Re: [gentoo-dev] Gcc 3.0.4 installed system

[Spider]

ok, I've just been bashing some against gcc3 and an upgrade from -rc6.

in short: it works

the long answer is... Youll want to rebuild a lot of things.

First, you want to identify all packages that use libstdc++

find / -type f -perm +o+x  | while read FILE
  do ldd "${FILE}" |grep "libstdc++" - >/dev/null && echo ${FILE}
>>/root/REBUILD.files
# (this above  is a single line)
echo ${FILE}
done


#  Now, you want gentoolkit installed (qpkg is your friend ;)


# then, get the package they belong to.
cat /root/REBUILD.files |while read FILE
  do qpkg -nc -f "${FILE}" >>/root/REBUILD.packs;echo ${FILE}
done


# Now, we reduce that list further 
cat /root/REBUILD.packs |sort |uniq >/root/REBUILD.packs.new

look at those packages, and then calmly remove them.  mozilla, galeon,
gtkmm, gabber, ickle, blackbox, openssl, bbpager, fluxbox .... all that.



in openssl ebuild add this in src_unpack:
        patch -p0 < ${FILESDIR}/openssl-0.9.6c-gcc3.patch

bbpager breaks (incompatible with gcc3)

I dont think netscape 4.73 will work either. :/


Well.. thats all folks ;)
