[gentoo-user] python-2.5.2-r7 build problems
Hi, I had two machine that for some reason wouldn't build the 2.5 slot for python. I've waited weeks for the possibility that something would get cleaned up in portage or on a server somewhere but as of yet it hasn't happened. For kicks today I cleaned out distfiles and did an emerge -e @system but it failed the same way. I'm wondering what to try next? Is it allowable to remove ebuilds by hand? Will an eix-sync get new versions if ebuilds are missing and I change the servers that the machine is pointing to? Looking for ideas about how to move forward. Thanks, Mark

Thanks. I really see nothing else in the file unless I'm just missing
it somehow. I've grepped the file for error/Error/ERROR. The only
thing that shows up is this for 'Error':

make: [Include/graminit.h] Error 1 (ignored)

For kicks I erased the work directory which gets left around when a
build fails. That didn't help.
Mostly I was thinking if I knew what I could safely delete then I
could let emerge download new copies. I'm assuming that this is being
caused by some corrupted file on my machine, or on the server. If I
change servers then maybe I'll get a good copy, etc. It's weak but
this has been hanging around for a month. I've filed a bug. I haven't
heard a word from bugzilla folks. Not like the old days when you'd see
a response from someone within hours.
