Out of curiosity, have you tried just grabbing phpMyAdmin from the up-stream website and running it as a regular PHP site?

It actually was (surprisingly) as straight-forward as it sounds. I was successful at getting a network Brother printer to scan, just by following the Gentoo Printing Wiki.

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 Meino

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. https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1073552-start-0.html https://www.howtoforge.com/community/threads/error-cannot-run-c-compiled-programs.44647/ Dale :-) :-)

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