gcc-config fails to switch between gcc 3.3.2 and gcc 3.3.3. No matter which profile I select I always get the 3.3.2 gcc. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. gcc-config i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.3.3 2. env-update && source /etc/profile 3. gcc --version Actual Results: 1. * Switching to i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.3.3 compiler... [ok] 2. * Caching service dependencies... 3. gcc (GCC) 3.3.2 20031218 (Gentoo Linux 3.3.2-r5, propolice-3.3-7) Expected Results: Step 3. gcc --version should report version 3.3.3 nurtsi 3.3 # gcc-config -l [1] i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.3.2 [2] i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.3.3 nurtsi 3.3 # gcc-config i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.3.3 * Switching to i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.3.3 compiler...

I don't think it's designed to switch between minor versions like that.
I think azarah is the exclusive maintainer of gcc-config reassinging bug to him.
i was installing gentoo 2004.2 stage1 and bootstrap use gcc 3.3.3 but fails to compile!

gcc-3.3.3 and gcc-3.3.2 cannot be installed at the same time looks like you merged 3.3.2 over 3.3.3 and that's why gcc always reports 3.3.2
