FYI, after the "sh*t I'm really screwed now" phase, I did $ gcc-config -l [1] powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu-3.3.3 [2] powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu-3.4.2 gcc-config powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu-3.3.3 and thank $DIETY I have a working compiler again. Scary, breaking the compiler on a build from source distro.
finally after switching to gcc 3.3.3 i started to merge back to gcc 3.4.1-r2 and that is still merging.... i just wanted to let you know, that you can't use 3.4.2-r1 now with my config..
why you still have /lib/libgcc_s.so ? qpkg -f /lib/libgcc_s.so please
after switching to gcc 3.3.3 and merging gcc 3.4.1-r2, i don't have /lib/libgcc_s.so sorry :)
can you do me a favor and find /lib /usr/lib | grep libgcc ?

Same problem here... it happens even when gcc tries to build libgcj but ONLY on ppc... the only references for __quoss etc are in the gcc/config/rs6000 directory works on x86 and amd64 as they are obviously don't use this directory ;)
Release of gcc 3.4.1-e1 resolves the problem. Thanks Colin
after switching back to gcc 3.4.1-r2, i had difficulties in merging evas-1.0.0.20040912_pre1, which required still 3.4.2-libs, which are not present after switching back to 3.4.1-r2 gcc points on 3.4.1-r2, instead of 3.4.2-r1. --- /bin/sh ../../../../libtool --mode=link gcc -O2 -pipe -mcpu=7400 -maltivec -mabi=altivec -fno-strict-aliasing -o libevas_engine_directfb.la evas_engine_dfb.lo evas_engine_dfb_image_objects.lo -ldirectfb -lpthread -ldl grep: /usr/lib/gcc/powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu/3.4.2/libstdc++.la: No such file or directory /bin/sed: can't read /usr/lib/gcc/powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu/3.4.2/libstdc++.la: No such file or directory libtool: link: `/usr/lib/gcc/powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu/3.4.2/libstdc++.la' is not a valid libtool archive make[5]: *** [libevas_engine_directfb.la] Error 1 --- please put this into a new bug, if its wrong here... (and put me on the tracking-list)
please make sure you have a gcc-3.4.1 and JUST it. the 3.4.2 should be completely removed
according to portage, i have the following two gcc-versions installed: --- >>> These are the packages that I would unmerge: sys-devel/gcc selected: 3.4.1-r2 3.3.3_pre20040426 protected: none omitted: none --- so, no gcc 3.4.2 is in there anymore... perhaps ld.so is not properly cleaned up... oh, i see, /etc/env.d/05gcc does contain the path of a 3.4.2-lib in it.. i will now remove that path manually. i hope that did it.
make sure you run fix_libtool_files.sh 3.4.2 and yes... until i can fix a few of the larger bugs, 3.4.2 is package masked. but nobody is giving me any feedback on proposed libgcc changes so... *shrug*
*grml* how do i tell this damn libtool to use the fresh /etc/ld.so.cache? its still complaining that the 3.4.2-directory doesn't exist (which is true, but it should not use that gcc-version...) things which didn't work out: trying to get the path out of /etc/env.d/05gcc trying to erase /etc/ld.so.cache trying to re source /etc/profile and merging again any suggestions what i have to try now?
ok, i would like to help you, but you have deleted the whole keyword to ppc according to packages.gentoo.org so i won't be able to switch to 3.4.2-r2 back again... thx for the tip of trying fix_libtool_files.sh 3.4.2 ... that worked... i am willing to help you, but i think i can't if i havent the keyword for ppc back again :)
Please cc ppc again when anything needs testing
Dumb question time: I'm having this issue on a x86 PC should I file a seperate report?
should be ok with latest gcc
