I take offense to you accusing me of being disingenuous as well. * dev-lang/gnat-gcc Available versions: (3.4) 3.4.6 (4.1) 4.1.2 (4.2) 4.2.3 (4.3) *4.3.2 ~*4.3.3 4.3.5 ~4.3.6 (4.4) ~4.4.3 ~4.4.5 ~4.4.7 (4.5) ~4.5.4 {nls} Homepage: http://gcc.gnu.org/ Description: GNAT Ada Compiler - gcc version [UD] sys-devel/gcc Available versions: (2.95) ~*2.95.3-r10!s (3.1) *3.1.1-r2 (3.2) **3.2.2!s *3.2.3-r4 (3.3) (~)3.3.6-r1!s (3.4) 3.4.6-r2!s (4.0) ~*4.0.4!s (4.1) 4.1.2!s (4.2) (~)4.2.4-r1!s (4.3) (~)4.3.3-r2!s 4.3.4!s (~)4.3.5!s 4.3.6-r1!s (4.4) (~)4.4.2!s (~)4.4.3-r3!s 4.4.4-r2!s 4.4.5!s 4.4.6-r1!s 4.4.7!s (4.5) (~)4.5.1-r1!s (~)4.5.2!s 4.5.3-r2!s 4.5.4!s (4.6) (~)4.6.0!s (~)4.6.1-r1!s (~)4.6.2!s 4.6.3!s (~)4.6.4!s (4.7) (~)4.7.0!s (~)4.7.1!s (~)4.7.2-r1!s (~)4.7.3!s (4.8) **4.8.0!s **4.8.1!s {altivec bootstrap boundschecking build cxx d doc fixed-point fortran gcj go graphite gtk hardened ip28 ip32r10k java libssp lto mudflap multilib multislot n32 n64 nls nopie nossp nptl objc objc++ objc-gc openmp regression-test static vanilla} Installed versions: 4.5.3-r2(4.5)!s(05:37:02 PM 01/18/2012)(cxx doc mudflap multilib nls nptl openmp -altivec -bootstrap -build -fixed-point -fortran -gcj -graphite -gtk -hardened -libffi -libssp -lto -multislot -nocxx -nopie -nossp -objc -objc++ -objc-gc -test -vanilla) 4.8.2(4.8)!s(04:43:17 PM 02/28/2014)(cxx doc multilib nls nptl openmp -altivec -awt -fixed-point -fortran -gcj -go -graphite -hardened -libssp -mudflap -multislot -nopie -nossp -objc -objc++ -objc-gc -regression-test -vanilla) Homepage: http://gcc.gnu.org/ Description: The GNU Compiler Collection *I am not counting gcc-aux as it is not comparable to the count from portage main gcc*. I am only counting the main official gcc ports. Note gcc gnat is also an entirely separate thing. I don't know what GCC-AUX is and it's still not part of the 34* count from portage there on gcc alone. GCC-AUX: http://www.dragonlace.net/ That's not official GCC, it's a derivative. I commend and thank you for your work, but it's not part of my point. -- Regards, Bryan Drewery
