Description Frank Hellmuth 2004-12-30 08:38:44 UTC

Looking in my /usr/bin I found the following binaries:

/usr/bin/i686-pc-linux-gnu-timidity
/usr/bin/i686-pc-linux-gnu-transcode

Re-merging the packages results in the same binaries with the arch-prefix. The ebuilds of these applications sets the --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu flag, which makes configure think that it should create Makefiles for cross compiling for another platform, resulting in the strangely named binaries.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge timidity++
2. ls /usr/bin/i686-pc-linux-gnu-* 
3.

Actual Results:  
The installed binaries have a arch prefix, the startup scripts doesn't work  
anymore, if you don't know about the prefix it looks like the app isn't 
installed at all 

Expected Results:  
Binries should be installed  without the prefix

you have an outdated gcc-config

update it, re-run gcc-config, then remove 'CTARGET' from your env
