The same goes for the poudriere build environment. When doing massive updates (like the recent pixman-dependent ports), I get a number of ports that fail to build. The number of failed + skipped was about 150 for this run for example. I also have gnome3 merged ports tree. When I tried to build the failed ports on host, the compile broke just as it had in the poudriere run, but when I re-tried with USE_GCC=4.6, most failed ports got built. So it looks like many of the compile breakage is related to not having base GCC42 on the system. While the gcc -> clang shift is on-going, it would be very helpful if poudriere.conf had an option to retry only once to compile a failed port with the USE_GCC (or several user-defined) flags. So something like: RETRY_ONFAIL=yes RETRY_FLAGS="USE_GCC NOCCACHE" Regards. ----- FreeBSD-9.2-stable_amd64_root-on-zfs_clang-only-world -- View this message in context: http://freebsd.1045724.n5.nabble.com/poudriere-feature-suggestion-retry-with-gcc-tp5848725.html Sent from the freebsd-ports mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
