a botched gcc-upgrade/clean cycle damaged gcc beyond repair - but that was

Grant,
I've had a lot of problems lately upgrading ~arch and masked packages. This
is expected (obviously) but 99% of the time I am able to fix them myself
without going through support resources.
If you're using any that are ~arch and in packages.mask perhaps that is why
you're having problems t

My Gentoo systems get this way for one of two reasons:
Some config files get overwritten (make.conf was one time ) by accident
and a few packages get installed with the wrong build settings causing
random grief
system inconsistency, mainly with libraries. revdep-rebuild may or may
not help - if

No, it's changing package versions that breaks a working system, whether
this is a result of running emerge world or updating the guilty package
individually is irreleva

No one has ever suggested that you run emerge world without -p or -a.

No: of course, I 'emerge -1' when the pkg is not marked 'W/S' in my pkg.ref.
Currently, 'world' lists 97 pkgs ; pkg.ref lists 513 pkgs.
