3? Any reason I need the old one around? Perhaps that's my problem here.

Just emerge --sync'd and glibc 2.4 is now ~arch on amd64. That was fast!

roderick · Post by **roderick** » Sat Mar 11, 2006 4:11 am

I'm sticking with Nxsty's patch set for Glibc (qt, Xorg, binutils) until someone (Nxsty) indicates that the portage build is the way to go....

I've got this thing working great with Nxsty's overlay's and patches, so... Now I think I'll mess with GCC4.1 ... any maybe Xorg later.

nxsty · Post by **nxsty** » Sat Mar 11, 2006 9:31 am

The new 2.4 ebuild in portage lacks the -Bdirect, hashvals, amd64 optimized string routines and amd64 optimized libm patches so I'll have to continue maintain this for a while. I'll make a new overlay based on the one in portage later today.

chtephan · Post by **chtephan** » Sat Mar 11, 2006 10:41 am

I'm wondering why they haven't added that as well since glibc-2.3.6-r3 already has this stuff as well. Well, at least there's no ABI breakage involved with this stuff. Your glibc-2.4 from the overlay is working fine on all my ~x86 and ~amd64 machines (though I don't use -Bdirect still its political situation is still unclear).

xorg 7.0 and gcc 4.1.0 work excellent with nxsty's overlays on my box. and i'm with you ive been using these overlays for a coupla months now and have found my system to be very stable and super fast.

app-crypt/mit-krb5-1.4.3 has had issues with gcc-4.1.0 for some time now, if you add it to your package.mask it will use the previous (working) edition. Issues like this and more on http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-40 ... ight-.html.

I uploaded a new overlay based on glibc-2.4 in portage. I also renamed the gcc4ssp USE-flag to fortify as that's what it enables for now on. All the usual patches are included.

May I ask a stupid question?

If I want the the ld optimization flags, (like -Bdirect) and using binutils in the overlay, then the glibc overlay is a must have or should have?

Sorry for my poor english.

I mean do I must using the glibc in overlay in order to use the binutils in overlay?

You can either use my overlay or 2.3.6-r3 in portage, but then you have to modify the ebuild to not exclude the patches.
