Sorry Fernando, I just now saw this thread on an old thread. I think that 'sys-cluster/ceph' is where I'd like to test your spin on the gcc-5. Ceph has RDMA (RoCE) in the 0.94 branch (in portage). You are definately ahead of me on practical gcc-5 experiments with offloading and other new features. You did not list your second reference. Where I can I get/git your compiler and some brief suggestions on taking it for a test drive. I'm not much interested in the Intel simulator, atm. I like to test on old gear running gentoo:: borking is no big deal, if it happens. Other codes keen to test gcc-5 (offloading) on are Apache-mesos and Apache-spark and mesos-distcc. Also, per this doc [1] you can get your own gentoo overlay to put things up for wider experimentation, if you like. [1] https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Overlays/Dev_Guide Very cool, what you have done, James

I don't keep up with LibreOffice development, but I have been running into problems with gcc 4.8 (on ubuntu/centos) compiling some code making heavy use of C++11 and C++14. Not sure if LibreOffice uses C++11/C++14 though. > I don't want to spam the list with the build.log and I can't find a > matching bug at b.g.o.

Or > have something what understand? I believe you are correct that this is an artifact of bug 560088 [1]. The problem was that slim was breaking in some cases and failing to log in, but not in other cases. The workaround for this - masking the slim[consolekit] USE flag, fixed the problem but also caused other DE's to not be able to handle power management because the login manager didn't have consolekit support. A new version of the x11-misc/slim ebuild was pushed to the tree with a potential fix for this (and with the USE mask removed), so you should be able to remove the unmask you put in and rebuild slim-1.3.6-r5 to resolve this. 1: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=560088 - -- wraeth GnuPG Key: B2D9F759 -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v2 iF4EAREIAAYFAlX3VOsACgkQXcRKerLZ91lTgAD9H5dM1n+9dAAbr/75aSsvDQfp bVeZctMNfTAzDIInK0UA/AvYQBztZxbxHmb5EFIivVTi8lBvrlp1bX8I9lAwrZQw =DcsJ -END PGP SIGNATURE-

For future reference, here's how I did it... Step 1) run cdda2wav with the "-tall and "-v" options and do a screen capture on the TOC output at the beginning. "-tall" dumps all tracks into one large file "audio.wav". "-v" generates a verbose TOC Step 2) emerge wavsplit (keywording required on my system). Step 3) Here's the cddawav TOC diagnostics at the beginning, from the screencap AUDIOtrack pre-emphasis copy-permitted tracktype channels 1-20 no no audio2 Table of Contents: total tracks:20, (total time 44:09.01) 1.( 2:13.07), 2.( 2:28.28), 3.( 2:15.15), 4.( 1:53.73), 5.( 2:09.27), 6.( 2:31.00), 7.( 2:17.00), 8.( 2:03.55), 9.( 2:13.50), 10.( 1:52.62), 11.( 2:29.73), 12.( 2:25.28), 13.( 2:18.25), 14.( 2:14.73), 15.( 1:51.20), 16.( 2:06.20), 17.( 2:06.38), 18.( 2:29.37), 19.( 2:03.40), 20.( 2:05.05), Table of Contents: starting sectors 1.( 0), 2.(9982), 3.( 21110), 4.( 31250), 5.( 39798), 6.( 49500), 7.( 60825), 8.( 71100), 9.( 80380), 10.( 90405), 11.( 98867), 12.( 110115), 13.( 121018), 14.( 131393), 15.( 141516), 16.( 149861), 17.( 159331), 18.( 168819), 19.( 180031), 20.( 189296), lead-out( 198676) On playing audio.wav with mplayer, I determined that the TOC time for the first track was 3 seconds too long, which threw off everything else that followed. I tweaked the output in vim, and converted it to... wavsplit audio.wav -t -H 0:2:10.07 0:2:28.28 0:2:15.15 0:1:53.73 0:2:09.27 0:2:31.00 0:2:17.00 0:2:03.55 0:2:13.50 0:1:52.62 0:2:29.73 0:2:25.28 0:2:18.25 0:2:14.73 0:1:51.20 0:2:06.20 0:2:06.38 0:2:29.37 0:2:03.40 0:2:05.05 wavsplit, as the name implies, splits .wav files. The "-t" option tells it to do consecutive tracks. The "-H" option tells it to use hours:minutes:seconds time format. Note that this option requires all 3 fields. A dummy zero is needed for hours in this case. I changed the first duration from 2:13.07 to 2:10.07, which got things aligned properly. The result of the command was a subdirectory "audio", with 21 files, "01.wav", "02.wav",...,"21.wav". The last file is 5 seconds of silent filler, and can be deleted. The remaining 20 files correpond to the 20 audio tracks on the CD. -- Walter Dnes I don't run "desktop environments"; I run useful applications

'eix-test-obsolete', mentioned earlier is a great tool, part of eix, to use to list all sorts of items that need scrutiny. Granted you should not just blindly follow the advice of the items any given tool identifies as perfect. But these sort of tools are great to generate a list of things to look at with scrutiny.

Thanks for the reminder, Marc. I'd forgotten about that news item. When I ran "emaint all" just now I got "has outdated metadata" against five KDE packages. Does anyone here know what that implies?

From what I get about how this works. Portage compiles the stuff and then puts it in that directory to be merged onto the main file system. Once that is done, it should delete that directory but for some reason, it doesn't on rare occasions. When it gets left, eix-test-obsolete catches it and then confuses the user. If it were more consistent, I'd think a bug report would be in order but since we can't reproduce this thing on a regular basis, I think it would be pointless. Dale :-) :-)

It was just a fluke with portage. In one of the links posted it explained why that part in caps was there. Basically, there is no package by that name. It is just the way portage does things during the build/install phase. Yea, it's fixed now. It seems this happens on occasion with different packages. I guess we need to make a note of this, just in case. ;-) Dale :-) :-)

Most distros come with clever wizard type programs that try to guess what you need and do it for you. With Gentoo there is only one wizard, you!

I think Dale meant that the -MERGING- directory under /var/db/pkg/sys-fs was empty. This happened to me once too, and I asked about it here. As soon as someone said it was a temporary directory used during the merging of a package, all became clear - it should have been removed at the end of the merge but for some reason it hadn't. -- Rgds Peter

I think the package was intended for building initrds or embedded systems. A solution, as you have already found, is to delete the directory in /var/db/pkg/catgory. Wraeth is correct in that this comes from a failed emerge, I've had it happen once or twice and it comes up on this list from time to time. A cleaner solution may be to re-emerge the package, then unmerge it if you don't need it. -- Neil Bothwick Windows95: n. 32 bit extensions and a graphical shell for a 16 bit patch to an 8 bit operating system originally coded for a 4 bit microprocessor, written by a 2 bit company, that can't stand 1 bit of competition. pgpktiYDz4lSq.pgp Description: OpenPGP digital signature
