Hello,

until today I prefered gpc's binary distribution. But there is no recent gpc binary for x86 Linux. So I've tried to compile gpc-19990813 on my machine, using SuSE Linux 6.1 with egcs-2.91.66 on a Intel P90 :-|

First of all I've removed all old gpc releated files (I hope so) Followed by:

su cd /usr/src tar -xvzf gpc-19990813.tar.gz mv gpc/p egcs-1.1/p cd /usr/src/egcs-1.1 chgrp -R users * chown -R achim * # I've done this to avoid problems with different rigths exit

I've now the following structure: egcs source is in /usr/src/egcs-1.1 gcc source is in /usr/src/egcs-1.1/gcc gpc source is in /usr/src/egcs-1.1/gcc/p

# now as user "achim":

cd /usr/src/egcs-1.1/gcc ./configure make LANGUAGES=pascal 2>x.x cat x.x ------ Makefile:4869: warning: overriding commands for target `check-gpc' Makefile:4865: warning: ignoring old commands for target `check-gpc' make: Circular cplib2.ready <- pascal dependency dropped. cat: ./p/gpc_release: No such file or directory ^^^^^^^^^^^ this file exists! make: *** No rule to make target `prefix.h', needed by `gcj.o'. Stop. ------

So what goes wrong? Please Help! (I'm not very experienced in compiling source distributions)
