[gentoo-user] trying to do world update and dev-util/trace-cmd hangs

[John Covici]

Hi.  When trying to do a world update things get stuck at  the
folowing

>>> Emerging (1 of 1) dev-util/trace-cmd-3.1.4::gentoo
 * trace-cmd-v3.1.4.tar.gz BLAKE2B SHA512 size ;-) ...
 [ ok ]
  * Determining the location of the kernel source code
   * Found kernel source directory:
    *     /usr/src/linux
     * Found sources for kernel version:
         *     5.10.155-gentoo
          * Checking for suitable kernel configuration options ...
           [ ok ]
           >>> Unpacking source...
           >>> Unpacking trace-cmd-v3.1.4.tar.gz to

           >>> Source unpacked in
           /var/tmp/portage/dev-util/trace-cmd-3.1.4/work
           >>> Preparing source in
           /var/tmp/portage/dev-util/trace-cmd-3.1.4/work/trace-cmd-v3.1.4

           >>> Source prepared.
           >>> Configuring source in

           >>> Source configured.

           make -j1
           
BUILD_OUTPUT=/var/tmp/portage/dev-util/trace-cmd-3.1.4/work/trace-cmd-3.1.4_build

           AR=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-ar
           BASH_COMPLETE_DIR=/usr/share/bash-completion/completions
           etcdir=/etc NO_UDIS86=1 VERBOSE=1 NO_PYTHON=1 trace-cmd
           and the compile just hangs, so I cannot continue with the
           update or even emerge by itself.  skip-first says nothing to
           resume.
           

Any ideas of how o proceed would be appreciated.
