[gentoo-user] emerge -uD world dies: "Unable to build"

[maxim wexler]

Hi group,

Would somebody look over the following and suggest a
fix?

I *did* try 'USE="build" but got same error, same
place.

"It is safe to remove the older GCC version at this
time. If you feel the need, please issue the following
command (as usual, substitute =sys-devel/gcc-3.4* with
the version you want to uninstall):"

gcc-4.1.2 was already emerged earlier but running gcc
--version reveals 3.4.6, so I ran 

#emerge -aC =sys-devel/gcc-3.4.6-r2

<...>
--- !empty   dir /etc/eselect

NEWVER)

And now I don't seem to have any sort of gcc:

localhost heathen # gcc --version
gcc-config error: Could not run/locate "gcc"

and emerge -uD world still fails at the same place.

gcc-config is set to use 3.4.6, which you have just removed. Run
gcc-config to fix this.

Done. But -uD world still barfs at the same place:

Are you sure that you have emerged (successfully) the latest stable gcc?

Retrace your steps and follow the guide on this one.  I'm sure that you can 
recover if you ended up with no gcc, but don't know off hand what it takes to 
do it.  (I am sure that the forums are full of suggestions for this problem).

If you are certain that you have had the correct gcc installed and gcc-config 
shows that it has been selected, and you have finished with the steps 
suggested in the guide above, then run revdep-rebuild -X -p -v once more for 
good measure before you try to emerge anything else.

HTH.

Easy. Grab any old gcc tarball from an install cd, use emerge to unpack 
this as a binpkg. This gives you a probably less than optimum but 
working gcc, which can be used to build the desired gcc. Then unmerge 
the unpacked one.

It wasn't gcc. See Volker's reply to "leapfrogging versions"

Hi group,


This gentoo user had a problem very similar to mine
but since the conversation is in Chinese I was unable
to determine the outcome. Maybe there's a clue in
there that will help me resolve my issue.

I don't know how relevant the post is to your problem. But the
solution that was found on the board is the following:

Noticing that the error says:

Errno architecture (x86_64-linux-2.6.16-gentoo-r7) does not match
executable architecture (x86_64-linux-2.6.20-gentoo-r9) at
/usr/lib64/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/Errno.pm line 11

The poster went and edited line 11 in the offending file so the kernel
version matches the one he is running currently. Whether this is the
right thing to do I cannot comment on.
