Googling above or similar is getting me nothing useful: 70% non-English |
2 |
pages, and of the remainder, 90% questions without answers (from |
3 |
forums.gentoo.org), and of those with answers, answers specific to packages |
4 |
bearing no apparent relationship to those failing to emerge for me. There are |
5 |
plenty hits for 'die "econf failed"' and 'ERROR:...failed (compile phase)', |
6 |
just nothing useful. |

How can my attempts to follow the Handbook instructions have failed so |
9 |
miserably that I can't even emerge such a basic package as Grub Legacy? |
10 |
|
11 |
http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/Linux/G/ has my build.log, config.log and |
12 |
eclass-debug.log files from 6 different emerge failures, plus output of |
13 |
emerge --info. Is there something akin to a Handbook page that describes |
14 |
similar failures and how to fix them? Is my problem not a common blocker for |
15 |
new users? How can I make any progress with everything hitting this |
16 |
apparently same or similar problem? Since I got a working kernel and mc, I've |
17 |
not managed to get anything else to emerge. :-( |

As an aside, pages like http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/asneeded.xml don't |
20 |
fit. My browser viewport can be up to 1392px wide, and yet there's a |
21 |
horizontal scroll of 50% or so, making it really difficult to use such pages. |
22 |
I can dezoom to make the scollbar go away, but of course that restores the |
23 |
original illegibility for the pages' CSS. |
