1 Hi all :)
2
3 New to this mailing list. I'm installing Gentoo and when I run
4 revdep-rebuild I get the following error
5
6 # revdep-rebuild
7 * Configuring search environment for revdep-rebuild
8 gawk: cmd. line:3: error: Unmatched [ or [^: /[^[:space:]]/
9 gawk: cmd. line:3: error: Unmatched [ or [^: /[^[:space:]]/
10 gawk: cmd. line:3: error: Unmatched [ or [^: /[^[:space:]]/
11 gawk: cmd. line:3: error: Unmatched [ or [^: /[^[:space:]]/

15 I've been going through /usr/bin/revdep-rebuild.sh but can't quite fix
16 the issue :( I've also been checking the Gentoo Forums and mailing
17 list archive but didn't find anything (maybe I'm not searching
18 correctly ;)
19
20 If I've got it right, the issue is because of how gawk and the shell
21 interpret the "[" characters so I've been trying to escape them ...
22 but I seem to be doing something wrong :(
23
24 I also get a similar error when trying to emerge qca:
25
26 >>> Unpacking source...
27 >>> Unpacking qca-2.0.3.tar.bz2 to /var/tmp/portage/app-crypt/qca-2.0.3/work

39 Good, your configure finished. Now run /usr/bin/gmake.

49 Any hints, ideas, links, ...I could read into?
