Hi, I tried to install games-strategy/asc-2.4.0.0 and it didnt went through. It was a configure error with /usr/bin/wx-config. May I have a suggestion! Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 0. Ebuild fails, because no wc config was selected. Easy workaround!! 1. /usr/bin/wx-config An error occurred while calling wx-config: No profile currently selected Please use `eselect wxwidgets` to select an available profile and try again. 2. emerge games-strategy/asc fails with checking whether we are using the GNU C++ compiler...

If you have a distribution supplied wxWidgets package installed, perhaps the wxWidgets-devel package is missing. The wxWidgets packages are sometimes also called wxGTK, if you can't find wxWidgets packages in your distribution, search for wxGTK If your distribution really does not contain the wxWidgets library, you can download it from www.wxwidgets.org If you have it installed, but it isn't working, check that wx-config is in path, the directory where wxWidgets libraries are installed (returned by 'wx-config --libs' or 'wx-config --static --libs' command) is in LD_LIBRARY_PATH or equivalent variable and wxWidgets version is 2.4.0 or above. !!!

Actually, with the 2.5.0 version, I was able to build even when wx-config reports an error. Reopen if you get the same error.
