Nope! You did NOT rebuild gcc. You installed a new version of gcc, as |
| 9 |
gcc is slotted an an update to the portage tree has occurred since |
| 10 |
your last install of gcc, and you did not specify to rebuild your |
| 11 |
installed version of gcc with emerge =gcc(version) |

Clearly I think this is the latter case of rtfm. And by read the fine |
| 35 |
manual, I mean read the emerge output you sent to me. |

gcc-config is very streamlined in this sense, it comes by default in |
| 38 |
Gentoo (as far as I know), and I've used plenty of machines without |
| 39 |
it, and it's very annoying to me to say the least. It even told you |
| 40 |
to do this. Did you want it to change you USE flags for you too? |
