So I am trying to bring my CHOST from i386-pc-linux-gnu to i686-pc-linux-gnu by following the guide at http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/change-chost.xml. Well so far things aren't working out so well. The first step is to change the CHOST variable. I also went ahead and added nptl and nptlonly to my USE flags while I was editing /etc/make.conf. Then I ran the command
# emerge -av1 binutils gcc glibc binutils seemed to have merged correctly, but the configure script for gcc seems to be having issues. The last few lines of output show: checking whether the C compiler (gcc -mtune=i686 -pipe -march=pentium3 -O2 ) works... no configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C compiler cannot create executables. I tried to manually call a g++ command on some code I have, and got the following error: g++: installation problem, cannot exec `as': No such file or directory So my compiler is broke. Any pointers on how to fix this? -- Randy Barlow http://www.electronsweatshop.com -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
