Hello, I made some changes in the compiler gcc-4.3.2 and am currently trying to build the compiler. There are no compilation error in the source code. I followed the steps specified at : http://gcc.gnu.org/install/index.html while configuring i used the command: root@vebs-pc:/home/vebs/gcc/gcc# export SUF=-4.3 root@vebs-pc:/home/vebs/gcc/gcc# /home/vebs/gcc/gcc-4.3.2/configure --program-suffix=$SUF root@vebs-pc:/home/vebs/gcc/gcc# make -f Makefile it exits and gives the following output.. whose last few lines are: ****************************************** checking for i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc... /home/vebs/gcc/gcc/./gcc/xgcc -B/home/vebs/gcc/gcc/./gcc/ -B/usr/local/i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ -B/usr/local/i686-pc-linux-gnu/lib/ -isystem /usr/local/i686-pc-linux-gnu/include -isystem /usr/local/i686-pc-linux-gnu/sys-include checking for suffix of object files... configure: error: cannot compute suffix of object files: cannot compile See `config.log' for more details. make[2]: *** [configure-stage1-target-libgcc] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/vebs/gcc/gcc' make[1]: *** [stage1-bubble] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/vebs/gcc/gcc' make: *** [all] Error 2 ****************************************** I have tried configuring it: 1. without suffix 2. exporting suffix in environment variable and using that environment variable as suffix 3. without using environment variable as suffix but none of the above methods worked. Please tell me where I am wrong. Thank You. -- Vaibhav Shrimali BTech(ICT), DA-IICT Gandhinagar
