I was attempting to build the gcc system on Ubuntu Linux Edgy Eft but i received the following error: grep '^#' < kinds.h > kinds.inc /bin/sh: cannot open kinds.h: No such file make[2]: *** [kinds.inc ] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/noorez/Desktop/objdir /i686-pc-linux-gnu/libgfortran' make[1]: *** [all-target-libgfortran] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/noorez/Desktop/objdir' make: *** [all] Error 2 I am pretty sure that I downloaded and extracted all the files needed. I got them from http://gcc-ca.internet.bs/releases/gcc-4.1.2/ and downloaded all the bz2 files. I extracted them all to the same directory. I also checked to make sure that i have the prerequisites listed by the gcc website http://gcc.gnu.org/install/prerequisites.html under http://gcc.gnu.org/install/prerequisites.html. Is there anything else that I am missing then?
