Been seeing this for a while, but can't find any bug reports on it so may be just something borked on my system. Not sure what to do or how to proceed however. When trying to emerge nfs-utils-1.2.1 the build fails because rpcgen cannot find cpp. I have cpp in /usr/bin. There is an option (-Y) to rpcgen to give it the path to cpp. Here is the (snipped) output from the failed build: Making all in export make[2]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/net-fs/nfs-utils-1.2.1/work/nfs-utils-1.2.1/support/export' test -f mount_clnt.c && rm -rf mount_clnt.c || true test -f mount_xdr.c && rm -rf mount_xdr.c || true /usr/bin/rpcgen -l -o mount_clnt.c mount.x /usr/bin/rpcgen -c -o mount_xdr.c mount.x test -f mount.h && rm -rf mount.h || true cannot find any C preprocessor (cpp) /usr/bin/rpcgen: C preprocessor failed with exit code 1 make[2]: *** [mount_clnt.c] Error 1 make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... cannot find any C preprocessor (cpp) /usr/bin/rpcgen: C preprocessor failed with exit code 1 make[2]: *** [mount_xdr.c] Error 1 /usr/bin/rpcgen -h -o mount.h mount.x cannot find any C preprocessor (cpp) /usr/bin/rpcgen: C preprocessor failed with exit code 1 make[2]: *** [mount.h] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/net-fs/nfs-utils-1.2.1/work/nfs-utils-1.2.1/support/export' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/net-fs/nfs-utils-1.2.1/work/nfs-utils-1.2.1/support' make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 * ERROR: net-fs/nfs-utils-1.2.1 failed: * emake failed * * Call stack: * ebuild.sh, line 54: Called src_compile * environment, line 2721: Called _eapi2_src_compile * ebuild.sh, line 646: Called die * The specific snippet of code: * emake || die "emake failed" Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.emerge nfs-utils 2. 3.

run `gcc-config -f` to re-select your current profile
gcc-config -f fixed it. Thanks.
