Upgrading gcc after switching from Gentoo to Funtoo does not want to work - circular dependencies

[Zeno R.R. Davatz]

I just posted this here:

http://groups.google.com/group/funtoo-dev/browse_thread/thread/6d72697bc9e965fb

And I believe the next problem belongs into a similar category:

After I switched my old machine from Gentoo to Funtoo I wanted to
upgrade my gcc Version from 3.x to 4.x that is not easily possible as
this shows:

oldie gcc # emerge gcc
Calculating dependencies ... done!

I am running into circular dependencies. Any hints?

Thanks!

imo, it's better to install Funtoo from scratch :P

I guess we should add "1. Ensure your Gentoo Linux is up-to-date" to
our list of instructions on how to upgrade to Funtoo. Sounds like you
hit some issues by starting with an old Gentoo system.

Yes, I did start with an old Gentoo system ;) that is correct.

This also does not help:

What is the best way to go from here? Start from Scratch?

though I don't have a proper solution to your problem, I would first focus on upgrading gcc (ensure that 'emerge system -e' runs ok and then see why udev fails if it still fails. It is highly possible that by fixing the new gcc and its dependencies udev can compile fine.

Out of curiosity:

pong ~ # grep -R SO_RCVBUFFORCE /usr/include/

/usr/include/asm/socket.h:#define SO_RCVBUFFORCE 33

pong ~ # qfile /usr/include/asm/socket.h 

sys-kernel/linux-headers (/usr/include/asm/socket.h)

pong ~ # qdepends udev

sys-fs/udev-135-r9: >=sys-apps/baselayout-2.1.6 =sys-devel/automake-1.10* >=sys-devel/autoconf-2.61 sys-devel/libtool

pong ~ # 

http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gcc-upgrading.xml could maybe help you out ensuring you have a sane 'emerge system -e' with a new shiny gcc. From that troubles should be easier to fix.

If you're not in a rush be patient, don't wipe your installation, your issue is fixable.

Good luck

that gives me:

oldie ~ # emerge system -e

Won't help because gcc-config can not be installed.
