Hi, if the following problem is a RTFM, I'd be glad if someone could give me a pointer to the corresponting "M".... I have the following problem when building gcc 3.3.3 or 3.4.0 on a sparc-unknown-netbsdelf1.5 system: The build works fine, using ../configure make bootstrap but the binary doesn't run: <-- snip --> $ ./gcc Shared object "libintl.so.5" not found $ objdump -p gcc ... Dynamic Section: NEEDED libintl.so.5 NEEDED libiconv.so.4 NEEDED libc.so.12 INIT 0x10de0 ... <-- snip --> libintl and libiconv are in /usr/local/lib. LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib -R/usr/local/lib" ../configure didn't work LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib ./gcc works but isn't optimal. It might be very simple, but I don't find the solution myself...
