Hi Rafael ! Thank you for your reply ! :) Are there any issues regarding Gcc-4.** ?? I am asking since my current system uses gcc-4.02. So I am interested whether there are pitfalls I haven't discovered until now, or whether Gcc-4.02 with the rest of Gentoo makes problems.... (Especially I am interested, whether curent Blender-CVS sources can be build with gcc 3.4* (and what version do you recommend?) Last question: Is there any "Emerge/Portage cookbook" or such on the web beside the manpages. I want to speed up my learning and I am learning best with examples.... Keep hacking! mcc > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA1 > > Meino Christian Cramer wrote: > > Hi, > > Hi > > > I """installed""" Gentoo 2005.1.r1 the first time on a hd. > > I used a stage 3 downloaded from teh internet. > > > > > > But I fear, I haven't understand a certain aspect of emerge > > not correctly. > > > > The problems arised as I tried to update the installed gcc-3.4.3 > > to gcc-4.02. > > Since you are a newbie I don't recommend you to install latest GCC > version.
