Thanks anyway, Duncan, but I'm back to a stable 3.4.4 system now. I had to |
10 |
re-solve a problem with gnutls and I had to re-compile the kernel, but for |
11 |
the moment everything's looking solid. I probably ought to leave the GCC |
12 |
upgrade now until I come back from my honeymoon. |

But 4.1.1 did exist as well - it must have to compile the kernel with |
19 |
modules that had 4.1.1-magic. I don't know why the emerge process couldn't |
20 |
find it, but I'm sure it was there, or had been at some stage. (After |
21 |
restoring my backup with its 3.4.4 kernel modules, the 4.1.1 kernel in |
22 |
my /boot partition couldn't load those modules at boot time, so I had to |
23 |
boot an older system and recompile the kernel with 3.4.4 GCC. Soon done, |
24 |
but it confirms the presence of gcc-4.1.1.) |
