Gentoo is a distro, Mr. "distro lackey". :/
 

As I have indicated many times before, Gentoo Portage
can be used by anyone, anytime, and anywhere that is
totally independent of a Gentoo "distro."

At first, like most GNU/Linux users, I was dependent
on a distro.  But over time I have learned how to
build my own distro, thanks to Linux From Scratch (LFS)
and other sources.

Since LFS has poor automated build functionality, I use
Gentoo Portage.

That's the incredible strength of FOSS.  One can
mix and match -- if one knows what the fuck they
are doing.

That excludes YOU.  YOU are a true distro lackey
that is totally incapable of doing anything independently.

what version of gcc did you use to build it?
 

GCC versions are totally irrelevant.  The only exception
is that external kernel modules, e.g. nvidia, need
to be compiled with the same GCC major version (I think)
as the kernel.
