Re: [gentoo-user] CD ripper that generates song titles?

I have over 1200 classical CDs that I have only recently begun ripping to flac with freedb titles. I wrote a utility to do this that you are very welcome to try. It does not have an ebuild, but it should work as long as you install dev-python/cddb-py. https://github.com/jfindlay/jmoney Justin

Gentoo needs an installer program, like most other distros if you want your rank_n_file users to entice new users. nope. Gentoo does not need an 'installer'. We have way too many people not being able to read simple instructions already or spending 5minutes on googlethinking for themselves. Just look at this mailing list. We really don't need more of them. I disagree. There are always going to be people who don't read instructions or who don't even share your intuition about things. The most annoying aspect of using gentoo, and the place most fraught with potential wasted time, is the initial setup. It would be nice to have an installer that setup a complete, minimal graphical desktop, which could then be reworked by the user to their preferences and needs because when you start with something working, you are more likely to end with something working than when you start with something that is not working and in some contexts doesn't even exist yet. 'Gentoo is difficult' is not an existentially justifiable argument. 'Gentoo works' is. The more the latter can be advanced even at the expense of the former, the better Gentoo itself will be. Justin

[gentoo-user] wpa_supplicant cannot find crypto routines
I am unable to emerge net-wireless/wpa_supplicant-2.4-r1. I've encountered this on two systems now. The output included has been insensitively thrashed by thunderbird, so I've also pasted it along with some other info. https://gist.github.com/jfindlay/b3fc74bda7d4cfb5a2dc The first is the result from an emerge of wpa_supplicant, the subsequent two are the result of `ebuild $(equery which wpa_supplicant) merge`. Additional attempts at ebuild merging in this way always produce the output of the second ebuild merge. I've found these similar problems in a web search, but nothing seems to be directly related. http://lists.shmoo.com/pipermail/hostap/2009-February/019392.html http://ask.csdn.net/questions/61862 http://zhidao.baidu.com/question/360043934234201692.html I'm wondering if I have an unusual USE flags situation that is causing this, but so far the problem seems to be (related to) a misconfiguration in the wpa_sup[plicant build system. I am going to continue to investigate, but would appreciate any knowledge or experience anyone else can provide. Thanks.

[gentoo-user] howto disable automatic net.eth0 configuration
I have a laptop computer with an ethernet port, and during bootup dhcpcd gets invoked (twice) to configure a network connection on 'eth0'. I have set rc_hotplug=* !net.eth0 in /etc/rc.conf and RC_HOTPLUG=yes RC_COLDPLUG=yes RC_PLUG_SERVICES=!net.eth0 in /etc/conf.d/rc (why do these files still both exist after 7 years, especially as they contain duplicate configuration?) I have also set 'noipv4ll' in /etc/dhcpcd.conf. None of these configurations prevent the double automatic initialization attempts for net.eth0. I would just unmerge dhcpcd, but it seems that NetworkManager needs an external dhcp client. What can I do to prevent this behavior? What have I missed? Justin

What happens if you delete it? I was somewhat surprised by this too. I've been grepping through inherited ebuilds and eclasses to try to find where -fno-implicit-templates gets inserted into CXXFLAGS, but found nothing. Within the ebuild itself, the only files that contained this flag were the Makefiles (not Makefile.??), temp/build.log (naturally, but as a particle physicist I feel compelled to list the self interaction for completeness), and temp/environment. It seemed unlikely that gentoo would have put that into the default environment, and I found no references in /etc/env.d/, /etc/*bash*, /etc/skel/, or even /etc/. At this point I remembered that I was emerging through a chroot from another distro, and indeed -fno-implicit-templates came from a custom CXXFLAGS there. Thanks for giving me the idea to track this down, because removing the flag also removes the link error. Justin

Any idea where that file might be? Those two commands also don't mention it. Another way to get info is to power on the scanner and plug it in, then `modprobe -r` the appropriate kernel module(s) and then modprobe them while doing `tail -F /var/log/messages`. The kernel (udev) will create the appropriate /dev entries upon successful modprobe. In order for your user to be registered as a member of a group you have to log completely out (including your X session) and back in. You can verify your group memberships with the groups command. Judging from what you've said I bet it was merely an issue of adding your user to the scanner or usb group. My experience with usb scanners is they generally just work whereas when I start up my SCSI scanner I always have to remodprobe the kernel drivers and then `chown :scanner /dev/sg? chmod 0770 /dev/sg?`, but there's probably a better (right) way to do that. :-) Justin

I'm using net-misc/kiax-0.8.51 and for the past few months it has

very often, but still I'd like to find out why. I ran an strace on it
today and it's running thousands and thousands of this call:
fstat(6,{st_dev=makedev(254, 0), st_ino=3719182, st_mode=S_IFREG|0644,

This happens when I run it both locally and remotely over ssh -X. What
can I do to figure out why it's running so many of these function calls?

I think there is more going on here than gcc-config. I encountered the
very same problems on my machine only after having done an `emerge -uDN
world` and only having one compiler, gcc-4.4.4-r1, on the system.
Hans, I was able to fix gcc-config with `gcc-config -f 1`. However not
only is /usr/bin/gcc seg faulting but
/usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/gcc-bin/4.1.1/gcc is also insomuch that I can't
even compile this simple program without a segmentation fault,
int main()
{
return 0;
}
yet even after having done `gcc-config -f 1` the profile may be correct
according to gcc-config,
# gcc-config -l
[1] x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-4.1.1 *
but the compiler still gives segmentation faults. This totally baffles
me as `ldd /usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/gcc-bin/4.1.1/gcc` shows that gcc
only links in
libc.so.6 = /lib/libc.so.6 (0x2aadee5c4000)
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x2aadee4a6000)
and the mtimes on all three files (gcc, libc.so, ld-linux-x86-64.so)
are according to ls:

Hello!
In /etc/etc-update.conf, there's the using_editor= (with 0 and 1,

What's that supposed to mean? What does it do? When should
it be set to 1 (true) and when to 0? What's an editor? Or,
more directly, I'd like to use meld as the diff_command
tool - do I need to set using_editor=1 or =0?
From /usr/sbin/etc-update, which is a symlink to
/usr/lib/portage/bin/etc-update, the only reference to 'using_editor' is
on line 483. Here is some context:
function do_cfg() {
...
showdiffcmd=$(echo ${diff_command} |
sed -e s:%file1:${ofile}: -e s:%file2:${file}:)
if [ ${using_editor} == 0 ]; then
(
echo Showing differences between ${ofile} and ${file}
${showdiffcmd}
) | ${pager}
else
echo Beginning of differences between ${ofile} and ${file}
${showdiffcmd}
echo End of differences between ${ofile} and ${file}
fi
Basically it looks like if you have a pager set then you're 'using an
editor' otherwise it doesn't expect a pager. Seems like a redundant
config to me.

However, I've been having issues emerging packages. Frequently, the build will crap out and I'll get something like the following. Any idea why this happens? If you're getting the compiler segmentation fault on many packages at random times you probably have bad hardware. The causes I've seen for this are bad or intermittently bad ram/other hardware, or hardware failure over a certain temperature. The first can be easily diagnosed with memtest86+ as once the probe hits bad sectors you'll know about it. The second is much more difficult to track down but not impossible. If your compiler is segfaulting once the CPU hits a certain temperature, then you can verify this is going on by emerging a package and watching the temperature and observe at which temperature the compiler segfaults. Older Athlons run pretty hot. If this is your case you may want to buy the expensive silver heat sink compound. As for OS problems I don't know what to say except that this may be a sign not to run -mm or better patch sets and expect things to be stable.

There may even be flags in use.local.desc that share the same name but mean very different things to different packages.
