I tryed today to update my computer and run on seripus problem with gcc. When I tried to compile anything I have the following message when trying to update bin utils : checking whether the C compiler (gcc -march=k8 -O2 -pipe ) works... no configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C compiler cannot create executables. when i tried to build ncurses : checking build system type... Invalid configuration `x86_64-unknown-linux-glibc': machine `x86_64-unknown-linux' not recognized configure: error: /bin/sh /var/tmp/portage/ncurses-5.4.20050319/work/ncurses-5.4/config.sub x86_64-unknown-linux-glibc failed. So i thought that something was wrong with my glibc so i tried to rebuild it didn' worked out : checking for suffix of object files... configure: error: cannot compute f object files: cannot compile So i don't know if it's my conf or a bug any help would be greatly appreciate.

From the second log file, it looks like you lost your symlinks in /usr/bin for, at least, as. I have this: addr2line -> x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-addr2line ar -> x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-ar as -> x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-as c++filt -> x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-c++filt gprof -> x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gprof ld -> x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-ld nm -> x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-nm objcopy -> x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-objcopy objdump -> x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-objdump ranlib -> x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-ranlib readelf -> x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-readelf size -> x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-size strings -> x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-strings strip -> x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-strip
Right the symlinks are gone ... don't know how it happen. i have tryied to recreate and it seems to work out. I'll try dig a little more and report back ...
Ok the fie correct most of the bugs but I still have issue with gcc when trying to compile it with multilib support I get the following error : /usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/3.4.3/../../../libc.so when searching for -lc /usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/3.4.3/../../../libc.a when searching for -lc /usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libc.so when searching for -lc /usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libc.a when searching for -lc /usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: cannot find -lc It seems ld ignore my libc ... i don't know why ...
If anyone has the same problem than the answer is here http://www.mail-archive.com/gentoo-amd64@gentoo.org/msg01253.html quoting : " I had that same problem. I had to re-emerge emulx-linux-x86-glibc under the 2004.3 profile, then re-emerge glibc and gcc.. then I started the upgrade tutorial. Granted I never figured out the exact reason for my problem, that seemed to fix it. "
Ok nothing more to say about it ... =)
