Hi,
I have problems when emerging/building packages from source. I can't do any of these actions because I always get errors. For example, trying to emerge java:
Code:
checking for C compiler default output file name...
configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details.

!!! Please attach the following file when seeking support:

Do you think doing 'emerge -e' could solve? Thanks

Your build system looks pretty broken. Is your C compiler still working, it claims it's not... Did you unmerge something recently?

Try logging into the machine again using the window and see if it works through a sublogin if you haven't rebooted the machine yet. If you already rebooted then ignore this step and try again. If you haven't rebooted, don't reboot unless you have some other reason to.

If it still fails likely you'll need to use recovery methods, either getting a binary package of the compiler tools and use binpkg, or use a recovery boot disk and re-emerge them (a bit more tricky).

Before doing anything drastic, please follow the instructions in the output you posted.
Code:
configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details.
