Hi: I've downloaded the full sources for gcc and unpacked them somewhere into my home directory. This results in a subdirectory of my home directory called gcc-3.4.2. I then did the following: mkdir objdir cd objdir /home/mcfall/dept/sysadmin/gcc-3.4.2/configure --prefix=/opt/gnu2 --with-local-prefix=/opt/gnu2 --enable-threads=solaris --enable-version-specific-runtime-libs --enable-languages=c,c++,f77 make bootstrap make install Without specifying the full path to configure, I got problems running make install, complaining about install-sh not being found in a relative path name. I found the suggestion to use a full path name on another post. This series of commands worked without make returning any errors that I could see. However, there is nothing in the /opt/gnu2/include directory, and this makes compiling anything useful obviously difficult. Did I miss something here? I've looked through all the installation docs and I don't see anything that I should have done differently or additionally.
