[gentoo-user] revdep-rebuild problem and gcc-3.4.5-r1

[John J. Foster]

Good morning all,

I usually run 
//garbanzo/root # emerge -pv depclean

followed by
//garbanzo/root # revdep-rebuild -p 
after all world updates, and rarely have any issues at all. This is a
stable x86 system, except for kde, mutt, amarok and their dependencies.
For about a week now, revdep-rebuild is spitting out

//garbanzo/root # revdep-rebuild -p
...
broken /usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.4.5/lib-org-w3c-dom.la
        (requires /usr/lib/libgcj.la)
broken /usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.4.5/lib-org-xml-sax.la
        (requires /usr/lib/libgcj.la)
done.
...
All prepared. Starting rebuild...
emerge --oneshot -p =sys-devel/gcc-3.4.5-r1
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild   R   ] sys-devel/gcc-3.4.5-r1
Now you can remove -p (or --pretend) from arguments and
    re-run revdep-rebuild.

I go ahead and remove the pretend option or reemerge gcc, and the next 
run of revdep-rebuild show the same thing. I'm not real sure how to
proceed.

All ideas welcome,
Thanks,
festus
