Portage wants me to merge gcc 3?!

Im trying to do the following in portage:

Linux portage # emerge --pretend kdenetwork mplayer mplayerplug-in
--- Invalid atom in /etc/portage/package.mask: sys-devel/gcc-3.3.6-r1

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

As you can see, the bastard wants to have me merge gcc 3, when im clearly using gcc 4 already. Is there anyway I can merge everything BUT gcc 3?

emerge 'libstdc++-v3' first

you might want to see which ebuild wants you to do so...

try emerge --tree ....

You didn't mask it the right way. Try this instead.

Yes, there is something you can do - see post #2 in this thread. Emerge libstdc++-v3

desultory · Post by **desultory** » Wed Sep 19, 2007 6:51 am

This is due to the behavior described in bug 161953 "[bug=161953]|| ( x y ) prefers y if any version of y and no version of x is installed[/bug]". This problem is somewhat exacerbated by the fact that the 3.3 series versions of sys-devel/gcc do not support -march=pentium-m, and so fail to compile on systems using that configuration.

Fixed a typo. -- desultory

WakkaDojo · Post by **WakkaDojo** » Tue Oct 02, 2007 5:02 am

Good call on the not-supporting-pentium-m. I was trying to emerge firefox and it requested I emerge gcc-3.3.6. i thought that it couldn't be right because I had gcc-4.1.1 installed. Then I recalled that the -march=pentium-m option wasn't added until later versions of gcc, thus being consistent with your comment. Good call on just emerging libstdc++!

I am trying to run emerge xorg-x11. As suggested, I ran emerge libstdc++-v3 which stopped the installer from trying to emerge gcc. However, it has now stopped with :

Solved. I just did "emerge perl" and then tried it again. It worked first time.

vvi · Post by **vvi** » Sat Dec 01, 2007 1:36 am

I have the same problem. I tried to emerge libstdc++ and it also wants to install GCC3. I did "emerge perl" - nothing changed.
Here is what I have:

Code: Select all

klava vvi # emerge --tree mplayer -pv

These are the packages that would be merged, in reverse order:

You must install sys-libs/libstdc++-v3 first. The tree shows that gcc-3 will fulfill virtual/libstdc++-v3.

Thanks, it works!

cshobe · Post by **cshobe** » Sat Dec 08, 2007 8:32 am

This seems wrong. I ran into the issue the same way, by simply trying to install firefox and konqueror with the java USE flag. jdk 1.6 (why does it need jdk anyways, jre works fine by itself on amd64) seems to want libstdc++ (again, not required on amd64).

Also, the virtual/libstdc++ package wants to pull in the full gcc-3.3.6:

# emerge -va virtual/libstdc++

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

[ebuild NS ] sys-devel/gcc-3.3.6-r1 USE="nls (-altivec) -bootstrap -boundschecking -build -doc -fortran -gcj -gtk (-hardened) -ip28 -ip32r10k (-multilib) -multislot (-n32) (-n64) -nocxx -nopie -nossp -objc -test -vanilla" 0 kB
[ebuild N ] virtual/libstdc++-3.3 0 kB

It is for everything else, but this special case right. desultory pointed you to the bug, which discusses the issue, so read it please.

There's a sys-libs/libstdc++-v3 and virtual/libstdc++, and what happens when you emerge them is quite different.
You should run 'emerge -av libstdc++-v3', otherwise libstdc++ will try to emerge gcc 3.3.6

someguy42 · Post by **someguy42** » Sun Dec 16, 2007 5:38 am

The extremely lovely bit is that this seems to happen when emerging xorg-x11 immediately after having performed a new install...

Carlo · Post by **Carlo** » Sun Dec 16, 2007 1:33 pm

@someguy42: Not quite. Only binary packages depend on virtual/libstdc++-3.3. Point is xorg-server optionally depends on x11-drivers/ati-drivers, which in turn....

The easiest way to get rid of the problem is to do the following:

echo "<sys-devel/gcc-4" >> /etc/portage/package.mask
