• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

[Description Martin Holzer (RETIRED) 2003-02-17 15:40:05 UTC]

first, there's no virtual/gcc

  RDEPEND.bad          1
   net-www/webcpp/webcpp-0.8.0.ebuild: ['virtual/gcc']

secound it fails for me, any ideas ?

i always do the virtual/gcc thing, oh well

as for the compile failure, it only happens on gcc-2.x ... use gcc-3.x ;)

i e-mailed the authors about it already

and i just never RTFM-ed ;) 
 
from the README: 
Webcpp 0.7.0 and up now requires gcc 3.0 or later to compile.
