I am reinstalling gentoo on a Dell inspiron 6400 laptop I am (again) using lvm2.
I just built the kernel and then (following the lvm2 guide) tried emerge lvm2 This required a build of help2man, which failed with >>> Configuring source in >>> /mnt/var/tmp/portage/sys-apps/help2man-1.38.2/work/help2man-1.38.2 ... ./configure --prefix=/usr --build=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu --host=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --datadir=/usr/share --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var/lib --libdir=/usr/lib64 --enable-nls checking for perl... perl checking for module Locale::gettext... yes checking for msgfmt... /usr/bin/msgfmt checking for x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc... x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc checking whether the C compiler works... yes checking for C compiler default output file name... a.out checking for suffix of executables... checking whether we are cross compiling... no checking for suffix of object files... o checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... yes checking whether x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc accepts -g... yes checking for x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc option to accept ISO C89... none needed checking for library containing dlsym... no checking for library containing bindtextdomain... none required configure: error: dlsym() required !!! Please attach the following file when seeking support: !!! /mnt/var/tmp/portage/sys-apps/help2man-1.38.2/work/help2man-1.38.2/config.log config.log is below.
