1 This problem has been irking me for some time now.
2
3 Whenever I try to build packages manually i.e. not emerge. They fail
4 when executing ./configure with the following error:
5
6 Invalid configuration `i686-pc-linux-': machine `i686-pc-linux' not
7 recognized
8 configure: error: /bin/sh ./config.sub i686-pc-linux- failed
9
10 several different packages have done this so I believe it is a system
11 setup issue. I can sometimes avoid the problem by passing a --build
12 argument to ./configure. Luckily emerge seems to work fine, its only
13 manual compiles.

15 Any help would be appreciated...
