I have found some problems with the gcc-3.0 installation procedure

[Jeff Silverman <jeffs at rcs dot ee dot washington dot edu>]

Hi.  Forgive me if this is the wrong address to report this problem.


There are some errors in some of the makefiles.  The shell script
mkinstalldirs isn't where the makefile thinks it ought to be:
    27  11:30   find . -name mkinstalldirs -print
    28  11:33   cd /tmp/gcc-3.0/i686-pc-linux-gnu/libjava/libltdl
   29  11:33   pwd
    30  11:33   ls ./../../../mkinstalldirs
    31  11:33   ls
    32  11:33   vi Makefile
    33  11:34   pwd
    34  11:34   cd /tmp/gcc
    35  11:34   cd /tmp/gcc-3.0/
    36  11:34   sudo make install
It isn't clear what change I made in the makefile from the above, so let
me make it perfectly clear:
seven!jeffs 45 > fgrep mkinstalldir Makefile
# mkinstalldirs = $(SHELL) $(top_srcdir)/../../mkinstalldirs
mkinstalldirs = $(SHELL) $(top_srcdir)/../../../mkinstalldirs

Also, I found another problem; same fix:

That was the last problem.  To verify that I've done it right:
seven!jeffs 85 > /usr/local/bin/gcc -v
Reading specs from /usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.0/specs
Configured with: ./configure 
Thread model: single

I hope this is helpful.

Many thanks,


Jeff
