Re: [gentoo-alt] AIX: libiconv issues still ?

[Marshall McMullen]

Here the info you asked for:

Which permission does that directory have ?

$ ls -l /usr | grep lib
dr-xr-xr-x  38 bin     bin       9728 Nov  3 17:49 lib
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root    printq      12 Aug 16  2003 lpd -> /usr/lib/lpd

$ ls -l /usr/lib/libiconv.a
-r--r--r-- 1 bin bin 374809 Nov  3 17:44 /usr/lib/libiconv.a

$ ar -x /usr/lib/libiconv.a shr4.o
ar: Permission denied
ar: 0707-113 The fopen system call failed on file shr4.o.

Which permission does shr4.o have ?

$ ls -la shr4.o
-r--r--r-- 1 mdmcmull staff 111273 Apr 18 16:03 shr4.o

What is your umask set to ?

$ umask
022

$ strip -e shr4.o

$ strip -e shr4.o
strip: shr4.o -- 0654-400 Cannot open file.
       Permission denied

So, doing a "chmod 777 shr4.o", I can then do:

$ strip -e shr4.o
$ echo $?
0

... Does this help ?

That portage-patch[1] seems to be not yet in portage.
Grobian, is it because it is too much a hack (but keeps diffs small) ?

In France, there's a popular saying about Linux that essentially translates as:
"Linux? You can get a less powerful system, but it will cost you more."
