I was told I should try 4.7.9 (latest, not in portage yet).  Since
4.4.12 (is old ) and working I'm in no hurry to try to upgrade.  Will
wait for portage version I think, even unstable :-/

I wish there were some alternatives to phymyadmin in portage.

Out of curiosity, have you tried just grabbing phpMyAdmin from the up-stream 
website and running it as a regular PHP site? I've always found working with 
distro-packaged PHP apps to be cumbersome; more trouble than their supposed 
advantages are worth, especially now that most PHP apps can update themselves.

I ran into this some time ago and one of the updates removed the /lib ->

I simply ran `ln -s /lib64 /lib` and it was fine after that.

If the vhosts USE flag is unset, the ebuild runs webapp-config when
installing a new version. If you want to switch back to the older version
you should run webapp-config manually.

I've emerge "phpmyadmin-4.7.8" with "setup" and try to run run
configuration from from a web-browser:
http://localhost//phpmyadmin/setup/

but it complained it couldn't find any web-server.
So I rename the: config.sample.inc.php  to: config.inc.php
It found my server but same effect:
When I try to open a table to edit data inside I get an empty screen.

Then you either

3.4.0 from _2011_ is not even in the tree anymore (if it was). I don't know 
what happens on upgrades, but if this header is correct then your setup is 
still on a state nearly seven years old. Maybe check for that with ls?

With portage you install something like a "draft" to /usr, and then app-admin/

If you want to install blender, it's in the tree already.  Just emerge it.

eix blender
* media-gfx/blender
 Available versions:  2.72b-r4 ~2.79 ~2.79-r1 {+boost +bullet
collada colorio cuda cycles +dds debug doc +elbeem ffmpeg fftw
+game-engine headless jack jemalloc jpeg2k libav llvm man ndof nls
openal opencl +openexr openimageio openmp +opennl opensubdiv openvdb osl
player redcode sdl sndfile test tiff valgrind CPU_FLAGS_X86="sse sse2"
PYTHON_SINGLE_TARGET="python3_5 python3_6" PYTHON_TARGETS="python3_4
python3_5 python3_6"}
 Homepage:    https://www.blender.org
 Description: 3D Creation/Animation/Publishing System

 

If you want to install a version not in the tree, some really new
experimental/untested release, then you may can take those ebuilds and
tweak them to work with the new version.  Sometimes it is as simple as
replacing the version but sometimes it is almost a complete rewrite. 

If you just used blender as a example, ignore this since it may not
help.  ;-)

Hi,

sorry for my horrific bad English. I will try to explain, what I
intended to do, again. Hopefully this time with more success:

There is a package, which is "selfcontained". As an example here:
Blender, which can easily be downloaded from builder.blender.org as
*.bz2 archives, is also "selfcontained" as it includes everything,
what it needs to run successfully.

Despite the fact, that this way of packaging makes a software quite
independant from the layout of the distribution it will be installed
on, the maintainer of that package only support Debian/Ubunto and
has publishes onlu the commands needed to instruct the package
management system of thoses systems to install that software -- as
mentioned -- on Debian/Ubuntu-like systems.

As I am using Gentoo and wanted that package and didn't found any
other source and this package uses qt4 (included), I asked on this
mailing list for help, how to get access to the physical package,
which I wanted to unpack (low level) and try to get it working
somehow.

I dont asked on a Debian/Ubuntu mailing list as these are for
questions about -- beside other related things -- installing 
packages on Debian/Ubuntu.

I asked on this mailing list, since I wanted to run that
Debian/Ubuntu package on a Gentoo system.

Cheers

​Peter,

I would check /etc/portage/make.conf for ​a typo in the main variables
(CHOST, CFLAGS,CXXFLAGS)

I did some googling on this.  I seem to recall running into this once to
but can't recall what I did to fix it.  Sorry, I'm getting older. 
Anyway, check how /tmp is mounted, or whatever directory you have
portage's work directory on.  It seems that sometimes it may not be
mounted correctly.  I also found a somewhat recent post on the forums
that mentioned disabling the pie USE flag.  I'm assuming that would be
for gcc.  Posting link to forum to see if it makes more sense to you.

If none of that helps, maybe someone else will come along with something
else to try.

Well, yes - I think the question as asked has been answered, but I'm
trying to figure out what he was doing. I did assume he was going to
be using the packages with Gentoo somehow, just based on the mailing

This could just be a language barrier issue, but it isn't entirely
clear to me what the question is, and whether it has been answered.

The original question doesn't seem to have anything to do with Gentoo,
so I'm not sure why we're talking about "Gentoo's library versions."

If the intent really was to ask how to fetch ubuntu packages for use
with ubuntu then it would probably make more sense to ask about it on
an Ubuntu list/forum/etc.

If this is a Gentoo question and the submitter is just unfamiliar with
Gentoo and is using Ubuntu terminology that is fine, but I think it
would be helpful to have a bit more clarification, such as what the
end goal is.  Are we asking for tarballs of sources (distfiles)?  Are
we asking for binary packages?  Is this a question about generating
ebuilds for versions not in the main repo?  Is this about how to get a
.deb made for Ubuntu working on Gentoo?

I think everybody is trying to be helpful, but is interpreting the
question differently.  Perhaps the original submitter already got the
answer they're looking for, which is fine.

[gentoo-user] The return of the dreaded "Cannot run C compiled programs"

2018-03-26 Thread Peter Humphrey
I have a four-core 64-bit Celeron box with 4GB RAM, on which I've just 
installed a standard XFCE system on the desktop profile. It all went as 
expected, but when I ran an emerge -e world at the end I had two failures: 
both glibc and sandbox failed with the error in the subject line.

It's some years since I last saw this error, and I'm stuck. I've looked 
through /etc hoping to find something skew-whiff, and I've compared the 
environment with this box's, but nothing stands out.

Finally, following the hint in the portage output, I ran "FEATURES='-sandbox -
usersandbox' emerge -1 --color n sandbox". It made no discernible difference.

I've attached the logs etc from sandbox.

Has anyone a clue?

Regards.

I've never had this be easy enough I'd want to do it. Is it possible now?
I.e. grabbing all deps wouldn't be necessary if Gentoo's library versions
match the .deb's.
