Re: Installation using relative (instead of hard-coded) paths


Thanx for the response. Will the regular
"prefix=../.."
mechanism then take care of this on GCC 3.0? Has 
GCC 3.0 been officially released, I don;t see it in
the GNU free software directory, although I do see
"guidelines for GCC 3.0 branch"..

Thanx,
