so run ebuild blabla.ebuild digest wow, that is hard... if you are trying software from the ~ tree, you are expected to deal with some hiccups. btw, I did the gcc 3.4.x-->4.1 step some weeks ago. And just to be safe, I did an -e system followed by an -e world. Was a good decision - I did not run in any major problems. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
