I was attempting to clean out packages left behind from gtk. I thought that gmp was gimp. Don't ask... I know. As I now know what gmp is and that it is required by GCC, nothing on my system will compile. Please bare with me, this is the first time I have submitted a bug report. I have attempted to include all information that will be of use. I would like to know how to get gmp reinstalled or how to get a compiler that doesn't require it so that I can reemerge it. Steps to Reproduce: emerge --unmerge gmp Actual results: gmp was unmerged. Expected results: gmp is aparently a vital piece to my system. It should not have been so easily removed or should have warned about the results.

You can download a binary package of gmp from here, http://tinderbox.x86.dev.gentoo.org/default-linux/amd64/dev-libs/gmp-4.3.1.tbz2
Please use --depclean instead of -C next time. Closing as invalid, since it's not a gentoo bug. Feel free to ask if you need assistance with the binary package.

For my future reference, how did you find the binary? I could only find the source. Will I be required to remove these files that were extracted from the gmp-4.3.1.tbz2 file when i reemerge the gmp package?

Thank you both for your assistance. The gentoo community really is as great as everybody says it is.
http://tinderbox.x86.dev.gentoo.org is a gentoo server. You weren't supposed to unpack the tbz2. Portage supports binary packages. Put the tbz2 into $PKGDIR/dev-libs (PKGDIR is /usr/portage/packages by default) and run "emerge -1k =gmp-4.3.1". You should still do this, since portage still thinks that gmp is not installed. After that, you're done.
