Hello Thanks for your comments... in fact it worked by uncompressing a brand new gcc source, the problem was a previous ./configure that failed because dependencies, I installed them and retried to ./configure and make, but it appears the previous actions left some garbage. After retrying with new unzipped sources it compiled perfectly :D Thanks for your help On Wed, Sep 1, 2010 at 9:13 PM, Tom Browder <tom.browder@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > On Wed, Sep 1, 2010 at 18:11, Ian Lance Taylor <iant@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: >> Miguel Cardenas <renito73@xxxxxxxxx> writes: >> >>> checking for suffix of object files... configure: error: in >>> `/tmp/gcc-4.5.1/objdir/i686-pc-linux-gnu/libgcc': >>> configure: error: cannot compute suffix of object files: cannot compile >>> See `config.log' for more details. >>> make[2]: *** [configure-stage1-target-libgcc] Error 1 > > Miguel, after a similar set of problems in the last few days, I > recommend taking the steps suggested by Andrew Haley: > > Start with a freshly unzipped source directory: > > $ tar -xvjf gcc-4.5.1.tab.bz2 > > and download this file into it: > > http://gcc.gnu.org/svn/gcc/trunk/contrib/download_prerequisites > > Then: > > $ cd gcc-4.5.1 > $ sh ./download_prerequisites > > That will get the exact versions of gmp, mpfr, and mpc that are used > by the developers and you will have the best chance of getting all > their configurations correct. > > Then make a build directory OUTSIDE the source tree. > > $ cd .. # it is STRONGLY recommended NOT to build in > the source tree > $ mkdir objdir > $ cd objdir > $ ../gcc-4.5.1/configure ...... > make..... > > I think you will have better luck. > > HTH. > > Regards, > > -Tom > > Thomas M.
