I wasn't able to install the binary package properly (as ldconfig is |
19 |
called during the emerge process). However as I was stracing the |
20 |
ldconfig output to compare with the working setup I realised I wasn't |
21 |
logging stderr so hit Ctrl-C and restarted ldconfig. |
22 |
|
23 |
This seems to of "unstuck" the ldconfig failure and I have been able to |
24 |
run ldconfig without breaking things since. I've done a proper src |
25 |
emerge of glibc on a chrooted in my original partiton and everything |
26 |
seems to be working ok now. |

|
28 |
The config has been updated during the env-update so I wonder if it was |
29 |
a subtle breakage in the config that was causing the failure? |

If you had better tools, you could more effectively demonstrate your |
50 |
total incompetence. |
