Nope. Would be difficult to implement as different folks would have different gcc version(s) installed; how would the package know which one to use? You can manually do this by calling gcc-config with the version to use *before* the emerge and restore it *after* the emerge (as it sets the system-wide default). This, too, would get to be rather sticky; dependencies may or may not get compiled against the gcc version you specified, and I can't begin to speculate what those problems would cause (aside from general system instability). Perhaps, however, you're trying to come up with the wrong solution to a specific problem... What are you trying to solve? -- [email protected] mailing list
