All previous wine versions are builds without any problems.
What can I do to build wine 1.1.15 in Fedora 8?
If you look at the messages more closely it says:
sh: i686-redhat-linux-gnu-as: command not found
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you look earlier in your configure output it probably says it found
the 'as' command to be 'as' instead of 'i686-redhat-linux-gnu-as'
(because 'i686-redhat-linux-gnu-as' doesn't exist).
I've traced this down to tools/winegcc which is constructing various tool
commands with the compiler target names (eg: i686-redhat-linux-gnu + as)
instead of using what configure discovered for those commands (eg: 'as').
It does this based on the '-b i686-redhat-linux-gnu' argument.
This might have some relevency to newer gcc versions which appear to
install a full name set for the target compiler commands. My solution
was simply to create symlinks for what's missing. Eg: for a target name
of "i686-redhat-linux-gnu" do:
% su -
Password:
cd /usr/bin
ln -s as i686-redhat-linux-gnu-as
ln -s ld i686-redhat-linux-gnu-ld
ln -s nm i686-redhat-linux-gnu-nm
ln -s ar i686-redhat-linux-gnu-ar
ln -s ranlib i686-redhat-linux-gnu-ranlib
ln -s strip i686-redhat-linux-gnu-strip
ln -s cpp i686-redhat-linux-gnu-cpp
Hope that helps.
