libstdc++ problems

I have installed gentoo yesterday and everything has gone smoothly until now. When I try and emerge some packages such as xine and mplayer gcc returns this error:

emerge sys-libs/libstdc++-v3 ??

ok Android, no idea about the i386 path.
what is gcc -v telling you where it does pick up
its specs and so on?
if you cant find a fix it might be a good idea to rebuild
gcc, anyway

curioser and curioser...gcc-config -l ?
regarding a different gcc version, I have
upgrade my private systems to 3.4.3 and
I'd say it's worth it.

Thanks for your advice. I going to upgrade reboot and see what happens.

Edit:
This is the output of gcc-config -l:

I am still having problems with this, it's stopping me from intalling quite a few packages.

This is what i get with some emerges after upgrading from gcc-3.3.4-r1 to gcc-3.3.5-r1.

im seeing the exact same thing. withing the past 24 hours emerge -uD world brought my gcc version up to 3.3.5 but various emerges are failing because they're looking in the 3.3.4 directories.

there are still some references to the previous versions---
in my etc directory:

I had a similar problem after upgrading to gcc 3.3.5. Try running fix_libtool_files.sh to correct it. fix_libtool_files.sh with no arguments will show you usage. In my case, I ran:

There's always a script you have never heard of.

Worked for me - thanks jourbans!

It didn't fix my issue.

emerge nasm:

groff: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.6: cannot open sharedobject file: No such file or directory

Same issue in several other programs.

There the library is in the i686-pc-linux-gnu directory, but not in the lib directories. I've executed gcc-config of course...

Hrmm, you've definitely got something screwy going on there. Maybe switch back to 3.3.4, unemerge 3.3.5 and see if you can get an emerge to work (basically getting to where you were before you had problems. Then reemerge 3.3.5 and hope for the best.

Of course, I'd definitely resync with the portage tree before all of this (then maybe just rebuild 3.3.5). Could be you caught a bug that was fixed without a version bump.

suid77 · Posted: Tue Jan 11, 2005 11:52 pm Post subject:

got it working now. Thanks jourbans!

source /etc/profile
fix_libtool_files.sh 3.3.4

fix_libtool_files.sh didn't see any problems until I re-sourced /etc/profile. Now it seems fine.

Worked for me too, thanks!

source /etc/profile
fix_libtool_files.sh 3.3.4

This fixed my problem too! The answer is always somewhere in this forum!

May be somebody, who knows English better then me writes a bug on it?

This seems to be common error after upgrade.

Maybe an admin can make this a sticky? Yeah, i've never heard of this before, and have been using gentoo for quite a while (2+ yrs). Has the format of the libs changed in the new versions of glibc and libstdc++? I know they go through a revision every once in a while. Did I miss a Gentoo Newsletter? Maybe this should go in the next one. I know i probably missed tons of stuff that scrolled by after I emerge gcc-3.3.5-r1.

At least with gentoo you can learn why your system is screwy. Thanks posters!

hi,

i ran the fix_libtool_files.sh script and it really did bad things to my kde (3.3.2) installation.
actually it cannot find a single .la file, konsole is about the only program i can run without getting an error (from inside gnome, as kde refuses to start)!

mobtek · n00b Joined: 20 Aug 2004 Posts: 42

Did you fix the problem with kde-3.3.2?
I'm not upgrading world until some of these issues are sorted out, fine I can run fix_libtool_files.sh but then how do I fix the kde probs? Re-emerge kde?

cheers Pete

PS mebbe some packages need a bit more testing before being released? I still can't install glibc-2.3.4.20040808-r1 even though I've filed a bug report and all

I solved my issue by using gcc-config with the FULL compiler string rather than the shortcut (1/2/3/4, etc.). That seemed to sort it out - or it fixed itself in a sync, I don't really know which.

Well, it's sorted out, which is good to hear. g/l!

i just noticed, that i cannot use kde anymore, as fix_libtool_files.sh changed my .la files to be rwx only by root, not as user!

i'll have a look into the script to see if there is evidence for this...
