Hello, I am trying to get gcc (actually i think g++ is what I really want) on my machine. I tried the RPM route, but the dependicies seem to be endless. Thus I am taking my first shot at the tar.bz2 method. I put the archive in $HOME/gcc. Then I unpacked and extracted it in the same. The helpp files say to build it in a seperate directory, thus I created $HOME/gcc.configured cd $HOME/gcc.configured $HOME/gcc/gcc-2.95/configure >Config.guess failed to determine the host type. You need to specify one. $HOME/gcc/gcc2.95/configure host=i586-pc-linux-gnu (and everyother thing listed in the successfull builds) >Invalid configuration `host=i586-glibc20-linux': machine `host=i586-glibc20' not >recognized The only thing that partially succeeds is if i use host=localhost, but then the make, make install routine doesn't install the thing. Is there a problem with the Host? or is this wrong: [root@localhost gcc.configured]# make [root@localhost gcc.configured]#make intstall Did screw up the installation process? I have distant rumblings in my mind of make config or the like..... If this is better suited for the newbie list, please flame me off list, I like my punishment in privacy!!! ;^) Thanks, Ivan
