i am appending my config.log for your reference. I am getting the error : checking for suffix of executable build tools... configure: error: Cannot determine suffix of executable build tools please advice. Regards, /J Appending some part of config.log which i "think" may cause the problem. i dont know if i am correct. anyways i am appending that part. appending full config.log consumes lots of space and i have already posted that also but it needs moderator's approval. since, i need solution urgently i am posting this. configure:19488: checking for gcc configure:19504: found /usr/local/arm/3.4.1/arm-linux/bin/gcc configure:19514: result: gcc configure:19527: result: gcc configure:19531: checking for suffix of executable build tools configure:19543: gcc conftest.c -o conftest.exe configure:19546: $? =3D 0 ./configure: line 19548: ./conftest: No such file or directory configure:19543: gcc conftest.c -o conftest configure:19546: $? =3D 0 ./configure: line 19548: ./conftest: cannot execute binary file
