access violation when compiling media-libs/libgphoto2

[NicoT]

When compiling media-libs/libgphoto2-2.5.3.1 i get the following message:

I'm not sure if this is a bug or if there's someting wrong with my configuration. What has this old gcc version to do with it? I'm usig 4.7.3:

Code: Select all

gcc-config -l
 [1] avr-4.7.3 *
 [2] avr-4.8.2

 [3] i686-pc-linux-gnu-4.6.3
 [4] i686-pc-linux-gnu-4.7.3 *

Should i report a bug? If any futher information is needed please let me know.

Maybe some software you have depend on the old gcc. You can see that with "equery depends =sys-devel/gcc-4.6.3

For the sandbox access violation when merging libgphoto2, I think this is a bug and should be reported.

Thanks for the reply, i filed a bug report https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=508628

With the old gcc version i ment version 4.1.2, wich is not installed at all. Why should directory /usr/i486-pc-linux-gnu/gcc-bin/4.1.2 be created?

[Dominique_71]

I don't know, that's the bug. Portage should not try to write outside its sandbox during the configuration phase.
