That guide is specifically for GCC, _not_ glibc. Anyway, seems that glibc has had this functionality for quite some time... That's why you should always run emerge -pvt [package] before updating. :) It is a gcc guide only, but following the instructions (emerge -uav gcc specifically) causes glibc to be installed, and to fail. Anything which the instructions cause to fail should be described in the guide. Also, since there is this gcc/glibc changeover, the glibc use flags should be mentioned somewhere that everyone is pointed to. The only place for that, currently, is the gcc upgrade guide. |
