Thank you!

If I now upgrade with

gcc-config x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-7.3.0
env-update && source /etc/profile
emerge --ask --oneshot sys-devel/libtool

must I do a world update --emptytree as when converting to the 13.0
profile.

I believe not as the requirement when upgrading to 13.0 was due to the
new generation of PIE output.

Again, thank you.

gcc-7.3.0-r3 is stable, you probably updated your ::gentoo repository
without updating eix. Run eix-update and check again.

[gentoo-user] --depclean and sys-devel/gcc

I run a stable system so am surprised to see that eix reports
I have gcc version ~7.3.0-r3 installed.  (gcc-config -l reports
that stable x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-6.4.0 is the active compiler)

More surprising is that
   emerge --depclean --pretend sys-devel/gcc
wants to remove everything *except* the testing/nonstable 7.3.0-r3

grep -r gcc /etc/portage
has no hits.

@system and several installed packages require gcc but all would be
satisfied by stable 6.4.0-r1 my active compiler

# emerge --depclean --verbose --pretend sys-devel/gcc

Calculating dependencies... done!
  sys-devel/gcc-7.3.0-r3 pulled in by:
@system requires sys-devel/gcc
dev-java/icedtea-bin-3.6.0 requires >=sys-devel/gcc-5.4.0
net-libs/webkit-gtk-2.20.4 requires >=sys-devel/gcc-4.9
sys-devel/llvm-4.0.1-r1 requires >=sys-devel/gcc-3.0
sys-devel/llvm-5.0.2 requires >=sys-devel/gcc-3.0
sys-devel/llvm-6.0.1 requires >=sys-devel/gcc-3.0
sys-libs/glibc-2.26-r7 requires >=sys-devel/gcc-4.9

>>> These are the packages that would be unmerged:

 sys-devel/gcc
selected: 4.9.3 4.9.4 5.4.0-r3 6.4.0-r1 
   protected: none 
 omitted: 7.3.0-r3 

Am I supposed to
   emerge --unmerge =sys-devel/gcc-7.3.0-r3
?

thanks in advance,

PS I moved some months ago to the 17.0 profile and did the
make --emptytree @world
