Mailing List Archive: musl x86 profiles: do they inherit from uclibc?

[.Let me try that again… now with the right email address subscribed…]

Hi all,

Just a silly question, do the profiles for x86 musl inherit from the
uclibc profiles at all?

Reason I ask is that when trying to do an `emerge -e @system` in a musl
chroot; it is insisting on installing dev-libs/libintl… then complaining
about musl's presence.

AMD64 doesn't seem to have this problem, only i[456]86. The only place
where I see libintl called out as a system dependency is in the µClibc
profiles. The only way I got around this error was to run the following:

> sed -i -e '/libintl/ d' /usr/portage/profiles/default/linux/uclibc/packages

If the hardened/linux/musl/x86 profile indeed does not inherit
default/linux/uclibc, then it shouldn't make a difference, but the fact
it did makes me wonder.

I haven't lost my mind...
...it's backed up on a tape somewhere.

So it's been discovered that in fact, they do…

Thus the few x86 users there are (probably just me by the sounds of
things), we'll have to hold tight a little while until the new profiles
are released.
