Yep, that is pretty hosed. ;-> You can find a libstdc++.so.5 binary in the stage tarballs on the Gentoo CD, or KNOPPIX, or maybe on one of your other systems. Just copy it to /usr/lib, and you should be able to run portage. You could also try symlinking .5 to .6. That is a trick that has worked for me with some libraries, but there are no guarantees there. -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
