Ernst:
Thanks for your help. A general installation script that works on all systems would be a big help.
I did the same installation successfully on several Linux SuSe 7.x machines with two more parameters for configure:
--prefix=${HOME}/.gnu # or some other place to put the binary --host=$MACHTYPE # resolves on my Linux as i686-suse-linux
I tried that:
(lots of messages that look ok) ... Configuration i386-pc-none not supported Configure in /users/tds/gpc/gpc-build/gcc failed, exiting.
% echo $MACHTYPE i386
After grabbing the tar, your script did this:
... 12550K .......... .......... .......... ... 100% @ 129.52 KB/s
13:53:35 (427.96 KB/s) - `gcc-2.95.2.tar.gz' saved [12885815]
