GCC bdepends over GCC to compile, you don't have GCC, you can't install GCC, |

you can't install anything (a part from binpkgs). |

also if nothign depends on it and the problem is resolved. |

BTW, as I already stated on irc, GCC is a RDEPEND not a BDEPENED because of |

libgcc_s.so and libstdc++.so, so... |
