Bug 40881 – GCC-3.3.2-r5 emerge fails with "cc1: unrecognized option `-auxbase'"

• Status: RESOLVED CANTFIX
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description b serviss 2004-02-08 14:02:08 UTC]

When I try to upgrade from Gcc-3-2-3-r3 to Gcc-3.3.2-r5, the emerge fails with the message: "cc1: unrecognized option `-auxbase' " and "cc1: output filename specified twice ".
A Google search on this problem shows a few hits which relate a distribution problem. But as these posts referred to a Mandrake install, I don't know if it's significant.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Emerge gcc
2.
3.
Actual Results:

Expected Results:  
correct upgrade of gcc

I've also tried to emerge gcc with:

with the same results.

I cannot say I have seen this before.  Only thing I do notice, is that you
have both glibc-2.3.2 and 2.2.5 installed?

[Comment 2 b serviss 2004-02-11 14:41:57 UTC]

Yes, I checked and both versions are installed. Should I remove the old version?

[Comment 3 b serviss 2004-02-11 18:49:18 UTC]

I removed the old version of glibc and still have the same emerge error.

[Comment 4 Martin Schlemmer (RETIRED) 2004-02-11 20:00:13 UTC]

Just make sure glibc-2.3.3-r9 is the last one installed ..

[Comment 5 Martin Schlemmer (RETIRED) 2004-02-12 09:43:53 UTC]

Can you try with automake-1.7.8?

[Comment 6 b serviss 2004-02-12 17:35:17 UTC]

I've tried Automake-1.7.8 with the same error result.
I have been running Gentoo for quite a while and with the exception of wxPython, this has been the only problem I haven't been able to solve through the forums. As a side note, I saw an "auxbase" problem like mine mentioned in the forums with no solution listed. I'm going to follow that up.

Do I need to re-install Gentoo?

[Comment 7 Martin Schlemmer (RETIRED) 2004-02-14 05:31:39 UTC]

Not sure to be honest.  I have never seen this before.  The only references
I can find, seems to be auto{make,conf} related.  What if you try -r7 of gcc?

[Comment 8 b serviss 2004-02-14 11:47:29 UTC]

I tried -r7 of gcc with no success. I also tried an experimental ebuild for gcc-3.4 with the same error. I tried to bootstrap with the stage1 tar which fails at "findinc".

As I'm the only one affected by this I'm going to try bootstraping one more time. Failing that,a complete reinstall from a livecd.

Please feel free to close this bug report as it is probably a waste of time.

Thanks for all your help,


Brian

this smells coincidental to #32763 but it is not quite the same error

[Comment 10 Caleb Tennis (RETIRED) 2004-09-03 11:58:14 UTC]

closing as a cantfix.
