gcc v2.95.2: error within installation phase "build"

["Michael Grindel" <m dot grindel at docustore dot de>]

Hallo,

 

I am running Suse-Linux V6.3 with gcc V2.91.66 installed on a pc (with AMD 600 processor).

 

Having downloaded gcc V2.95.2 successfully the configuration phase ("configure --enable-version-specific-runtime-libs")
has run without errors. Running the building phase ("make bootstrap") results in the error:

 

.
.
Bootstrapping the compiler
make[1]: Entering directory `/gcc_obj_2.95.2/gcc´
make CC="gcc" libdir=/usr/local/lib LANGUAGES="c "
make[2]: Entering directory `/gcc_obj_2.95.2/gcc´
gperf -L C -F ´, 0, 0´-p -j1 -i 1 -g -o -t -G -N is_reservered_word \
   -k1,3,$ /gcc_src_2.95.2/gcc/c-parse.gperf >tmp-gperf.h
/bin/sh: gperf: command not found
.
.

 

And indeed a program called "gperf"  doesn't exist on the pc. On the othher hand the description of the building phase says

that calling "make bootstrap" will build all host tools (including texinfo, bison, gperf) necessary to build the compiler.

 

What have I to do for generating "gperf" ?

 

Please send your answer to:   m.grindel@docustore.de

 

Kind regards,
