My first question is: 1> Does someone have a standard operating proceedure for on how to troubleshoot package compilation errors to get the most info possible to pass along to the list and/or Gentoo Forums?
2>Is there a log that is kept somewhere in Gentoo when a package fails with errors? If so, where please? My example below... This is the only one that I was able to catch from the shell output.. But allot of others failed as well because when I do a "emerge -uDp world" it keeps listing the same files that fail continously when I try "emerge -uD world"... The bad thing is, is that these take forever to compile and then they fail right at the end. My computer has spent all day compiling/upgrading 33 pkgs and these keep failing. I'm running with all Gentoo 2.4.20r5 defaults with no modifications to the make.conf file what so ever.. So I should only be receiving stable packages...NO? Calculating world dependencies ...done!
