I updated to this version of Glibc 181027 & emerged other pkgs successfully. I don't use the 'multiarch' USE flag. > Should I report this as a bug or is there's something wrong with me ? I'm sure there's nothing wrong with you (smile), but there mb a USE flag or similar which needs changing. NB above : the error you cite is '4' : this shows there are other errors '1' '2' '3' above, which are more important. It would help if you find them & report them to the list. No doubt others will offer more detailed advice. -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Cities Centre, University of Toronto TRANSIT `-O----------O---' purslowatchassdotutorontodotca
