updating everything to the newest version possible, however I'm still surprised |
9 |
that the configure script took issue with GCC this early in the installation |

OK, thank you. Please remember to post the entire log of emerge, and the output |

BTW: please stop top-posting (that is, quoting the entire thread and then |
20 |
prepending your response). It is not only a tremendous waste of disk space, but |

also makes it unclear as to which part of the quoted message you're replying. |
