Emerge'ing anything that doesn't use the libtool/toolchain-func eclass's works as expected (I've emerge a bunch of things like apache and postgresql) but trying to emerge jpeg-6b-r4 fails when linking because g++ is trying to look for libraries under 3.3.4 instead of 3.3.5. Here's the last little bit of the jpeg-6b emerge where it fails: g++ -shared -nostdlib /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.4/../../../crti.o /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.4/crtbeginS.o .libs/jcapimin.o .libs/jcapistd.o .libs/jctrans.o .libs/jcparam.o .libs/jdatadst.o .libs/jcinit.o .libs/jcmaster.o .libs/jcmarker.o .libs/jcmainct.o .libs/jcprepct.o .libs/jccoefct.o .libs/jccolor.o .libs/jcsample.o .libs/jchuff.o .libs/jcphuff.o .libs/jcdctmgr.o .libs/jfdctfst.o .libs/jfdctflt.o .libs/jfdctint.o .libs/jdapimin.o .libs/jdapistd.o .libs/jdtrans.o .libs/jdatasrc.o .libs/jdmaster.o .libs/jdinput.o .libs/jdmarker.o .libs/jdhuff.o .libs/jdphuff.o .libs/jdmainct.o .libs/jdcoefct.o .libs/jdpostct.o .libs/jddctmgr.o .libs/jidctfst.o .libs/jidctflt.o .libs/jidctint.o .libs/jidctred.o .libs/jdsample.o .libs/jdcolor.o .libs/jquant1.o .libs/jquant2.o .libs/jdmerge.o .libs/jcomapi.o .libs/jutils.o .libs/jerror.o .libs/jmemmgr.o .libs/jmemnobs.o -L/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.4 -L/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.4/../../../../i686-pc-linux-gnu/lib -L/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.4/../../.. -lstdc++ -lm -lc -lgcc_s /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.4/crtendS.o /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.4/../../../crtn.o -Wl,-soname -Wl,libjpeg.so.62 -o .libs/libjpeg.so.62.0.0 g++: /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.4/../../../crti.o: No such file or directory g++: /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.4/crtbeginS.o: No such file or directory g++: /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.4/crtendS.o: No such file or directory g++: /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.4/../../../crtn.o: No such file or directory If I run ebuild ./jpeg-6b-r4.ebuild unpack then cd to /var/tmp/portage/jpeg-6b-r4/work/jpeg-6b, run configure (as taken from the output when it was emerged) and then make with the CFLAGS & CXXFLAGS used it works fine. But since jpeg-6b uses the above eclasses when it builds it somehow gets /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.4 as a path for linking. To work around it replaced the following: emake \ CC="$(tc-getCC)" \ AR="$(tc-getAR) rc" \ AR2="$(tc-getRANLIB)" \ || die "make failed" With: emake || die "make failed" And the emerge worked.

re-emerge libtool *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 80424 ***
*** Bug 87105 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
The scheme to solve the problem (at least for me) has been described in http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=80424#c2 In my case it wasn't neccessary to touch /etc/env.d/05gcc since it was o.k. Reemerging libtool seems to be the key to solve the problem. However, in case doing this won't do the trick for you I need to tell you I did a little more than that: Before I was directed to this solution I did a brute force grep to find any hard coded "i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.4" on my system. So I already found and changed file /usr/X11R6/bin/libtool (well this was the only relevant file grep found so far, but grep didn't finish yet). In this file I changed 4 to 5 'i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.4' to 'i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.5'. However, I'm not sure if this makes any difference since I reemerged libtool later. Just wanted to let anybody know in case reemerging libtool alone and checking the /etc/env.d/05gcc file don't help to solve the problem for you.
