Any version of cpp will do (as long as it's not broken). cc -E knows about system specific defines which may differ between compier versions. Howver cc should be in the path.

Have you been able to isolate where the references to /usr/bin/cc are coming from then if it isn't from $(CC)? >I complain about this because I often use different compiler >versions.

I ran into a problem with a RH 5.2 test build where /lib/cpp exists, but not /usr/bin/cpp (and linux.cf now refers to the latter). >I see in the imake.c and imakemdep.h that /usr/bin/cpp is >being hard-coded into the executables.

For platforms where a suitable cpp can reasonably be exptected to be available in $PATH, the full path doesn't have to be specified there. A lot of platforms use 'cc -E'.

I tried setting CC and BOOTSTRAPCFLAGS and neither gets rid of the problem completely. I also have a problem with /usr/bin/cpp being hard coded in various places. I complain about this because I often use different compiler versions. I would rather just set the PATH to point to the directiry of the compiler in use for cpp, gcc, etc. I see in the imake.c and imakemdep.h that /usr/bin/cpp is being hard-coded into the executables. Also many of the Makefiles, presumably they are being constructed via imake, contain this hard-coded path. Maybe someone better informed than me can comment on this.

The top level Makefile refers to $(CC), and I guess your version of make defines it to "/usr/bin/cc". An alternative to creating the symlink is to run 'make CC= World', or find out how to change make's default (if possible).

Thanks! Possibly xc/config/cf/Makefile unless it is being overridden by one of the other xc/config/cf/* files. Look for definitions of CC. -- Dr. Andrew C.

[XFree86] where is "/usr/bin/cc" being set?
I get the message sh: line 1: /usr/bin/cc: No such file or directory when I run "make World". Where in the xfree tree is this "/usr/bin/cc" being set? I searched and grepped around the source tree but I can't seem to find where it is. Thanks! Note I know I could just make a symbolic link to get rid of the error, but that's not my question. Thanks!
