Subject: [gentoo-dev] Help tracking down build failure
Date: Sun, 17 Oct 2004 13:19:15
Message-Id: 20041017131918.GA12755@sdf.lonestar.org
1 I maintain the at&t ksh package, app-shells/ksh, which is currently
2 failing to build for some people and not for others.
3
4 The package works fine for me, and I can't reproduce any of the problems
5 other people are reporting, unfortunately the non-standard build process
6 is very complex and difficult to follow.
7
8 I would appreciate any help in tracking this bug down, if anyone on this
9 list can spare a few minutes to try and build ksh and email me the the
10 make.out if it fails (preferably gzipped!) and the output of emerge info,
11 or if anyone can provide any insight on why this might be happening, I
12 would really appreciate it.
13
14 You can find the make.out like this:
15
16 find $(portageq envvar PORTAGE_TMPDIR)/portage/ksh-93.20040229 -name make.out
