Description Jonas Bofjäll 2005-06-14 07:15:26 UTC

After emerging binutils-2.16.1 (~x86), the symlinks  
in /usr/i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin still points to the old, nonexistent binutils  
directory under /usr/i686-pc-linux-gnu/binutils-bin.  
  
This of course causes binutils to fall outside $PATH since this is one of the  
symlink steps from /usr/bin. I had to manually correct the links in order to  
use as(,gcc,emerge). 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. USE=~x86 emerge -uO binutils  
2. watch emerge break :)
