The two last patches (incl xxx53136) were mine, but they changed files that are outside the building tree. And there were no patches at all since then. I ran into the same error when I set up a clean virtual machine with ArchLinux, and downloaded the whole Yhc repo, on Jul 14. Looking at the inventory file, I see this: [Update scons build yhc, scons update and scons push to work with the new Yhc compiler directory Neil Mitchell**20070626130702] [Split out the gmp_configure bit, and only do it if building Yhi Neil Mitchell**20070626143401] [Add a little bit more trickery to try and get GMP detection working again Neil Mitchell**20070626144901] these are 3 last patches where GMP and scons are mentioned. Neil: did you encounter anything like this (scons fails on line 109 of configure.py) if building from scratch, before or after these patches? When enabling more debug messages in scons output, something related to "NoneType object is not callable" or similar, I'm guessing this is kind of null pointer exception in Python? -- Dimitry Golubovsky Anywhere on the Web

Are buildbot builds incremental, or they are done from scratch every time? Incremental builds to my knowledge do not recheck things like gmp as this information is cached by scons.

From http://www.indiegigs.co.uk:8010/macosx_ppc_3/builds/106/step-shell/0, it appears that the buildbot builds are incremental. Although I don't see anything in that particular configure log that deals with gmp, this is very likely the explanation why buildbot builds can continue to work, even if fresh builds fail. Maybe I should go and erase my buildbot slave's build directory, someone might notice ...

Perhaps you might try: this must force the fresh build.

I removed the build tree and forced a build, but somehow, scons wriggled out of trouble: The configure log output still says something about cached stuff and the build has now proceeded past configuring. I have no idea where this cache is located.

At least I'd narrow this down to scons itself (tonight I'll try to see what was done around GMP tests).

Thanks.
