Description PeteVine 2009-10-05 15:40:50 UTC
Hi,

It looks like the following file from one of the gcc mirrors:
ftp://gd.tuwien.ac.at/gnu/gcc/releases/gcc-4.4.1/gcc-4.4.1.tar.bz2

has two .hpp files misnamed as .hp which causes the build to fail, namely:

hash_load_check_resize_trigger_imp.hp
constructors_destructor_fn_imps.hp
Comment 1 Paolo Carlini 2009-10-05 15:42:12 UTC
The files are definitely named correctly in SVN.
Comment 2 PeteVine 2009-10-05 17:20:34 UTC
Still I hope the mirrored file gets fixed. Thanks
Comment 3 Andrew Pinski 2009-10-05 17:23:54 UTC
The problem usually stems from using the wrong tar to untar it.
GNU tar is usually the best tar to use for the gcc sources.
Comment 4 PeteVine 2009-10-05 17:31:24 UTC
Could you elaborate? Did you mean a wrong tar for creating a tarball? I'm ceratinly using gnu tar here and have never had any such problems.

No, he said untar.

I just downloaded the file from that mirror and it matches its md5 sum, extracts without errors, and has no misnamed files. I suggest you check the md5 sum of the file you have and download it again if necessary.

Wouldn't you consider it strange that a wrong md5 would only cause a renaming of 2 files and no real corruption? (the build was successful) If anything it must be something with my tar, perhaps it's too old? (version 1.13)

At http://gcc.gnu.org/install/prerequisites.html we explicitly document 
that you need GNU tar version 1.14 or later.

Thanks and sorry for the false alarm...
