I can't say much on the reasons for your losing the gcc, |
| 15 |
but as to saving your system: |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
you made a backup before --depclean, right? use it, or at least |
| 18 |
the gcc bit. or else take the gcc out of a dated backup and do |
| 19 |
a bootstrap. |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
without backup, you can get a gcc binary from elsewhere (probably requiring |
| 22 |
the rest of the toolchain, too) and put it into the old gcc's place. |
| 23 |
then do a bootstrap, that is, compile gcc, glibc, and probably |
| 24 |
binutils for good measure for a couple times until the binaries |
| 25 |
do not change no more. for all practical purposes, three passes |
| 26 |
should do and you are back in business. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
or cross-compile a gcc for that machine, take another gentoo-hardened |
| 29 |
gcc or... |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
good luck, |
| 32 |
