Thanks. I'm a bit surprised noone else has commented - I hoped this would be a no-brainer, or at least get some constructive feedback for further improvement. > May I suggest updating > /cvs/gcc/wwwdocs/htdocs/install/prerequisites.html (or wherever it > lives) with the same wording, since it is a frequent landing page for > people hunting for GCC building/installing information? That's exactly the page I'm trying to change, it's generated from the texi file my patch changes. > And perhaps add a page to the twiki > http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/BuildingGCC to catch google searches for > "building gcc"? I recently added http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/InstallingGCC I chose "installing" not "building" because I believe that of the people who fail to build GCC and look for support, most of them probably should have installed a pre-built package supplied by their OS or another third-party packager. Maybe it could be changed to attract more search hits.
