how to set arch when missing (raspberry pi)

[rsa4046]

HI,

I've followed funtoo's howto for this cpu (raspberry pi, ARMv7 Processor rev 5 (v7l)) and did emerge --sync OK, so far so good. But the results of eselect profile indicate that arch is still not set:

rpi # eselect profile show

Currently set profiles:
    arch: (missing)
   build: gentoo:funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/build/current
  flavor: gentoo:funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/flavor/core
(no type): gentoo:funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/arch/arm-32bit/armv7a_hardfp

Can I ask how I'd set this? The contents of  /etc/portage/make.profile/parent are

# cat /etc/portage/make.profile/parent
gentoo:funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/arch/arm-32bit/armv7a_hardfp
gentoo:funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/build/current
gentoo:funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/flavor/core

I should have studied the output more closely: changing /usr/portage/profiles/funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/arch/arm-32bit/armv7a_hardfp to /usr/portage/profiles/funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/arch/subarch/armv7a_hardfp corrected this ...

 

Edit: corrected: first line of parent should just read

gentoo:funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/arch/arm-32bit

ack ack ack, no ego package!  drats were just going to have to make that then....

man ego

 

&&

 

man epro

Thanks -- but ego and epro aren't available( app-admin/ego wasn't in stage3), and I can't emerge any packages with an invalid profile:

# emerge ego -va
!!! Unable to parse profile: '/etc/portage/make.profile'
!!! ParseError: Parent '/usr/portage/profiles/funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/arch/arm-32bit/armv7a_hardfp' not found: '/etc/portage/make.profile/parent'
!!! Your current profile is invalid. If you have just changed your profile
!!! configuration, you should revert back to the previous configuration.
!!! Allowed actions are limited to --help, --info, --search, --sync, and

You are not supposed to change this yourself. How comes that armv7a_hardfp were in /usr/portage/profiles/funtoo/1.0/linux-gnu/arch/arm-32bit/ ?

 

You are not supposed to change /etc/portage/make.profile/parent yourself either. Ego is supposed to be included in stage3.

pytony: thanks for the reply. Know I'm not supposed to fiddle with make.profile/parent directly, but couldn't see any other way of correcting arch. Don't know how this came about initially ... used stage from http://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/funtoo/funtoo-current/arm-32bit/armv7a_hardfp/stage3-latest.tar.xz

If you had to manually edit make.profile/parent, this is either a bug or bad usage. I think you should file a bug : https://bugs.funtoo.org/(or ask on IRC first).
