am I right in assuming that i need to set my default profile to 
i386-pc-linux-gnu-gcc ?


gcc-config -l shows these options:

[2] i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.3.5-hardened
[3] i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.3.5-hardenednopie
[4] i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.3.5-hardenednossp

how do i create one for i386 or more likely how do i get tightvnc to
compile with this profile.

Well if you don't have it, then this isn't the problem.  Re-select 
profile 1, env-update, source /etc/profile and see if it works.  If not, 
then it's something that I can't help you with.

Thanks for the response Colin, for now I'll just get around it by
using vnc rather than tight vnc, and wait to see if this same error
occurs again.

If anyone could suggest a cause for this i would be greatfull, as a
lot of other software i have been trying to install has been failing
to compile and im starting to think it could all be related.


Generally, this is caused by changing your CHOST [That's when it 
happened to me.], but I suppose it could just been some portage/ebuild 
oddity.  IIRC, this can be corrected with an emerge -e system.


As a workaround, when you find a package that gives this error, go into 
the portage work directory and sed -e 's/i386-/i686-/g' all the auto* 
generated files (particularly the Makefile) [Heck, you might be able to 
safely do this to ALL the files.], then move through the ebuild manually 
(see 'man ebuild').


This should cause the system to look for i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc, which 
you should have.

[gentoo-user] compile probs in general (tightvnc in particular)

2005-06-27 Thread James Ferguson
Hi All,

Im having trouble emerging tightvnc, I'm running a 2005.0 stage 3 system

this is the error im getting:

gcc-config error: Could not run/locate i386-pc-linux-gnu-gcc
make[2]: *** [vncauth.o] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory
`/var/tmp/portage/tightvnc-1.3_alpha5/work/vnc_unixsrc/libvncauth'
make[1]: *** [all] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory
`/var/tmp/portage/tightvnc-1.3_alpha5/work/vnc_unixsrc'
make: *** [World] Error 2

If anyone could suggest a cause for this i would be greatfull, as a
lot of other software i have been trying to install has been failing
to compile and im starting to think it could all be related.

I had the same problem while bootstrapping.  After the bootstrap failed, 
I just ran gcc-config to switch to i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc-3.3.5, and 
continued the bootstrap where I left off..  Use gcc-config and select a 
new compiler.  Then env-update; source /etc/profile and emerge again.

i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.3.5 * was already set as default.
so I evn-update and source /etc/profile, still got the same error.

am I right in assuming that i need to set my default profile to 
i386-pc-linux-gnu-gcc ?

gcc-config -l shows these options:

[1] i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.3.5 *
[2] i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.3.5-hardened
[3] i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.3.5-hardenednopie
[4] i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.3.5-hardenednossp

how do i create one for i386 or more likely how do i get tightvnc to
compile with this profile.
