When you submit a new bug there, its best to attach the results of "emerge info" as that will show what version of portage you're using, use flags, keywords, etc. which tends to help determine the real problem. > > I am trying to upgrade octave with emerge.

http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=73089 talks about an issue with that package when the "java" use flag was in effect. And are you sure there weren't more errors that happened even further back in the build process there? Those errors are probably just be the result of some file much earlier in the build process that didn't succeed. When I see errors like what you pasted here, one possibility I consider is issues with a parallel make... so try MAKEOPTS="-j1" emerge pdflib. Another possibilty might be that you had just upgraded gcc, or switched compilers with gcc-config, but hadn't followed it up by a "source /etc/profile". -- Scott Taylor - <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Death has been proven to be 99% fatal in laboratory rats. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
