Sorry if this is a repost. Perhaps I need to learn better the use of the Gentoo Search Engine. I input :
| Code: | | sys-apps/file-4.17-r1 i386-pc-linux-gnu-gcc |
and received no valid query responses. So, this is perhaps a repost, but, I didn't have the patience to search 177 pages for the correct response - lol. Perhaps the moderators will chastise me and say "go here you idiot."
Obviously I'm a n00b to Linux (about 1.5-years) and Gentoo (about 10 months).
The problem originated due to my lack of updating my system. When I followed the advise of a good freind (whom I met on the Gentoo forums and whom lives on an entirely different continent) the problems began. The problems were of my own origination in that I wasn't doing good updates, and didn't know such things as revdep-rebuild et.al.
(Trust me, my idiocy has forced me to study - lol)
The bottom line was, I lost
due to my stupidity.
So, fine says I....
I'll do a new stage1 rebuild though I know it to be a hassle and 5/8ths (yet, a continuous learning experience - lol).
So, now we come to the meat of the matter, which is the subject line of this posting.
The main error lines involve the 16th of 203 packages (perhaps I should pair-down my use flags for initial builds, or, go stage3 as has been suggested by my friend in Spain) and this regards sys-apps/file-4.17-r1 with the errors:
| Code: | unable to execute i386-pc-linux-gnu-gcc: no such file or directory
error: i386-pc-linux-gnu-gcc failed to execute with exit status 1 |
Well, I am building this for an i686 system if that makes a difference. I know in the past I built it for the generic x86 and all worked a bit better. But, my use flags did change, and I did copy my /etc/config files to a safe place before I started the process. Yes, my original use flags did change to represent the higher value. (perhaps, at times, the lowest common denominator is a better choice - hmmmmm.)
At any rate, my limited ability at reasoning with Linux tells me that if I can find the correct path to the required i386-pc-linux-gnu-gcc, then I can do a simple mkdir and solve the problem.
Then
should work.
Doing | Code: | | emerge --resume --skipfirst |
doesn't work, since we fall into dependancy issues. (which is logical, since this is 16 of 203 - and danged, I need to cut back my use flags on the lol.
My basic question, thus (and in my long-winded manner) will be "what is the correct path to 'i386-pc-linux-gnu-gcc' so that I might do a mkdir and solve this glitch?"
If I'm posing an improper question or making an inproper report, please inform me thusly. In this way, I too can become more diligent in my usage of Gentoo/Linux.
There was a time in my life that I was a Window$ power user. Linux, however, is of a much higher learning curve (for obvious reasons). If someday I can at least become proficient in Linux, well, then I'd be a happy camper.
With My Respect

Well, a bit 
Read this thread, in there you should find the answer to most of your questions about this kind of errors.
