Something is clearly missing and the tree is currently broken...

[Oleg Vinichenko]

it's not broken. tha'ts caused by multilib migration. We would need to fix it.

The tree *was* broken. I have added many ebuild updates to address this.

 

What is happening is that Gentoo is updating some ebuilds to be able to build 32-bit binaries on 64-bit systems in order to get rid of the emul-linux-x86 packages. This is resulting in lots of ebuilds in Gentoo depending on these new USE variables. The ebuilds in Funtoo need to be updated to provide 32-bit builds and thus these USE variables. This is impacting a lot of "core" ebuilds, which of course are the ones that we tend to have forked in Funtoo.

 

Jean-Francis is going to be testing my updates, and we should be pretty much on top of this issue from now on. However, as Gentoo transitions away from emul-linux-86, it is possible that you may see very similar build failures (missing abi_x86_32 USE flags in ebuilds) -- just report them on bugs.funtoo.org and we will get them fixed as soon as possible.

I moved this thread to News and Announcements and deleted Oleg's announcement thread because it gives a better understanding of the issue.

Situation improved alot I  now just encounter issues related to my more or less clunky setup, thank you very much guys!
