The current pkg_setup is: pkg_setup() { if [[ "$(tc-getCC)" == *"gcc"* ]] ; then if [[ $(gcc-major-version) < 4 || ( $(gcc-major-version) == 4 && $(gcc-minor-version) < 5 ) ]] ; then die "You need to have at least >=sys-devel/gcc-4.5 to build and/or have a working vlc, see bug #426754." fi fi } However, this is a build related check and should be wrapped around "${MERGE_TYPE}" != "binary" for proper binpkgs support. On Sabayon, we don't ship with any gcc compiler by default.
