Re: [gentoo-user] /usr/src/linux gone
As someone said above, a possible cause is that /usr/src was a mount point, maybe with -obind, or even a symlink. Many people do this to handle kernels manually on their own $HOME directory (I do it this way myself). Another random cause I can think of would be some of the cruft cleaning scripts that there are around and that are not part of Gentoo. On a more paranoid though, it could also be a rootkit, or maybe your box was hacked. But, otherwise, you removed it, maybe without noticing. --depclean would never remove this, even if it was buggy enough to remove all your kernels (which it isn't) it wouldn't remove all the files that do not belong to the package, and there are thousands of these in any kernel tree that's been configured and/or compiled. Hence, the non-empty directories would never be removed either. -- Jesús Guerrero Botella

Unfortunately someone who knows more about what portage is doing than I do will need to look at this... in my glance over it I got the impression that it was magically conjuring the x86 ABI result from the ether, or something.

[gentoo-user] Snort and Postgresql9
Hello,
Before I file a bug report, maybe somebody
on this list has some additional info on PG9?
Well a routine compilation of snort, croaked
based on removal of pg8 and only pg9 being
on the system. Note: I have little interest
in going back to PG8; I'll leave snort broken
until I figure out PG9.
Here's were I have looked for PG9 information:
/usr/share/doc/postgresql-9.0
/usr/portage/dev-db/postgresql-base/
postgresql-base-9.0.3.ebuild
Here I find this:
elog If you need a global psqlrc-file, you can place it in:
elog '${ROOT}/etc/postgresql-${SLOT}/'
/var/log/elog
was not set up, but is now, on the
sytem in question. From another system
where elog and pg9 both exist I found:
dev-db:postgresql-base-9.0.3:20110219-195957.log
* If you need a global psqlrc-file, you can place it in:
* '//etc/postgresql-9.0/'

BUG 356001
From my reading on another pgsql bug, make sure you use eselect to set your
postgres version. After you do that, you should be able to merge pgadmin.
# eselect postgresql show
(none)
It seems the eselect mechanism fixed the problem for one user,
but mine broken, so I'll -1 eselect-postgresql and see what
happens...
same result.
guidance?
