    C Programming nerds

    I know nothing of programming or compiling really, not something I have ever gotten into, and I have a package that keeps failing on compile....

    Code:
    libdw_pic.a(libdw_alloc.os): In function `__libdw_oom':
libdw_alloc.c:(.text+0x33): undefined reference to `__builtin_va_arg_pack'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

    I've attached the build log and environment tables, hopefully it's somrthing simple someone can see.

    EDIT: FFS, won't let me upload the logs.... too big.

        This may sound obvious but its to do with the reference of "__builtin_va_arg_pack"

        its either a #define in a header (.h) file or is meant to be defined as an environment variable in the make files.

        I'm not a big *nix person, but I'd be searching files that contain the #include files from libdw_alloc.c that mention "builtin_va_arg" (ignore the underscores at the front as they can be added sometimes through the process)
        See where its defined and ensure that file is included in the make files... and/or included in the libdw_alloc.c that is asking for it.
        (also check if there are conditions that might make the "#define"or "<include>" of that variable/header conditional.)

        hope that helps somewhat.... I know sometimes I'm swimming in working out why packages arent compiling/installing.

          What brought this on? emerge elfutils?

              What version of gcc do you have?

                  gcc version 4.3.2 (Gentoo 4.3.2-r3 p1.6, pie-10.1.5)
                  I just emerged genkernel, threw it in grub and rebooted then kicked off the emerge of gnome again, it's still compiling so we'll see how it goes.
                  I may have excluded something from the kernel that's stopping gcc somehow.

                  EDIT: Cheers Tom, I'll look into that as well, might be an issue with 4.3.2 as well.

                    from a couple of comments I've seen instalingl gcc 4.2 will fix it, if your feeling lazy

                      Yep, was something to do with my uber-svelte kernel.
                      Compiled fine using genkernel.
