I didn't wipe it out, I renamed it to something else, so I can switch back to it if I need to. I certainly don't have the faintest idea about how to diagnose it, beyond the naive steps I've already taken. And I need to get back to my real job, which is writing apps for this system, instead of building the distro. If there's anything you can think of that I should try, I'd be happy to do so. That said, rebuilding tmp (preserving downloads and sstate-cache) did indeed fix that problem, but it was replaced with another. Now, do_rootfs is failing, complaining that it "cannot satisfy the following dependencies for samba: libpam (>= 1.1.6)". Yet there's libpam, version 1.1.6, right where it's always been in the metadata. Doing a clean and a cleansstate on libpam didn't help. Now I'm trying rebuilding samba, but that's a huge package so it will take a while. The only way I can get any real work done at the moment is to make manual changes to the last good build I had. -- Ciao, Paul D.
