When emerging openoffice, emerge the ebuild breaks because of missing / not able to create libstdc++.so or libgcc_s.so with gcc 3.3.3. a badly but working solution was for me to copy the whole /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.3 directory into /var/tmp/portage/openoffice-1.1.1_rc1/work/oo_1.1.1_src/solver/645/unxlngi4.pro/lib i am not sure whats wrong but this helped me out. ohh, and in this ebuild there is an dependency for csh missing. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge openoffice-1.1.1-rc1 Actual Results: stops the emerge when trying to copy the so files Expected Results: finishing the emerge :-) Portage 2.0.50-r1 (default-x86-2004.0, gcc-3.3.3, glibc-2.3.3_pre20040207-r0, 2.6.4-gentoo-r1) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.4-gentoo-r1 i686 Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU 1.70GHz Gentoo Base System version 1.4.3.13p1 Autoconf: sys-devel/autoconf-2.59-r3 Automake: sys-devel/automake-1.8.2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86 ~x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-march=pentium4 -O2 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -falign-functions=4 -mmmx -msse -msse2 -mfpmath=sse,387 -ffast-math" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" COMPILER="gcc3" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.2/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/mozilla/defaults/pref /usr/share/config /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-march=pentium4 -O2 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -falign-functions=4 -mmmx -msse -msse2 -mfpmath=sse,387 -ffast-math" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs ccache sandbox" GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://ftp.easynet.nl/mirror/gentoo/ http://gentoo.inode.at/ ftp://gentoo.inode.at/source/ http://ftp.easynet.nl/mirror/gentoo/" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X X509 aalib alsa arts artswrappersuid avi berkdb cdr crypt cups directfb doc dvd encode foomaticdb gdbm gif gtk2 imlib java jpeg kde ldap libg++ libwww linguas_de mad mikmod mmx motif mozilla moznocompose moznoirc moznomail mozsvg mpeg ncurses nfs nls nptl oggvorbis opengl oss pam pdflib perl png ppds python qt quicktime readline samba scanner sdl slang spell sse ssl svga swf tcltk tcpd tiff truetype usb wmf x86 xml2 xmms xv zlib"
