Hi sorry if you had this topic but i could not find any information about my problem so i have to start new one. I am a new comer in Gentoo and i have a problem with gnome installation on kernel-2.6.29-gentoo-r1. When I am trying to emerge gnome I got "econf failed" the system is not usable for me now as i can not do any thing. I also tried to reinstall kernel and used: gnome --update --newuse --deep world emerge --depclean revdep-rebuild but it was useless so i will be grateful if you will help me to handle this. thank you in advanced Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. setup Gentoo console and sync it 2. setup gnome (or any other package) 3. econf failed Actual Results: >>> Unpacking source... >>> Unpacking libglade-2.6.3.tar.bz2 to /var/tmp/portage/gnome-base/libglade-2.6.3/work * Fixing OMF Makefiles ... * Running elibtoolize in: libglade-2.6.3 * Applying portage-1.5.10.patch ... * Applying sed-1.5.6.patch ... >>> Source unpacked in /var/tmp/portage/gnome-base/libglade-2.6.3/work >>> Compiling source in /var/tmp/portage/gnome-base/libglade-2.6.3/work/libglade-2.6.3 ... * Applying Makefile.in.am-2.4.2-xmlcatalog.patch ... * Applying libglade-2.6.3-fix_tests-page_size.patch ... * econf: updating libglade-2.6.3/config.guess with /usr/share/gnuconfig/config.guess * econf: updating libglade-2.6.3/config.sub with /usr/share/gnuconfig/config.sub ./configure --prefix=/usr --host=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --datadir=/usr/share --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var/lib --disable-gtk-doc --libdir=/usr/lib64 --build=x86_64-pc-linux-gnu checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking whether build environment is sane... yes checking for a thread-safe mkdir -p... /bin/mkdir -p checking for gawk... gawk checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes checking for x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc... x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables See `config.log' for more details. !!!

check your gcc settings, gcc-config -l and make sure it corresponds to information in /etc/make.conf (CHOST and things like this)
(In reply to comment #1) > check your gcc settings, gcc-config -l and make sure it corresponds to > information in /etc/make.conf (CHOST and things like this) > gcc-4.1.2 was probably cleaned by emerge --depclean, so he should follow the general GCC upgrade guide. http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gcc-upgrading.xml Re-open if this does not fix it.
