• Status: CONFIRMED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

Issue: dev-python/mysql-connector-python-8.0.27 calls cc directly.
Discovered on: amd64 (internal ref: ci)

NOTE:
This machine uses GCC-11: https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-11/porting_to.html
As per QA policy, toolchain tools must not be called directly because they can cause issue in cross-compiling and because is not possible use a different CC implementation (like clang). To reproduce, please use sys-devel/gcc-config[-native-symlinks], sys-devel/binutils-config[-native-symlinks].

Error(s) that match a know pattern:


error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'gcc'
fatal: not a git repository (or any parent up to mount point /var/tmp)
error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'gcc'

I am not sure what to do here. This is a false positive. The package doesn't compile anything. It is a pure python package. However, yes, it is calling gcc to display something?
