The linked url[1] states that the issue is automake-1.13.1 (and .0). For the fix mentioned, i imagine it's the deprecation warning with -Werror, as the feature is not removed til automake-1.14, which isn't in-tree. I think 1.13.1 should be hard-masked, since it's clearly buggy, and 1.13.2 should be here soon. In any event masking 1.13.1 yourself should be sufficient, for others if not you, as you only have 2 packages failing. Then again, that's what you get for running ~arch ;p Still it's only compilation errors, not broken installs. Not sure what the brouhaha is about: Gentoo users tend to react to compile problems like other distro users react to broken libs, which gives the wrong impression to others (who thus think Gentoo is really unstable in their terms, when the true issue is that some software won't build.) Still, we're only human. Regards, steveL [1] http://www.flameeyes.eu/autotools-mythbuster/forwardporting/automake.html -- #friendly-coders -- We're friendly, but we're not /that/ friendly ;-)

They are doing what I'm trying except using Grub-Legacy not Grub2 so I'm fairly confident it'll work as needed. The info they provided: gdisk /dev/sdb GPT fdisk (gdisk) version 0.8.6 Partition table scan: MBR: protective BSD: not present APM: not present GPT: present Found valid GPT with protective MBR; using GPT. Command (? for help): i Partition number (1-4): 1 Partition GUID code: C12A7328-F81F-11D2-BA4B-00A0C93EC93B (EFI System) Partition unique GUID: 29884E5A-69FF-42E8-AB7B-0DEB95FB6EA9 First sector: 63 (at 31.5 KiB) Last sector: 81915434 (at 39.1 GiB) Partition size: 81915372 sectors (39.1 GiB) Attribute flags: Partition name: 'Linux/Windows data' Command (? for help): p Disk /dev/sdb: 976773168 sectors, 465.8 GiB Logical sector size: 512 bytes Disk identifier (GUID): 0F7425A1-EB79-4B6A-A7F2-1F98F8E7D8A9 Partition table holds up to 128 entries First usable sector is 34, last usable sector is 976773134 Partitions will be aligned on 8-sector boundaries Total free space is 5099 sectors (2.5 MiB) Number Start (sector)End (sector) Size Code Name 1 6381915434 39.1 GiBEF00 Linux/Windows data 281915435 163830869 39.1 GiB0700 Linux/Windows data 3 163830870 245746304 39.1 GiB0700 Linux/Windows data 4 245746305 976768064 348.6 GiB 0700 Linux/Windows data Command (? for help): q title=Gentoo Linux (kernel-3.0.0-gentoo-r1 boot-Test über PartUUID mit gdisk unique guid) root (hd1,0) kernel /boot/kernel-x86_64-3.0.0-gentoo vga=791 root=PARTUUID=29884E5A-69FF-42E8-AB7B-0DEB95FB6EA9 Notice that the did make a mistake in their post - watch the PARTUUID to see what I'm talking about. Easy enough to fix as they showed the entire gdisk info for the root= command.

[gentoo-user] Errors with /run directory
Hi All, I'm getting these type of errors in an old machine of mine: * start-stop-daemon: fopen `/run/chronyd.pid': No such file or directory * start-stop-daemon: fopen `/run/chronyd.pid': No such file or directory * start-stop-daemon: fopen `/run/chronyd.pid': No such file or directory * start-stop-daemon: fopen `/run/chronyd.pid': No such file or directory * start-stop-daemon: /usr/sbin/chronyd is already running * Failed to start chronyd [ !! ] * ERROR: chronyd failed to start error: error running non-shared postrotate script for /var/log/chrony/217.114.59.66.dat of '/var/log/chrony/*.dat * start-stop-daemon: /usr/sbin/chronyd is already running * Failed to start chronyd and so on, for other timeservers. There is a chrony process shown in ps, but /etc/init.d/chrony is shown as stopped. Is this related to the new udev derived /run setup? How should I fix this problem? -- Regards, Mick signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
