Re: [gentoo-user] unable to emerge anything...
Hello Richard,

Thanks for the input.
I tried it on both of my Gentoo boxes. One worked and the problematic one
gave me the following output;
# gcc test.c -o test
gcc: installation problem, cannot exec `as': No such file or directory
this is because your binutils don't work. If your second machine has the same
architecture try to quickpkg your binutils on this machine and install it on
your problem box.
Gerald
I'm going to try quickpkg again but this time from the working box. The
first pkg came from an older livecd.
If you think of anything please let me know. Thanks again.

I've got python back using quickpkg like you suggested. Now I'm working on
getting gcc to work. I did a quickpkg on gcc but emerge still fails with a
'C compiler cannot create executables' error.
I'm pretty sure I'm using a working version.
It may not be the C compiler at all. To check this copy the following code
into a file called test.c:
#include stdio.h
int main(void)
{
printf(Hello World!\n);
return 0;
}
And then run the following commands:
gcc test.c -o test
./test
If you see a Hello World! output, then your C compiler is working fine. If
this is the case, then you need to do as the original error message
specifies - check the config.log file. It should be located at
/var/tmp/portage/dev-lang/php- 5.2.5-r1/work/php-5.2.5/config.log
config.log files can be a little confusing to read through if you're not
used to them, but you'll just want to start at the bottom and work your way
up, until you find any error messages - or, you can post your config.log
file, and someone can help you out with it.

Alan,
Thanks for that. It's funny you should mention python, I just
inadvertently unmerged it (doh...). I've got another gentoo box
running a newer version of gcc and a newer kernel. Do you think I can
get what I need out of it?
Yes, you should be able to use that. Python is SLOTted, so even if your
other box is using a different SLOT, you can emerge the version you
need, quickpkg it, copy it over to the first machine and unpack it
there.
quickpkg's are just tarballs so you can even use good old tar and
bunzip2 if you managed to go to the next step of dohness and unmerge
portage as well :-)
btw, how did you manage to unmerge python? That's in system and portage
usually goes to great lengths to prevent you doing just that

I've tried upgrading gcc by emerging but get the same error
(catch-22 situation). Here's the last part of the error log which
is the same with anything I try to emerge.
A quickpkg of gcc might help you out of this, it's about 7M or so so
small enough to mail to you. Perhaps some kind soul here with similar
settings to you can send their tbz2 of gcc-3.3.6.x
Alternatively, you might be able to unpack a working gcc tarball from
a
stage 3 onto your system and use that
It doesn't help you right now, but I've managed to screw up enough
gentoo systems enough times that I now keep quickpkg copies of known
good working critical packages in $PKGDIR - minimally gcc, glibc,
python, portage, tar and a shell

[gentoo-user] Re: unable to emerge anything...
Alan, I'll check the links out. As for as unmerging anything else no. Not yet anyway, give me time though. Richard, I recently had that same problem and I notice you are also using the hardened profile. I don't remember exactly what I did but it involved re-compiling gcc and making sure the `harened' use flag was cancelled (USE='-hardened') I think I did something like boot from the minimal install iso and use the compiler on it to chroot and compile a gcc without the hardened flag. I don't remember now for sure... how I did it, but I am pretty sure your gcc needs to be recompiled without the `hardened' flag. -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list

Generally you can just emerge -uND world and we done with it. But life isn't always so simple. I can think of a few updates in the last while that were problematic, but I think they were all more than a year ago: Xorg 6.x - 7.x - there's wiki pages for that at gentoo-wiki.com gcc-3.3.x - 3.4.x - check gentoo.org/docs for the full info glibc-2.3 - 2.4 - there was something about that too, I forget... The update to python-2.5 had a specific procedure (?) And there was a portage update as well with a change in on-disk format. This one caught me, as an upgrade path was maintained for several versions, then dropped. My upgrade fell in that window. But that was way back in the early 2.0 versions, I think you will be safe. Oddly, kde-3.5.7 to 3.5.8 recently was a pain for me. I hadn't updated in two months and the first emerge world failed about 8 times, all on kde stuff. It felt as if the DEPENDS were evaluated in the wrong order as emerge --resume --skipfirst allowed it to continue. Then I would emerge world again with less failures, and do it again. IIRC it took 4 runs thorough, but once it was done everything did seem to work correctly. With long intervals between updates like you have here, I prefer to make a quickpkg of vital system stuff (gcc, glibc, python, portage, bash) as a safety measure, then run emerge -pvuND system and update those vital packages manually - the reason is to force me to look at the portage output and not miss important messages. Then emerge the rest of system followed by the rest of world.

Router1 needs a route to point back to PC2 so when traffic bound for it comes it, it'll know what to do with it. route add -net 192.168.2.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 192.168.1.23 Also if you want PC2 to access the net, you would need PC1 to be smart enough to route/NAT packets from PC2 to Router 1.

Re: [gentoo-user] expat update (was:Update After a Year)

Sorry if hijacking the thread, but: it's a long time I have expat-1.9.6 and, even if 2.0.1 is in portage, emerge -av world doesn't tell me to upgrade (I guess emerge -Dav would, but why should I?). Should I do nonetheless, or can I wait? I find emerge -uND world every so often is a good idea, as updates are then incremental and I can deal with problems one at a time instead of lots all at once. I don't know of any good reason why you *should* upgrade to expat-2.0.1 right now, other than simply staying up to date. Be prepared to become good friends with revdep-rebuild when you *do* do it, the upgrade caused huge numbers of broken linkages to libexpat.so.0 alan -- Alan McKinnon alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
