Gentooers: For some reason or another--either of which are unbeknownst to me--while running 'emerge -u world,' gcc-3.3.2-r5 just will not compile. I've done a little bit of messing with CFLAGS, to no avail. So, I'm using the handy dandy --skipfirst option with emerge to *hopefully* plow through the rest of the list. And, of course, this now brings up some questions.
A] Are there certain CFLAGS that should NEVER be used with gcc? 2] Am I actually going to run into any problems with the updated programs if I don't install gcc-3.3.2-r5? D] Why is gcc-3.3.2-r5 at the top of the list for 'emerge -u world' but 'emerge -u gcc' says it must update pam, pam-login, hashalot, util-linux, baselayout, and glibc first--all of which actually follow gcc in the list of packages to be updated by 'emerge -u world'? 4] Will I have to rebuild my packages or run revdep-rebuild after finally getting gcc-3.3.2-r5 to emerge one day? On another note, I think the Gentoo Devs are doing a damn spiffy job. I'd like to figure out how to run my car on Gentoo. Anyone care to maintain? Bob [Neuros] -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
