Earlier I was running the install for ccc until I find out HP encrypts the CCC
rpm the
installer expects with gnupg. When I was trying to do an apt-get install ccc,
saturday
I had to abort it when it got the ccc setup and expected the decrypted ccc rpm.
However, their form mail cgi for submitting a request for a key was broken on
saturday,
I emailed their webmaster and amazingly it got fixed yesterday. So, I got a key
and
decrypted the rpm package for ccc, then tried to run an apt-get install ccc
again.
Said it was already installed, so I did an apt-get remove ccc and then a dpkg
--purge
ccc, and did another apt-get install ccc... but now it bombs like this when it
gets
to the ccc configure script...
Error: gcc -V 2.95.4 failed to compile and link "int main(int argc, char
**argv) {return 0;}".
The ccc installation expects a working installation of GCC.
gcc: `-V' must come at the start of the command line
Aborting
If you can correct the problem, you can rerun this script manually
by entering a command in the following format:
create-comp-config.sh ccc-version [gcc-path]
The current invocation of create-comp-config.sh was:
/usr/lib/compaq/ccc-6.5.9.001-6/alpha-linux/bin/create-comp-config.sh
ccc-6.5.9.001-6
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/alpha-linux/2.95.4
dpkg: error processing ccc (--configure):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
ccc
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
Both gcc-3.3 and gcc-2.95 seem to work and compile things fine.. however it
seems the default
output is set to a.out and not ELF (maybe that's normal for linux/alpha but I
don't know).
