Description Thomas Witzel 2004-05-17 06:34:33 UTC

All versions of gcc >= 3.3.3 do not compile g77, regardless of setting f77 in IUSE. This may be related to 34168.

Comment 1 Thomas Witzel 2004-05-17 09:32:58 UTC

Okay, here is an update. I manually edited the ebuild file for gcc-3.4.0-r2
so that it states in line 470:

gcc_lang="c,c++,f77"

The following build created g77 and libg2c, but gcc-config does not switch them over. I know my change is a hard hack, but I haven't been able to figure out why it ignores the f77 setting in the IUSE variable.
I believe there is also a bug posted related to gcc-config not switching the
g77.

Comment 2 Thomas Witzel 2004-05-17 09:50:39 UTC

Okay, one more comment:

it seems like that the use command in the ebuild script ignores whatever was set to be IUSE.
