Your gcc profile is a set of gcc specs and symlinks to a specific gcc |
| 21 |
version, since you can have more than one. The error just means |
| 22 |
gcc-config didn't get run properly before uninstalling your previous |
| 23 |
version of gcc. |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
Run gcc-config to set your profile to the one you have listed: |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
# gcc-config 1 |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
You will get the error every time you run gcc-config until you set a |
| 30 |
valid profile; after that it should go away and builds should work again. |
