Greetings,
I unpacked gpc-19990118.i586-pc-linux-gnulibc1.tar.gz, distributed the files and now I can't compile anything at all. I have the same problem that was reported in January 1998
I am having trouble with GPC 971001 on my RedHat linux box. It doesn't compile _anything_, but always gives the following error, regardless of what I try to compile:
/tmp/cca00834.i:1: numeric constant with no digits /tmp/cca00834.i:1: numeric constant with no digits /tmp/cca00834.i:1: invalid #line /tmp/cca00834.i:2: warning: missing program header /tmp/cca00834.i:2: parse error at null character
the output of gpc 'trig.pas -v' is:

Has there been any progress in fixing this problem? Or is it something silly that I have done in the installation.
Please reply to me by e-mail at nhi025@abdn.ac.uk
Thanks in advance
