Hello, i have this problem: I have Gentoo instaled and all is OK. I just needed newer GCC, so i run: #ACCEPT_KEYWORDS=~x86 emerge gcc and i got gcc-3.4.4. OK, than i tried: #gcc-config i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.4.4 #source /etc/profile again all OK. No problem. Than i returned tu normal user mode and i got only errors. Not emerge could be run, Opera searched for missing library etc. Simply, many programs including #emerge was broken. I tried to switch to older gcc: #gcc-config i386-pc-linux-gnu-3.3.5 and i got: -------------------------------------------------------------------- * Switching to i386-pc-linux-gnu-3.3.5 compiler ... * env-update failed to work properly; making sure ld.so.conf paths * are setup properly. Please rerun gcc-config with the -f option. [ ok ] * If you intend to use the gcc from the new profile in an already * running shell, please remember to do: * # source /etc/profile -------------------------------------------------------------------- I tried everything, other GCC versions, but everytimes i got only this message. So i tried "-f", but again the same problem. Only thing, when i can emerge and run Opera and other programs broken, is to edit /etc/ ld.so.conf and add line: /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.5 and than run: #ldconfig I found this "help" on internet, but while working i still again get message about errors again, so i needed edit /etc/ld.so.conf again and again... What is wrong? I didn't touch anything, Gentoo is running 3months great and all started after gcc emerge. Thanks for possible solutions. Standa Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.edit /etc/ld.so.conf 2.run #ldconfig 3. Actual Results: all look working, but not older GCC and problems comes again time to time
what does `gcc-config -l` show ?

if you're going to change your CHOST from what the default stage shipped with you need to rebuild gcc and binutils

Thanks for your info, but what to do, to make Gentoo work again? I tried reemerge opera again, and after emerge and after each emerge and i try something i get: # etc-update /usr/bin/python: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory /usr/bin/python: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory /usr/bin/python: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Scanning Configuration files... Exiting: Nothing left to do; exiting. :) when i try to run newly emerged opera i get: $ opera /opt/opera/lib/opera/8.02-20050727.5/opera: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Again only way how to fix it is to edit ld.so.conf and add link for older GCC. Please, tell me exactly what to do, to make whole Gentoo working again. Let's i'll stay with newer GCC, it's enough to: 1. change CHOST in /etc/make.conf to i686 (now it's i386) 2. emerge gcc binutils Will this solve whole my problem and whole Gentoo will work again? Or do i need to get somehow (how?) back to gcc-3.3.5? I emerge GCC and i thought Gentoo knows which gcc (i386) to download and use, my mistake. Please help me, if needed add next steps how to change to i686 and newer GCC. Many thanks, Standa
switch to your 3.3.5 gcc (fix any of your libpaths are you already showed), re-emerge gcc-3.3.5 to get an i686 version, and then you should be set
