When emerging gimp-print-cups 4.2.0-r1, it fails because it can't find libsupc++, which is located in /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.1 . All I had to do was make a link to it in /usr/lib and gimp-print-cups emerges fine, but this seems like a problem that should be fixed.
lostlogic -- howz about a gcc-3 issue for you?
hmm... want to know something really special? Works fine for me... what revision of gcc do you have merged? can you do a "locate libsupc++|grep usr" for me? On my system there is a libsupc++.la installed in /usr/lib which belongs to gcc-3.1-r6 and I believe is what links for gimp-print-cups...
I have the libsupc++.la too, but that isn't what gimp-print-cups wanted, for me at least. I'm using gcc3.1-r6
what libtool, glibc revisions you running?
found the problem, passing off to Azarah, because this is a gcc ebuild issue, should be fixed soon.
Brandon, can you please move all the .la files installed by gcc-3.1 to /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.1, and then see if it fixes the problem. I do this for multiple installs (check the ebuild, it have a "if build_multiple" for the .la files ... if it works, just bump the revision and comment that if. As I do not have a gcc-3.1 build system, it is a bit difficult for me to test, but it works with gcc-3.1 installed alongside 2.95.3. Thanks.
ok... I'll be testing that, I also took this oportunity to mangle the "libdir" in the .la files which is the fix that works on Carpaski's system... Jacob, can you test for me http://gentoo.lostlogicx.com/gcc-3.1-r7.ebuild and see if it fixes your problem? I'd test it myself but my system is busily emerge -eu world today :)
ok, I'll let you know how it goes
well, it emerged fine, anything specifically you want me to look for?
can you merge gimp-print-cups with with -r7 where you couldn't with -r6? (without that special symlink you made)
yes I can, worked fine
