[gentoo-user] GCC 4.1.1 missing g++/c++

[gentoo-user] GCC 4.1.1 missing g++/c++

[Richard Broersma Jr]

Certain packages are failing to build because they make use of a C++ compiler.  Is there a way to
ensure that this and other compilers of enterest are included with GCC?

The affect packages are:

ncurces, groff, sys-libs/db, python

All fail with the same error

Once again thanks for all of the help.

Regards,

Richard Broersma Jr

Unless you are crazy enough to have USE=nocxx, you get a c++ compiler
with gcc.  Others are controlled by USE flags.

gcj - java compiler
fortran - fortran compiler
...and so on.

What error?

I don't believe that I included the USE=nocxx variable.  I will give another try at re-building
GCC a little later just to see if I get the same effect. (Honestly, I did add a few additional Use
Flags before I emerge gcc. gdj and fortran were some of them.  I went through and pruned a few of
them when I first started having problems with some of packages failing to emerge.)

These various errors sound very similar.  Here is an error I've transposed from the last package
in the emerge --resume --skipfirst.

../../build-aux/depcomp:line 512: execg++ not found
make[4]: *** [calc++-scanner.o] Error 127

Other packages will give up during the sanity check when they discovered there wasn't a g++
compiler for available.

Thanks for the reply.

Ok.  Don't forget to use "eselect compiler" (or gcc-config) to select
the 4.1.1 compiler after you have merged it if you want to use it.

You can simply check with "emerge -pv gcc".

Bye...

Yes, I must have included the nocxx in my use variable since a re-build of GCC included the g++
compiler.  From this point forward all packages using C++ would build with out errors.

However,  the package  media-libs/netpbm-10.34  is failing with the following error:

flex -t thinkjettopbm.l >thinkjettopbm.c1
NONE:0: /usr/bin/m4: ERROR: EOF in argument list

!!! (no error message)
!!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call stack if relevant.

Thanks for the help.
