System is kernel 2.6.9, recently built from stage 1, using Reiserfs. |
| 2 |
Very solid and stable for last two weeks. |
| 3 |
|
| 4 |
All packages so far have emerged nicely, with two exceptions, apache and |
| 5 |
xorg-x11. Both failed with missing file/directory errors in the |
| 6 |
/var/tmp/portage tree. |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
I built apache from the distribution tarfile in order to get a web |
| 9 |
server up and running, no problem there. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
It turns out the error when building xorg-x11 is specific to the |
| 12 |
fontconfig component, which also fails when emerged separately. The |
| 13 |
error is "cannot create regular file". After the failure, both the |
| 14 |
source file and target directory are present in the temporary tree. |
| 15 |

Partial output follows: |

Here are the source file and target directory in the temporary tree: |

| 63 |
I'm thinking about building X from the distribution tarfiles, but emerge |
| 64 |
is really nicer with respect to maintenance and I would like to use it |
| 65 |
instead. |
