* doc/catalyst-config.5.txt: Document linking issues with binary packagesW. Trevor King2013-11-211-1/+43
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This gives users a heads up explaining why they might see linking errors when pkgcache is enabled. I first saw this when I build a stage1 without update_seed. Because my seed stage3 linked against libmpc.so.2, some of my stage1 files linked against the older mpc. However, the mpc-1.0.1 built for the stage1 installed libmpc.so.3. When I tried to use this stage1 to build a stage2, it died with: /usr/libexec/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.6.3/cc1: error while loading shared libraries: libmpc.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory To fix this, I enabled update_seed, but binary packages built during my first pass were used to populate the stage1, so even though I'd updated the seed stage3 toolchain, I still had a stage1 with cc1 linked against libmpc.so.2. After clearing the binary package cache, I got a stage1 *built* with the updated seed stage3, which gave a cc1 linked against libmpc.so.3 (hurray!). This commit adds a warning in the pkgcache documentation that should help people understand what might be going wrong if they see similar linking errors. For more details, see the thread following http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.gentoo.catalyst/2137/focus=2193
* doc/catalyst-config.5.txt: Add man page for catalyst.confW. Trevor King2013-11-213-1/+194
| | | | | | | | This mostly translates the inline comments from files/catalyst.conf into asciidoc. While it's nice to have that as stand-alone documentation, it also makes it easier to refer to longer descriptions of any tricky issues. This gives us a place to distill the collected wisdom of current users for the benefit of others.
* Fix broken seed stage update...Brian Dolbec2013-11-211-1/+3
| | | | | | | Add a check for the update_seed option to set the correct update options. Fix default seed stage update command to properly update gcc and it's deps. Add --binpkg-respect-use=y for all cases --usepkg is enabled. Apply patch to fix broken if logic in the setup_emergeoptions() by Douglas Freed <dwfreed@mtu.edu> and rebase

* Rework update_seed support.Jorge Manuel B. S. Vicetto (jmbsvicetto)2012-12-061-3/+8
| | | | | Split it between update_seed (do we want to update the seed or not) and update_seed_command (custom command to run when updating). The later is left for advanced uses / users. If not present, catalyst will update gcc deps.
