Having installed ifc-9.0.031 on amd64, using ifort gives the following messages: $ ifort helloworld.f /opt/intel/fortran90/bin/fortcom: /usr/lib/gcc-lib/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.5/32/libstdc++.so.5: no version information available (required by /opt/intel/fortran90/bin/fortcom) /opt/intel/fortran90/bin/fortcom: /usr/lib/gcc-lib/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.5/32/libstdc++.so.5: no version information available (required by /opt/intel/fortran90/bin/fortcom) The compiled program runs fine without problems. It is just that these warnings make it difficult to intercept warnings. This is confusing, because it looks like fortcom found the correct libstdc++.so.5 library. The correct one however is in emul-linux-x86-compat. Then the problem was that fortcom still wanted to use the libstdc++.so.5 of gcc-3.3.5, but after unmerging (I did not need gcc-3.3.5 anyway) the correct library is found in the x86-compat lib dir.
*** Bug 156030 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
If there is a genuine dependency on libstdc++-v5 the ebuild should depend on it, no matter whether we're on amd64 or not.
Fixed in ifc versions in the tree.
