- Subject: CVS Documentation
Ok, downloaded the lastest CVS gcc, and tried to build the documentation
on a Redhat 7.1 Linux system, and received the following errors.
Do I need newer versions of something (and why didn't configure
check for the correct version), or is something broken?
I wanted to read through the documentation (I did a make on
gcc, and it built fine), but can't find anything that works to build
the documentation.
