I keep getting a "install-sh not found" when trying to install gcc on a Solaris 9 box. The problem is when there is no compatible BSD install program in the current path, configure defaults to using install-sh supplied in the top level dir of the src. However either configure or the Makefile it generates is not setting the relative path to install-sh in the Makefiles of the subdirectories.
The work around is to either install a BSD compatible install program like ginstall and make sure the binary is in your current path. Or to uncompress the gcc source, run configure as normal, then edit the top level Makefile and set INSTALL to the absolute path of install-sh. -- Summary: install-sh not found Product: gcc Version: 3.4.3 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: c AssignedTo: unassigned at gcc dot gnu dot org ReportedBy: hip at cs dot okstate dot edu CC: gcc-bugs at gcc dot gnu dot org http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=20609
