Hi,

I was quite surprised when I tried to emerge media-libs/tiff (3.8.2-r6)
today. I got the error messages

!!! One of the following packages is required to complete your request:
- sys-devel/gcc-4.4.0 (Change USE: +objc)
(dependency required by "media-libs/tiff-3.8.2-r6" [ebuild])
(dependency required by "media-libs/tiff" [argument])

Indeed, I have emerged gcc-4.4.0 without objc but

gcc-config -l  shows
 [1] i686-pc-linux-gnu-4.3.3 *
 [2] i686-pc-linux-gnu-4.4.0

and gcc -v shows Gentoo 4.3.3-r2 p1.1

So, why the requirement that the inactive gcc-4.4.0 should have
been emerged with objc?

(I'm using portage-2.2_rc33 and had only good experiences, so far)

Thanks for enlightening me,
Helmut.
