Hello,

I installed gcc46 after some problems.
After that I try to install www/firefox but it fails with this message:

Please report the problem to gecko@FreeBSD.org [maintainer] and attach the
"/usr/ports/www/firefox/work/mozilla-release/config.log" including the output
of the failure of your make command. Also, it might be a good idea to provide
an overview of all packages installed on your system (e.g. an `ls
/var/db/pkg`).

The /usr/ports/www/firefox/work/mozilla-release/config.log looks like this

No one who can help me. Chancing the make.conf to this did not help.

I'm wondering why it's picking up GCC 4.6 when there's no need for it.

Did you perhaps build your base OS without GCC?
 
I don't think so. I have used the make.conf on post yesterday 15.37. But maybe I'm wrong here. Can you build without gcc? And when I'm doing gcc -v I get a message that the old version is used.

Tricky but it should be possible, at least in theory. You probably would have to build world with clang. But if you don't know this you probably still have the GCC from the base.

And when im doing gcc-v I get a message that the old version is used.

Ok, that's good to know. In that case it's Firefox's configure script that seems to be confused.
 
Okay, but I don't understand one thing. I install the newest version of gcc. After that I try to install Firefox. Then I would expect that it uses the newest version. Why is it good it uses and finds the old version? And how can it solve my problem?
 
The port should use the default compiler even if GCC 4.6 is installed. Only if you modify make.conf should it pick 4.6. Or at least that's what I would have expected.

Apparently this is not correct and Firefox will indeed pick up 4.6:

checking whether the C compiler (gcc46 -O2 -pipe  -O2 -Wl,-rpath=/usr/local/lib/gcc46 -fno-strict-aliasing     -Wl,-rpath=/usr/local/lib/gcc46) is a cross-compiler... no

So it looks like it's failing because lang/gcc46 isn't installed properly.
 
It looks like it uses gcc 4.6 the right way:
