In case anyone was curious what happened, I finally solved the problem. The
short version is that people see what they expect to see. I saw the date
listed as the correct time, month, and day, but the year was wrong. After
figuring out how to set the date, all further emerge commands have run
I am trying to get through my first install of Gentoo. It has gone very
roughly. I still do not have email from that computer and hence, cannot
cut-and-paste the exact error I am having, but, here goes...
History---
I downloaded and followed the instructions for a Gentoo install from the
gentoo
I didn't set any CFLAGS on purpose. If some are set by default in make.conf
or added as a result of the install instructions, that is what I would have
picked up, of course I will double check that though.
