I committed a new revision of the gcc-apple compiler yesterday. This compiler is fixed NOT to use libraries from /usr, but from EPREFIX instead. I noticed this, because when I threw away normal portage on my Darwin 7 box yesterday I broke my compiler (it was using libs from /usr, installed by normal portage there). Of course on that machine this was a major pita, as compilation of gcc takes half a day there. But that problem aside.
The other change in this ebuild is the use of gcc-config, and the installation in such a way that we can install multiple compilers next to each other (maybe I'll pull in a 3.3 compiler from Apple just for fun). This might come in handy when FSF GCC4 starts to compile and run on OSX, such that we can easily try out, and switch back when necessary. The problem now is that for some (still unknown) reason (to me) the gcc-config profile the ebuild is to generate isn't generated/installed. I don't see any errors, but I don't see the profile either. This causes gcc-config to fail to switch to it, and effectively leave your system without a compiler. The profile can be manually made, but instead I'd just like all OSX users to wait with this latest ebuild, till I got it sorted out why it doesn't work. On a sidenote: how long does it take for x86-macos users to build the gcc-apple compiler? -- Fabian Groffen Gentoo on a different level -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
