on a P4-class machine, the compiler tries to use a /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.4/libstdc++.la file. that file does not exist in this architecture and compilation fails. a similar file can be found on /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.5 though. so I forced compilation, creating some symlinks: 1. cd /usr/lib/gcc-lib 2. ln -s i686-pc-linux-gnu i386-pc-linux-gnu 3. cd i386-pc-linux-gnu 4. ln -s 3.3.5 3.3.4 and issued "emerge enchant" again. compilation succeeded without further problems. however, this workaround looks conceptually wrong. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge enchant Actual Results: the compilation failed, with the following message: grep: /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.4/libstdc++.la: No such file or directory /bin/sed: can't read /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.4/libstdc++.la: No such file or directory libtool: link: `/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.4/libstdc++.la' is not a valid libtool archive make[2]: *** [libenchant_aspell.la] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/enchant-1.1.5/work/enchant-1.1.5/src/aspell' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/enchant-1.1.5/work/enchant-1.1.5/src' make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 Expected Results: the compilation, instalation and ebuild merging should succeed without further warnings.
