4 Releng,
5 After messing with http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51277, I have
6 found an interesting quirk in the GRP build process.
7
8 It looks like the GRP set this user had was seeded with a x86 stage3.
9 How can I tell? His perl modules are being put into a i386 directory,
10 which is the CHOST of x86 optimized release media. I duplicated the
11 behavior by building two GRP sets, one with a x86 seed stage3, and one
12 with a pentium3 seed stage3. You guessed right - seeding with the
13 pentium3 stage solved the problem.
14
15 So, the moral of the story is, seed your GRP builds with a stage3 that
16 matches your subarch, or else things that depend on CHOST, like perl,
17 will be broken (and Chris will chase you naked through the jungle with
18 his QA axe).
