Yes, that WAS clear enough. So we have an even more nasty documentation |
| 29 |
bug in the gentoo installation handbook (it tells to ``emerge |
| 30 |
--emptytree system'') and a nasty portage (or was it bootstrap?) bug (it |
| 31 |
tells me to be aware, that we need to add -e to emerge system now after |
| 32 |
finishing. |

gcc-config ran after the installation. (see in one fo my further posts, |
| 38 |
there was the "Native compiler changed to ..." amongst the messages. |

I've found (with some help of b.g.o.) that these ARE bugs. Here's the |
| 41 |
whole success story. |
| 42 |
|

scripts/bootstrap.sh |

#to work around the autoconf dependency bug |
| 45 |
emerge --oneshot --nodeps autoconf |
| 46 |
emerge --oneshot --nodeps aotoconf-wrapper |
| 47 |
#to work around the python-fchksum dependency bug |
| 48 |
emerge --oneshot --nodeps python |
| 49 |
emerge --emptytree system |
| 50 |
|
| 51 |
No fix_libtool_files.sh necessary. Why? There never was an older version |
| 52 |
of gcc. |
| 53 |
|
| 54 |
Some words to the autoconf ... will start a new thread. |
| 55 |

| 56 |
So much to the ability. |
