Everything seems to emerge OK so I've added your packages to the weekly autobuild list, and the initial binaries have been pushed to the isshoni.org binhost. To use, first issue:

Code: Select all

b3 # emaint sync --repo gentoo-b3
to pull in the necessary profile changes. Then you should be able to emerge nginx etc. via the binary packages. Let me know if you have any issues with missing USE flags etc., I just built with package defaults.

I install the packages successfully! Thank you.

Today I was trying to update the system but I noticed that the gcc-5.4.0-r3 compiler was a [ebuild] package instead of [binary]. Is there a way to get this (huge) package as precompiled?

CMD:

Code: Select all

emerge -avDuNg world
OUTPUT:

Code: Select all

Local copy of remote index is up-to-date and will be used.

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

It's because of the new pgo USE flag (commit 0591d59d). This is disabled by default, but is causing Portage to reject the available binary package, because the sys-devel/gcc flagset as a whole has changed since it was compiled. I build things for the binhost with --changed-use rather than --newuse, which is why that has slipped through; per the emerge manpage:
Unlike --newuse, the --changed-use option does not trigger reinstallation when flags that the user has not enabled are added or removed.
I'm rebuilding sys-devel/gcc-5.4.0-r3 now and will push it up to the binhost once available. That new version should install without issue. Alternatively, to use the current one (which is safe to do) you can follow Portage's suggestion above, and do:

Code: Select all

# emerge --av --oneshot --binpkg-respect-use=n  =sys-devel/gcc-5.4.0-r3

Updated gcc has been pushed.
I've also changed the binhost autobuild to --newuse, so this sort of issue shouldn't occur again in the future.

Migration of gentoo-on-b3 systems to Profile 17.0

I have just completed migrating the gentoo-on-b3 weekly autobuild host to profile 17.0 (as this has recently been stabilized for arm). As recommended, all packages have been rebuilt under the new profile, and, to avoid confusion, a new binhost has been created to house these, at https://isshoni.org/b3pie. This is now the binhost that will receive weekly autoupdates, going forward.

The old 13.0 binhost, at https://isshoni.org/b3, will be retained for historical interest (at least for a while), but will no longer be autoupdated.

To upgrade your b3 system to profile 17.0, follow the instructions below.

First, make sure you have at least 2GiB of free space on your B3's filesystem (use "df -h" to check), and that you are using at least version 6.4.0 of gcc (use "gcc-config --list-profiles" to check; look for the version marked with the asterisk). Then, if that all looks good, proceed to update your ebuild repositories, and portage. As root, issue:

Code: Select all

b3 ~ # emaint sync --auto
b3 ~ # emerge -av1 sys-apps/portage
Then, switch your profile to 17.0 (e.g.):

Code: Select all

b3 ~ # eselect profile set "gentoo-b3:default/linux/arm/17.0/armv5te/b3"
Next, switch your binary package host ('binhost'), to use the new 17.0 variant mentioned above. To do so, issue:

Code: Select all

b3 ~ # nano -w /etc/portage/make.conf
and modify the line that currently reads:

Code: Select all

PORTAGE_BINHOST="https://isshoni.org/b3"
so it now reads instead:

Code: Select all

PORTAGE_BINHOST="https://isshoni.org/b3pie"
Leave the rest of the file as-is. Save, and exit nano.

Now you can update the core build system. Do not follow the advice in the official news article to rebuild gcc, binutils and glibc individually (if you do, you'll end up building them locally, rather than pulling the new binaries from the binhost, which will take a long time). Instead, begin by issuing:

Code: Select all

b3 ~ # nano -w /etc/nsswitch.conf
and edit, if necessary, the following three lines so they read:

Code: Select all

passwd:      compat files
shadow:      compat files
group:       compat files
Leave the rest of the file as-is. Save, and exit nano.

Next issue:

Code: Select all

b3 ~ # emerge --ask --verbose --oneshot sys-devel/gcc sys-devel/binutils sys-libs/glibc
Check (when the above command prompts you for confirmation) that you will indeed be installing binary packages - this is a good indication you have set things up correctly.

Once this completes, rebuild your entire system for profile 17.0. Almost all the required packages should be available on the new binhost you just switched to, so this should only take a few hours (unless you have added many additional packages to the image yourself). Issue:

Code: Select all

b3 ~ # nice emerge --ask --verbose --emptytree --with-bdeps=y @world
b3 ~ # emerge --depclean
b3 ~ # nice emerge @preserved-rebuild
then:

Code: Select all

b3 ~ # dispatch-conf
to resolve any proposed configuration file changes (for the most part, if you had a reasonably up-to-date 13.0 profile system to start with, typing z to 'zap' (discard) most of these proposed changes should be safe; a lot of packages have been re-installed here, but you want to keep your prior configuration, not roll it back to 'shipped defaults').

Once done, reboot your system. Then log in again as root, and issue:

Code: Select all

b3 ~ # genup
Once this has completed, congratulations, you have migrated to profile 17.0! From this point, the automated weekly genup run should keep your system correctly up-to-date.

I'll probably release an updated live-USB image using the 17.0 profile at some point in the next month or so.
Edit: this is now out, please see my post here.

As always, any issues please feel free to post here, or email me (sakaki@deciban.com)

Best, sakaki
