Hi all :) New to this mailing list. I'm installing Gentoo and when I run revdep-rebuild I get the following error
# revdep-rebuild * Configuring search environment for revdep-rebuild gawk: cmd. line:3: error: Unmatched [ or [^: /[^[:space:]]/ gawk: cmd. line:3: error: Unmatched [ or [^: /[^[:space:]]/ gawk: cmd. line:3: error: Unmatched [ or [^: /[^[:space:]]/ gawk: cmd. line:3: error: Unmatched [ or [^: /[^[:space:]]/ * No search defined -- this is a bug. # I've been going through /usr/bin/revdep-rebuild.sh but can't quite fix the issue :( I've also been checking the Gentoo Forums and mailing list archive but didn't find anything (maybe I'm not searching correctly ;) If I've got it right, the issue is because of how gawk and the shell interpret the "[" characters so I've been trying to escape them ... but I seem to be doing something wrong :( I also get a similar error when trying to emerge qca: >>> Unpacking source... >>> Unpacking qca-2.0.3.tar.bz2 to /var/tmp/portage/app-crypt/qca-2.0.3/work >>> Source unpacked in /var/tmp/portage/app-crypt/qca-2.0.3/work >>> Preparing source in /var/tmp/portage/app-crypt/qca-2.0.3/work/qca-2.0.3 ... * Applying qca-2.0.2-pcfilespath.patch ... * Applying qca-2.0.3+gcc-4.7.patch ... >>> Source prepared. >>> Configuring source in /var/tmp/portage/app-crypt/qca-2.0.3/work/qca-2.0.3 >>> ...
