Thanks for your reply. But I'm not confident that this is the correct procedure for what I want. I have already gcc latest version: # qpkg -I -v -nc gcc sys-devel/gcc-config-1.2.7 sys-devel/gcc-3.2.1-r6 sys-devel/gcc-compat-1.4 But I now also want to install gcc-2.95.3-r8: emerge --pretend /usr/portage/sys-devel/gcc/gcc-2.95.3-r8.ebuild These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating dependencies ...done! [ebuild UD] sys-devel/gcc-2.95.3-r8 [3.2.1-r6] The 'D' I assume indicates that gcc-3.2.1-r6 will be removed. That I don't want. I need glibc2 as separate runtime libraries in order to make some proprietary software run (Matlab). Or else I have to downgrade to glibc2 - but I thought that should not be necessary.
