Thanks. I really see nothing else in the file unless I'm just missing
it somehow. I've grepped the file for error/Error/ERROR. The only
thing that shows up is this for 'Error':
mkdir: cannot create directory `Include': File exists
make: [Include/graminit.h] Error 1 (ignored)
Parser/pgen ./Grammar/Grammar ./Include/graminit.h ./Python/graminit.c
mkdir: cannot create directory `Include': File exists
make: [Python/graminit.c] Error 1 (ignored)
Parser/pgen ./Grammar/Grammar ./Include/graminit.h ./Python/graminit.c
and this:
Compiling
/var/tmp/portage/dev-lang/python-2.5.2-r7/image//usr/lib/python2.5/test/test_multibytecodec.py
...
Sorry: UnicodeDecodeError: ('unicodeescape', '\\N{SOFT HYPHEN}', 0,
15, 'unknown Unicode character name')
Compiling
/var/tmp/portage/dev-lang/python-2.5.2-r7/image//usr/lib/python2.5/test/test_multibytecodec_support.py
...
For kicks I erased the work directory which gets left around when a
build fails. That didn't help.
Mostly I was thinking if I knew what I could safely delete then I
could let emerge download new copies. I'm assuming that this is being
caused by some corrupted file on my machine, or on the server. If I
change servers then maybe I'll get a good copy, etc. It's weak but
this has been hanging around for a month. I've filed a bug. I haven't
heard a word from bugzilla folks. Not like the old days when you'd see
a response from someone within hours.
