gcc: fail sanity check error, I suppose due to cxx USE flag missed
Recently I've done emerge -e world
and then found that gcc
was compiled without cxx
flag. Now I can't compile any C++ package due to
configure: error: C++ preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check
I'm thinking on copying files returned by equery f gcc|grep -v share
from stage3. Will it help? Is there any simpler way?
UPDATE 1
Here's my config.log
UPDATE 2
Here's my make.conf
Please, note there's cxx
flag in USE. I've added it recently, but it does not help as I can't rebuild packages.
UPDATE 3 I have tried to reinstall gcc-4.6.3 from binary package via
emerge -avK gcc:4.6
It completed successfully but error didn't go.
Also, I've noticed that:
configure:11955: /lib/cpp conftest.cpp
cpp: error: conftest.cpp: C++ compiler not installed on this system
configure:11955: $? = 1
configure: failed program was:
| /* confdefs.h */
| #define PACKAGE_NAME "expat"
| #define PACKAGE_TARNAME "expat"
| #define PACKAGE_VERSION "2.1.0"
| #define PACKAGE_STRING "expat 2.1.0"

| /* end confdefs.h. */
| #ifdef __STDC__
| # include <limits.h>
| #else
| # include <assert.h>
| #endif
| Syntax error
Looks like it claims that C++ compiler is not installed on my system. But this sounds like rubbish, since gcc:4.6
was installed from bin-package and I assume it's compiled with C++ support.
UPDATE 4 Indeed there's a problem with g++
uhradio ~ # g++ queue.cpp
gcc-config: error: could not run/locate 'g++'
uhradio ~ # cpp queue.cpp
cpp: error: queue.cpp: C++ compiler not installed on this system
The output from gcc-config -l
is:
[1] x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-4.6.3 *

This is probably what you're looking for. In short, install the kernel headers and you should be set.

This being the case, I'd go with a reinstall, with /home and the important files (e.g. make.conf) backed up. In terms of time spent, you are probably better off.

Although emerge -avK gcc:4.6
didn't help I've manually extracted gcc-4.6.3.tbz2
into /
directory then set gcc-config 1
and it helped (although my /usr/lib
has gone after that operation, I've manually symlinked it back to /usr/lib64
. Now I'm rebuilding both gcc's (4.5 and 4.6) with cxx
USE flag.
My quesion now turns into another one. What's the reason cxx
USE flag gone from my system built from stage3? I'm installing gentoo linux for years and never explicitly set cxx
USE flag like now.

Although emerge -avK gcc:4.6

My quesion now turns into another one. What's the reason cxx

You really need to reinstall... the CXX flag is inherited from the profile usingeselect profile
