./configure: error: "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check
Hello,
Installing a Graphire 4 on Debian 3.1 with a 4.2.27 custom kernel.
Configure fails as shown below.
One problem is that it can both find and not find cpp and gpp.
I've read through the cpp and gcc faqs, docs, readmes, change logs, google "./configuration" etc., wacom project howto and mailing list archives.
This rare problem is sometimes related to dependencies not being available or found. Actual use of cpp and gpp is way over my head.
Below are some of the things that have been done, screen output and parts of configure.log.
Prefer not to use the .deb packages, they are over a year old and the Graphire 4 is a new model.
Also would like to stick with this kernel, upgrading that with drivers is another big project.
Any suggestions? Thank you for your time reading this.
Brent
