[gentoo-user] emerge broken - libstdc++.so.5

[Mark Knecht]

Hi,
   I've been working through some updates on my wife's machine and now
it appears emerge itself has been broken:

dragonfly ~ # emerge -pv bash
/usr/bin/python: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
dragonfly ~ #

   gcc and glibc updates were part of what was going on.

   I have some other Gentoo machines here at home if I need to copy something.

   How can I recover?

   First time in 3-4 years of running Gentoo that anything like this
has happened!

Thanks,
Mark
