Hi, I'm trying to do a stage 1 installation. I've followed all the
instructions on the handbook, having performed (aparently) the bootstrap
successfuly. But while emerging system, it failed during one of the
packages stating that autoconf was not installed.
Emerging autoconf --nodeps failed because it requires automake. Automake
on turn requires perl. Perl required libperl.
Finally I installed libperl, and attempted to install perl now. It needs
libgdbm. So I installed it.
So far, this is where I've come now, it is currently attempting to
install perl again.
I'm making this install on a slow old notebook and it is taking forever.
I've configured distcc (according to the handbook example) and I'm not
sure if it is using it. I have also activated the cccache.
On my desktop, I made the installation using the same CD (Gentoo minimal
2005) from stage 2, and everything was OK. I wonder why I'm having these
problems with dependencies. Any clues?
Thanks in advance.
