Summary: [4.6 Regression] libgfortran relocated install fails Product: gcc Version: 4.6.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: libfortran AssignedTo: unassig...@gcc.gnu.org ReportedBy: js...@gcc.gnu.org Installing Fortran-enabled GCC to a path other than the configured prefix, via "make install prefix=/whatever" (which is supposed to be supported according to the GNU Coding Standards) now fails. Probably caused by the the libquadmath changes; it certainly worked last month. You get errors of the form: /usr/local/tools/gcc-4.3.3/bin/bash ./libtool --mode=install /usr/local/tools/gcc-4.3.3/bin/install -c libgfortran.la '/scratch/gcc/nightly-2010-11-22-mainline/i686-pc-linux-gnu/install/lib/../lib64' libtool: install: error: cannot install `libgfortran.la' to a directory not ending in /opt/codesourcery/lib/../lib64 make[8]: *** [install-toolexeclibLTLIBRARIES] Error 1 This was known to be broken for Java - see http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2006-12/msg00363.html - but the Fortran breakage is a regression.
