Fluxbox installed Actual results: 1. Merge failed Additional info: Toolchain should be entirely up-to-date and correct since it was built once with the old toolchain and then used to build a new version. This missing STL dependency is a total mystery to me but has been documented by other users in several threads on the forums: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-320462-highlight-rbtree.html http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-409929-highlight-rbtree.html http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-411515-highlight-rbtree.html
Okay... On the advice of someone on the forums, I removed the old libstdc++ files from /usr/lib and reattempted the merge. It worked this time. Must have been something to do with the gcc update not cleaning out all the old files.
