iputils error: IPV6_2292HOPLIMIT undeclared [SOLVED]

[fronck]

Hiya all,

I'm installing Gentoo on my new Via Epia MS 10000E with an Eden 1GHz processor, and it comes up with an error when compiling iputils no matter what I do (so it seems)..
I'm bootstrapping the system as per the FAQ in http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/faq.xml#stage12, and the

Code: Select all

emerge -e system

fails like so:

Code: Select all

tracepath6.c: In function `recverr':
tracepath6.c:114: error: `IPV6_2292HOPLIMIT' undeclared (first use in this function)
tracepath6.c:114: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
tracepath6.c:114: error: for each function it appears in.)
tracepath6.c: In function `main':
tracepath6.c:352: error: `IPV6_2292HOPLIMIT' undeclared (first use in this function)
make: *** [tracepath6] Error 1
make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

!!! ERROR: net-misc/iputils-021109-r3 failed.
Call stack:
  ebuild.sh, line 1539:   Called dyn_compile
  ebuild.sh, line 939:   Called src_compile
  iputils-021109-r3.ebuild, line 56:   Called die

I've scoured the forums and Google for this error, but it doesn't seem to have occured to anyone else. Ever )
As such, I suspect it may have something to do with my USE flags?

Code: Select all

USE="a52 aac acpi bash-completion bzip2 clamav crypt cups dbus dv dvb dvd dvdr dvdread emacs exif ffmpeg flac gif -gnome -gtk -gtk2 imagemagick imap ipv6 jpeg jpeg2k -kde mmx mng -mono -motif -mozilla mp3 mpeg ogg pdf perl php png prelude -qt3 -qt4 quicktime samba sasl sse svg ssl tetex"

Does anyone have any idea what's up with this?

Thanks in advance,

/Franck

Try emerge --sync and then re-emerge iputils .

[cyrillic]

Try USE="-ipv6", since the error seems related to that.

Try emerge --sync and then re-emerge iputils .

I tried this and it compiled. It didn't download a new tarball of the package though, as I already had it in /usr/portage/distfiles

I did an

Code: Select all

emerge --resume --skipfirst

after the system emerge compile failed repeatedly, so the rest of the system packages were installed. Perhaps this is why it compiled this time?

Thanks anyways, though

Hm, I actually put the ipv6 USE flag in there after the compile failed the first time, thinking they might be related..
