ARM elf cygwin installation problem - cpp.texi

[Elwyn Campbell <Elwyn dot Campbell at nautronix dot com dot au>]

Hi,

 

I'm having problems with installing the gcc cross-compiler under the latest version of Cygwin. I have downloaded the latest versions of binutils, gcc and newlib.

 

I've followed the instructions at

http://www.objsw.com/CrossGCC/FAQ-4.html

and have got to the point if installing gcc, after configuring it using

 

/src/gcc/gcc-2.95.2/configure --target=arm-elf --prefix=usr/local/arm -v

 

and then

 

make all install

 

at which point the installation is started, with the installation being aborted with the messages:

 

/tmp/build/gcc/texinfo/makeinfo/makeinfo -I/src/gcc/gcc-2.95.2/gcc -o cpp.info /src/gcc/gcc-2.95.2/gcc/cpp.texi

/src/gcc/gcc-2.95.2/gcc/cpp.texi: no such file or directory

make[1]: *** [cpp.info] Error 2

make[1]: Leaving directory '/tmp/build/gcc/gcc'

make: *** [all-gcc] Error 2

 

 

I have checked and the file cpp.texi exits and is in the correct directory.

 

Are there any suggestions of how to fix this?

 

Thanks in advance
