Created attachment 37743 [details, diff] fixes the rdepend in uclibc
Thank you for reporting this one. 0.9.26-r{1,2,3,4,5} have been updated. Just a tip/note.. You will get better results for embedded envionments with a portage-2.0.51-preX revision vs the .50 stuff. My guess from looking at your CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" is your not exactly using an embedded-uclibc env.
thanks for the tip on portage. in the next weeks you'll see better CHOSTs :-) via C3, geode old pentiums and ...my zaurus :)
bad solar, you cant do that gcc installs libgcc_s.so which as you may remember, is *quite* critical to a healthy embedded system
but ...correct me if I'm wrong ...I can't see a uclibc file linked with libgcc_s.so
bad solar.. Ok he is right. we need libgcc_s for some arches.. Lets start a list here? ARCH = arm (needs libgcc_s) ARCH = x86 ( can be "" ) OTHERS ?
Is there a way to install only the need files of the gcc package? ...and is there a way to prevend header installs (/usr/include/* etc) ?
ia64 needs it sometimes perhaps we should break out the shared libraries like libstdc++ ?
Re: comment #7 Perhaps of some use to you. http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=gentoo-embedded&m=109087569529731&w=2 Re: comment #8 Thats the ideal solution. But how to make gcc behave as a metapkg?
The original issue has been fixed. Making gcc behave as a metapkg is an entirely different issue that we could address at some point, but I don't think there is any interest currently since this bug has not been untouched for some time.
