[SOLVED]Ebuild fail for sabayon-2.28.1

[daschapa]

Hi, I know that sabayon-2.28.1 is still masked for most archs, but not for amd64. This is my case.
Before masking it to try emerging Gnome with sabayon-2.25, I'd like to know if someone knows about this problem.
This is what I got from the logs.

Code: Select all

checking for gethostbyname... yes
checking for connect... yes
checking for remove... yes
checking for shmat... yes
checking for IceConnectionNumber in -lICE... yes
checking whether x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc accepts -fno-strict-aliasing... yes
checking for consolehelper... no
checking for Xephyr... no
configure: error: Xephyr binary not found

!!! Please attach the following file when seeking support:

Xephyr is a nested xserver which usually is installed with the x11-base/xorg-server package, but it needs either the kdrive use flag enabled or the minimal use flag disabled for xorg-server, I think it's kdrive which it needs, may be both though.

what you need is +kdrive & -minimal

It didn't worked for me. I still having the same issue.
BTW, I'm using an "desktop" profile, not "kde*" or "gnome"

I didn't tryed yet (cuz I'm not @home), but I found this page discussing the same bug I'm getting.

Once added "+kdrive -minimal" flags, I've did the following and it worked.

Code: Select all

emerge --sync
emerge xorg-server
emerge -1 sabayon
emerge -uDN gnome

Thanks for your help guys!

I had this issue aswell

The solution for me was

1. review the COMPLETE Build log for sabayon

2. read the line that was clearly separated from the rest of the output just before the error in question.

3. line reads as follows : Pessulus not installed please install Pessulus

4. emerge pessulus

5. emerge sabayon

6. woot woot

7. problem solved!

bare in mind this is what worked for Me mileage may vary!
