I was about to emerge libstdc++-v3 in order to fix firefox-bin and thunderbird-bin, but seeing the emerge was 22MB I prefered to emerge source thunderbird ebuild until a working thunderbird-bin is created... It already does depend on virtual/libstdc++ (In reply to comment #1) > I was about to emerge libstdc++-v3 in order to fix firefox-bin and > thunderbird-bin, but seeing the emerge was 22MB I prefered to emerge source > thunderbird ebuild until a working thunderbird-bin is created... > We won't be creating anything, we download the binary tarball from upstream. And as said, the needed dependency is already there. If you unmerged sys-libs/libstdc++-v3 by mistake, then re-emerge it.

I thought -bin packages were created by gentoo crew instead of upstream... good to know... > And as said, the needed dependency is already there. If you unmerged > sys-libs/libstdc++-v3 by mistake, then re-emerge it. If the -bin binary is provided directly from upstream with that dependency then it's ok to require libstdc++-v3, but if gentoo were the ones to provide it it should be depended just on libstdc++ (glibc-2.4 aware). Anyway, as I said, I emerged plain ebuilds for firefox and thunderbird and are working ok without having to emerge that 22MB second libstdc++-v3. Thanks for your answers and explanations. |
