Hi Steven, |

I am really sorry for the confusion in glibc on Prefix. We are on the |
| 4 |
way to make it work out-of-the-box, finally. |

What profile are you using? From your previous email it seems wrong: |

prefix/linux/amd64 is for prefix-rpath, which replies on host libc. |
| 55 |
What should be used is prefix/linux-standalone/amd64, see bug 521138[1]. |
| 56 |
|
| 57 |
On my system, |
| 58 |
|
| 59 |
$ eselect profile list |
| 60 |
Available profile symlink targets: |
| 61 |
[1] gentoo_prefix:prefix/linux/amd64 |
| 62 |
[2] gentoo_prefix:prefix/linux-standalone/amd64 * |
| 63 |
|
| 64 |
Therefore |
| 65 |
|
| 66 |
$ eselect profile set 2 |
| 67 |
|
| 68 |
would do the profile switch. |

There is still hope to fix the running system. After switching to the |
| 74 |
currect profile, emerge @system again. I am not sure if the glibc in |
| 75 |
prefix overlay would work[2]. If not, give the one in my overlay[3] a |
| 76 |
try. |
| 77 |
|
| 78 |
I am available to help with any further problems. |
