Zac, There are now about 5 different bug reports on this sort of thing all since yesterday. I don't understand how this happens on a new, stable system. I thought that was what ~x86 was for! OK, I'm not a guru here. Far from it. You're idea sounds reasonable but I don't know how to do it and the one attempt I tried didn't work. So it goes... One of the bug reports said to find the path to libstdc++.so.5, add it to/etc/ld.so.conf and then run ldconfig. I did that. However then it says to run gcc-config 1 which fails bitterly. After all that I'm still left with the same problems: localhost root # emerge sync /usr/bin/python: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory localhost root # QUESTION: Could I just go back to the LiveCD and reload all of the stage 3 files, etc., and somehow get back to where I was before I started the emerge system step? My thought is that if I just get the machine back to where it was then I can wait a few days to do this. Question is what's the simplest way to get there?
