Emerging cairo-1.14.2 checking whether float word ordering is bigendian... ERROR: ld.so: object 'libsandbox.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (cannot open shared object file): ignored. /usr/bin/strings: 'conftest': No such file ERROR: ld.so: object 'libsandbox.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (cannot open shared object file): ignored. /usr/bin/strings: 'conftest': No such file unknown configure: error:
Unknown float word ordering. You need to manually preset ax_cv_c_float_words_bigendian=no (or yes) according to your system.
Send help pls.

Anyone using lightdm-webkit-greeter on vanilla gentoo? What's the way you installed it?
Jason Walker
Obviously I could fix it manually. The problem is the LD_PRELOAD libsandbox shit.
Nolan Clark
Why are you even emerging 1.14.2, when it's no longer in ::gentoo? What's wrong with current stable?
Nicholas Bell
Whoops, that was a mistype. It should be 1.14.12
Angel Hill
Question remains, I guess.
Connor Nguyen
Yeah I guess I'll roll back to stable. I had it keyworded for a reason, but I can't remember why and portage isn't complaining.
What uses would BTRFS snapshots have in relation to Portage?
Nathaniel Gutierrez
Do I un-chroot after CPU_FLAGS... ?
Luke Kelly
No
William Gutierrez
Thanks everyone.

How often should I upgrade my kernel? Will things break if I leave it too many versions between upgrades?
Robert Myers
The stable gentoo-sources is good. It bumps up every few months.

What is the best way to fully automatize kernel updates with boot directly from uefi? The wiki way you still have to rebuild the modules manualy.
Brody Evans
Use a script and cron
Ian Thomas
not the elegant solution i was looking for but ty. Any good way to call the emerge @module-rebuild from the kernel post_install?
Easton Hernandez
use fluxbox

If you want a gentoo that just werks, you can use openbsd instead. all the control with slightly less aspergers.
Bentley Nguyen
But Gentoo already just werks

May be in a decade when amdgpu is ported

IIRC the kernel install script calls scripts from /etc/kernel/postinst.d/ alternatively don't use `make install`, but copy the bzImage manually (inside a script, ofc). If you use EFISTUB booting, copy the bzImage without version number, something like $esp/gentoo.efi so it stays static (and gentoo-old.efi for a backup kernel). This way you don't need to muck around with efibootmgr etc. every kernel update.
Hunter Gray
Anyone tested Funtoo packages on Gentoo? They should be the same right? Not much chgend there?
Caleb Martinez
Enlightenment is pretty good

How heavy are the custom animated/interactive desktop backgrounds these days for a modern hardware? They were kinda fun to mess with in DR17 a decade a go
Kevin Bailey
Any OS that can't run bluetooth by design is the most autistic by default in any comparison.
Take it to the BSD thread.
Ryder Thompson
not too bad actually, it's probably the heavier WM, but it still can be customized to use less resources as needed. I might try it on my thinkpad for a test.
Jeremiah Howard
How do I automate emerge --sync or some other activity?
Thomas Ortiz
cron?
Sebastian Jackson
Thanks. I should probably contact Sergey Brin about my Google ban, it was a pretty dumb question now that I think about it.
Cameron Wood
What happened to the wiki? It has been down for a while now.
Cameron Young
i already automated the process of compiling and copying the kernel to /boot with the name my UEFI recognises, from the post_pkg_postinst() of portage.
The problem is i need to use portage to rebuild modules (nvidia drivers) but it fails if i call it from the post_pkg_postinst because portage is already running.
Grayson Cook
What do you mean? The one and only good gentoo wiki seems to be working just fine.
Matthew Allen
Are there any bootloaders like systemd-boot but without systemd? Grub is bloat and I don't want to bother with efistub
Christopher Turner
The package database hasn't worked properly as long as I can remember though.
Tyler Thompson
Why doesn't gentoo have a torrent? I'm sticking to debian(net iso)
Noah Barnes
because debian(net iso) is a better installation medium for gentoo anyway, you only need a shell to do it
Jeremiah Ward
like other distros, it has a ton of mirrors
Isaiah Jenkins
> I can't torrent a minCD, so fuck this distro. Are you retarded? Also, you can use whatever bootable media is available, gentoo is installed manually/
Cameron Green
I have installed Gentoo over 20 times, and I am becoming increasingly efficient at it.
Gavin Hall
It has. Plus you don't need the Gentoo ISO, you can use just about any liveUSB/CD/DVD with a prompt, internet connectivity and filesystem creation utilities (most of them) to install.
I personally used Sabayon and Sysrescuecd more than Gentoo's own iso.

Say I wanted to install waterfox with portage.
Could I use layman to add the waterfox github repository as a new source on portage and then I could just emerge the package?
Do you have a kik or discord I can ask you a few questions at?

How do I disable this crap? My system is definitely not a SoC. The "Selected by" list is pretty long, and flags like "THERMAL" and "PCI" are among them. Does that mean that non-SoC options require this piece of code?
Brayden Green
Also, portage for some fucking reason keeps trying to install "libreoffice-bin" during --update, even though I unmerged it long ago and installed just "libreoffice". Now they keep blocking each other, and portage seems to ignore the fact that I masked "libreoffice bin". It's driving me insane.
Bentley Perry
Been really nice putting this machine together. Building it all up manually from the start of the handbook and then into getting a desktop manager and graphical login. Gonna just slowly start customizing it now. I gotta find myself a lighter weight browser though, this machine is really low end. Think once I get a better grip on it I'll get myself some more power.
Thanks for all the help here is what I wanted to say.
Kayden Watson
I think I figured it out. 'libreoffice-bin' was still in the @world set. The question "why the fuck" remain though. God, this distro pisses me off sometimes.
Luke Gray
do i use gcc-6.4 or 7.* for ryzen?
Leo Allen
Something else probably depends on that.
Both has ryzen support, your choice.

I have a problem with my chink USB DAC. Pulseaudio doesn't see it, xorg log says it's tagged as a keyboard by udev so it tries to use it as one. I've tried enabling every single sound-related kernel module there is with no luck. It just werks on other distros, so I tried using kernel config from arch, but boot fails claiming my root partition doesn't exist and judging by google I'm literally the second person to ever use a usb dac on gentoo, and the first one had no luck either, so I have no other ideas on what to do.
Gavin Walker
Check dmesg? Also try another usb cable/port.

what do i need to install gentoo? i dont have good internet access at home. only downloading the image at cafe. should i get 2gb iso image, stage3 tarball, or minimum stuff?
Brandon Murphy
You need a stage3 tarball and an installation media, it doesn't have to be the hybrid iso, you can use an Ubuntu livecd or whatever
