Hello: I'm trying to install gcc 4.7.1 from Debian for ia64 arch. I have downloaded all packages and dependencies plus eglibc 2.13 because gcc 4.7.1 requires a version >= 2.11 and the RedHat 3.0 installed in the machine provides an older one. When I extract the files from *.deb packages I obtain a classical directory tree: etc/ lib/ sbin/ usr/ var/ and inside usr/: bin/ include/ lib/ sbin/ share/ So now I need to add the correct data to paths environments. For PATH I have no doubts, the path is usr/bin. But I have doubts about LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Should I add lib/, in which is stores libc.so, libm.so, etc? I think yes, but I don't know if this new libc can produce conflicts with the libc of the system. In lib/ exists another directory called ia64-linux-gnu/ Should this folder be explicitly added to LD_LIBRARY_PATH? I've tried to manually set for the current session the LD_LIBRARY_PATH to lib/ folder and when I try to execute gcc 4.7.1 I obtain the error: ../usr/bin/gcc-4.7: relocation error: workdir/software/gcc-4.7.1/lib/libc.so.6.1: symbol _rtld_global_ro, version GLIBC_PRIVATE not defined in file ld-linux-ia64.so.2 with link time reference I don't know exactly the message, but ld-linux-ia64.so.2 is in lib/ and lib/ia64-linux-gnu/ I obtain this error if I try to use any other system utility, as ls command, for example, so I think conflicts between the new libc and the system one In the usr/lib/ folder exists too some libraries and directories. Shoud I add only usr/lib/ to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH or the subfolders too? And what about usr/include/ folder? Should I add it to some environment variable?
