Re: [gentoo-amd64] HELP - can't compile anything.

[Beso]

first of all remove glibc-2.5-r0 then add multilib at your use flags and
reemerge the glibc-2.6.1 and gcc without abi=x86. then do a
emerge -e system (not world and not without -e option), this should force
and rebuild all the base system utils. after that (quite some time) you
could rebuild the rest of the system with the usual update world flags.
also you could increase the number of parallel emerge threads by setting the
-j3 to -j(number of cores^2+1 - even greater values could be ok, just see
the total load of the processor for that). this will speed-up the
recompilation and future compilation processes.
