[gentoo-dev] Where is my GCC?

[Thomas T. Veldhouse]

I upgraded my system via emerge -u world today.  I am running 1.4 stable.

Now ... GCC is gone?  Where did it go?!   I am not fond of these types of
stealthy changes.

Oh -- its there, but not as root -- it is in some obscure path
(/usr/i686-pc-linux-gnu/gcc-bin/3.2/gcc).  Why was it removed from its
traditional location of /usr/bin?

Have you logged out and logged back in since it was rebuilt?  I Had the
same thing this morning when gcc dissapeared from my path, and an
env-update didn't fix, but just logged out and logged back in and all
was well (*whew*)

Yes, but not as root.  With root you need to specifically specify the path
each time you invoke the compiler.

Did you login as root or did you su to root? I had the same problem when
I'd su to root. I copied /etc/profile to /etc/bashrc, and then bash was
able to find gcc.

The gcc stuff was changed around to allow a user to have multiple gcc
versions installed. Check out gcc-config; it allows you to quickly and
painlessly switch between gcc 2.95 and gcc 3.2 or whatever other
compilers you have installed.

Re: [gentoo-dev] Where is my GCC?

[Thomas T. Veldhouse]

su to root.

That would explain it I guess.  However, in the past, gcc was alway in the
path for a super user login, at /usr/bin.  I can live with this, but I find
it annoying that this sort of change is happening (which is rather major)
just before a release.  I didn't expect a change as major as this to occur
at this point.  I would not have likely upgraded [yet], as I assumed that
everything that changed was likely a bugfix.

The change came after the existance of 'gcc-config' program.
After running env-update, the ROOTPATH in /etc/profile is updated
to include /usr/i686-pc-linux-gnu/gcc-bin/3.2/gcc but the new
value is not activated yet.
This will done by doing a #source /etc/profile or by logout/login.

The env_update function in portage.py stipulates :
#parse /etc/env.d and generate /etc/profile.env

The env-update script does only a call to the function :
	import portage
	portage.env_update()

Better would be that the env-update script would re-read the /etc/profile.env
file. Bug ?

Like I said, it is not in the path for the root user.  Even after a
logout/login with env-update.

I found a problem here too, when updating my old system to the new gcc
colorgcc needs to be updated since it installs a gcc wrapper into
/usr/bin/wrappers/gcc, which in turn will break with gcc and gcc-config

solution: whack colorgcc... might bite users.
