Bug 595918 – net-misc/networkmanager-1.4.0-r1 fails to build with error "gcc-config: No gcc profile is active!"

• Status: RESOLVED INVALID
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Porcupine of the Moon 2016-10-02 10:43:33 UTC]

net-misc/networkmanager-1.4.0-r1 fails to build with error message:

gcc-config: No gcc profile is active!
/usr/bin/gcc-config: line 72: /etc/env.d/gcc/config-i686-pc-linux-gnu: No such file or directory
gcc-config: error: could not run/locate 'i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc-ar'

However, my system is CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu".

gcc-config -l
 [1] x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-4.9.3 *

binutils -l 
 [1] x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-2.25.1 *

I used to have a crossdev installation for "i686-pc-linux-gnu", but I removed it completely. There shouldn't be any remains on the system.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
emerge -vuND world

Actual Results:  
build fails

Expected Results:  
build should run through without errors

Does /use/bin/i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc-ar exist? If so, remove it.

Thank you for this hint. For some reason this was an orphaned file on my system. equery b couldn't assign it to any package. After deleting all /usr/bin/i686-* it compiled without errors.
