Has anybody tried to build 4.7 on Ubuntu 11.10 system. I am getting the
following linking problem (no special configure switches):
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find crt1.o: No such file or directory
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find crti.o: No such file or directory
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgcc
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgcc_s
Noramly they under /usr/lib64, but 11.10 has them under
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu.
Yes. Debian moved everything for some reason. It's a problem that must
be addressed somehow before gcc 4.7 is released.
It's extremely unfortunate that this will make it impossible to build
older releases of gcc on newer Debian installations.
