Hi, After building the latest GCC from source with no errors what disappointment to find that "make install" keeps failing! I think someone forgot to update the scripts and makefiles somewhere between versions. Yes, the manual says do not use builddir = sourcedir etc. etc. but "make install" failed for me too. Theoretically you could tell the scripts where to find install.sh on the command line by saying "make INSTALL=/full/path/to/install.sh install" In the end I had to do a search & replace through configure and all makefiles, and replace all the relative references to install.sh with the absolute path. Try it -- it might help you too.

I'm running SuSE 9.1 and I downloaded the latest source code release for g++ gcc. My problem is when I try to run ./configure in the directory libstdc++-v3, it returns the following error: configure: error: cannot find install-sh or install.sh in ./../.. Thanks, John
