When I try to emerge mpeg2vidcodec, or any application that depends on it, mpeg2vidcodec fails to compile. GCC complains that you cannot specify -o with -c or -S. I'd fix it, but I don't know enough about Gentoo yet. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge mpeg2vidcodec 2. 3.

Funny, this happened when i was ssh'd into the box. I went over to it later today and used Porthole to emerge mpeg2vidcodec and it went without error. What's the deal with building through ssh?
it has nothing to do with the fact that you we're logged in via ssh i would say: gcc: cannot specify -o with -c or -S and multiple compilations. feel free to reopen this one if you still have problems.
