Hi all,
I'm having some trouble installing the latest gcc (which I need to
build another program called Gromacs).
I am on Scientific Linux release 6.8 (Carbon) (kernel
2.6.32-573.3.1.el6.x86_64), trying to install gcc-5.4.0.
After installing the latest gmp, mpfr and mpc, I create a separate
objdir build/install directory as recommended. In there, as root, I run:
../gcc-5.4.0/configure
Which fails with:
/usr/bin/ld: crt1.o: No such file: No such file or directory
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
configure: error: I suspect your system does not have 32-bit
developement librar
ies (libc and headers). If you have them, rerun configure with
--enable-multilib
. If you do not have them, and want to build a 64-bit-only compiler,
rerun confi
gure with --disable-multilib.
So as directed by the output, I try:
../gcc-5.4.0/configure --disable-multilib
Now it fails with:
checking for x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc...
/root/gcc-5.4.0-install/./gcc/xgcc
-B/root/gcc-5.4.0-install/./gcc/

checking for suffix of object files... configure: error: in
`/root/gcc-5.4.0-ins
tall/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/libgcc':
configure: error: cannot compute suffix of object files: cannot compile
See `config.log' for more details.
Can anyone suggest what the fix might be? I've looked in config.log as
the output suggests but can't find any reference to
x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc.
cheers,
Doug
