Especially when I have to repeat it with my 12 gentoo servers.
Sequentially, unfortunatally, as they share the same hardware...


Why not use --buildpkg the first time and --usepkg the other 11 times?


They have slightly different use-flags. But I do not know if some
of them might have impact on gcc too...


I already mentioned in another post that you don't need to build gcc 
twice and the message that tells you to do so is wrong.

I just tried to upgrade gcc (stable amd64, from 4.4.3-r2
to 4.4.4-r2) following the procedure recommended in Gentoo
GCC Upgrade Guide:

emerge -uav gcc

At the end of compilation, I got these strange messages:

* gcc-config: Could not locate 'x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-4.4.3'
in '/etc/env.d/gcc/'
!



* Please re-emerge gcc.
* http://bugs.gentoo.org/68395



That should do it :)


Thanks, "emerge --oneshot gcc" really seems to have fixed it.


What he meant was the link to bugs.gentoo.org, where it is explained 
that you don't need to do anything and all is fine; the message that 
tells you to re-emerge gcc is bogus; you do not need to re-emerge it.
