I am fairly new to Gentoo (love it! by the way) and to Linux. I have searched the archives an not found an answer so I am resorting to sending an email to the list.
I am trying to update 'world' but when I do get the following error trying to build gnome-spell. The line in question in the build script says 'emake || die ...' <snip> mv -f .libs/spell-factory.lo spell-factory.lo sed -e "s|[EMAIL PROTECTED]@|"/usr/lib/gnome-spell"|g" \ -e "s|[EMAIL PROTECTED]@|0.3|g" \ -e "s|[EMAIL PROTECTED]@|1.0.4|g" GNOME_Spell.server.in.in > GNOME_Spell.server.in /bin/sh ../libtool --mode=link gcc -O2 -mcpu=i686 -pipe -g -g -g -L/usr/lib -o libgnome-spell-idl.la Spell-common.lo Spell-skels.lo Spell-stubs.lo -laspell grep: /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i586-pc-linux-gnu/3.2.2/libstdc++.la: No such file or directory sed: can't read /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i586-pc-linux-gnu/3.2.2/libstdc++.la: No such file or directory libtool: link: `/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i586-pc-linux-gnu/3.2.2/libstdc++.la' is not a valid libtool archive make[2]: *** [libgnome-spell-idl.la] Error 1 make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/gnome-spell-1.0.4/work/gnome-spell-1.0.4/gnome-spell' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/gnome-spell-1.0.4/work/gnome-spell-1.0.4' make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2 !!!

Function gnome2_src_compile, Line 39, Exitcode 2 !!! compile failure </snip> I am not a C guy, so I don't even know where to begin to find out why this is failing, thus my email. Can someone enlighten me about how to begin to diagnose my build problem? I can of course offer more of the output of the build if needed. Do I need to update something else first? Am I missing some lib?
