Two probems.

1) You have a C++ program there, rename it to .cc and use g++ on it.
2) You need libg++27-dev

Re: gcc setup problem

1998-01-30 Thread Ben Pfaff 
   Can anyone see what's gone wrong? Here is the program I am trying to compile 
-

   $ cat hello.c
   #include 
   // This program prints "Hello, World."
   main ()
   {
   cout << "Hello, World.\n";
   return 0;
   }

Your basic problem is that this is not a C program.  It is a C++
program.  Thus, you must give it a C++ extension (rename it to
hello.cc) and invoke the C++ compiler (`g++ hello.cc').

An equivalent C program:

#include 

int
main (void)
{
  puts ("Hello, World.");
  return 0;
}

gcc setup problem

1998-01-30 Thread Shane D. McAndrew 
Hi,

I am very new to C programming. I have recently installed Debian 1.3.1 including
the following C development tools -

gcc  2.7.2.1-9
libc55.4.33-6
cpp  2.7.2.1-9
binutils 2.7.0.9-3
libc5-dev5.4.33-6
libg++27 2.7.2.1-8


According to dselect, they are all installed correctly. When I try to compile
a 'Hello, World' program, I get the following error -

$ gcc hello.c
hello.c:1: iostream.h: No such file or directory


I have searched my whole hard-disk, and there is no file called iostream.h
However, I did find lots of other commonly used header files, such as

usr/include/asm/string.h
usr/lib/gcc-lib/i486-linux/2.7.2.1/include/limits.h


Can anyone see what's gone wrong? Here is the program I am trying to compile -

$ cat hello.c
#include 
// This program prints "Hello, World."
main ()
{
cout << "Hello, World.\n";
return 0;
}


Thanks in advance
-Shane D. McAndrew

No, no, no, no, no.  *smacks Galen about a bit* 

gnats != gnat.  _gnat_ is the Ada compiler that does/did evil
diversions, _gnats_ is the problem report management system, and it
has (afaik) 0 reason to be diverting gcc.  Do what Galen said, only do
it for gnat and not gnats :)

Okay so far...

Yikes!  This is wrong!  Since the version number is part of the path to the cc1
(etc.) executables, and the version number is hard-coded into gcc, it's looking
for all of the support files in the wrong place.  And the reason is...


> gnats: 3.101-2

Old versions of gnats did something very bad.  They diverted /usr/bin/gcc, and
replaced it with their own Ada-supporting version.  Which means that when the
gcc version changed, the gcc program kept the obsolete version number.  Oops.

Purge gnats from your system, or upgrade to a later version which supplies its
own "gnatgcc" binary.

Unfortunately, as you discovered later, this is a bogus workaround.  It
deprives dpkg of information it needs.

You haven't given me enough information to figure out what's wrong.  I
need to know the following:

* installed version of cpp and gcc packages
* output of "gcc --version"
* if you have gnats installed, which version

GCC setup problem

1997-10-01 Thread Waller Martin MEJ 

Hi,

 My GCC setup doesn't appear to be correct on my Debian 1.3.1 and 1.2 
system.  Initially after installing it, whenever I tried to run it, the 
message:

GCC installation problem:
cannot find cc1: no such file or directory

cc1 (and cc1plus, and libgcc.a...) were in 
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i486-linux/2.7.2.1/, so I created links in /usr/lib to 
them.

I could compile things and stuff then (like you'd want to do with gcc...).

Recently, however, i was using make-kpkg to recompile the kernel and it 
puked out the following error messages including:

dpkg: unexpected output from `gcc --print-libgcc-file-name':
 `/usr/lib/libgcc.a'
dpkg: compiler libgcc filename not understood: no gcc-lib component

The same error message comes from trying:

#dpkg --print-architecture

and

#gcc --print-libgcc-file-name

produces:

/usr/lib/libgcc.a

I tried removing and purging gcc.

However, gcc was still in /usr/bin(version 2.7.2).

But trying to compile with that 'residual' gcc gave as above:

GCC installation problem:
cannot find cc1: no such file or directory

yet gcc -v worked.

find /usr -name gcc

gave:

/usr/bin

Re-installing gcc corrected the above problem but I _still_ get errors from

dpkg --print-architecture

which means i can't recompile my kernel using make-kpkg.

Assistance is needed to identify exactly what's going on and how I can 
correct it...purging (_) and re-installing (*) after re-booting doesn't 
work.

 Thanks,

  Martin
