Hi, |
2 |
|

I have just experienced the "Red Star" trying to emerge ALSA on one of |
4 |
my Gentoo systems. |
5 |
|
6 |
The "Red Star" problem has the following symptoms: |
7 |
|
8 |
1. An emerge is executed |
9 |
2. The package is downloaded if required |
10 |
3. The checksum is calculated |
11 |
4. A mysterious red star "*" appears and nothing further happens |
12 |
|
13 |
I'm running portage 2.0.33 with GCC 2.95.3 and have read about other |
14 |
people having this problem emerging ALSA, Nvidia drivers and OpenOffice. |
15 |
|
16 |
My guess is that there might be a new bug somewhere in Portage 2.0.33. I |
17 |
have read some people have seen this in 2.0.32. |
18 |
|
19 |
Does anyone have any insights to what is going on? I'm not a coding |
20 |
expert but I can certainly help out with testing. |
21 |
|
22 |
TIA |
