--- Comment #3 from Shlomi Fish <shlomif at shlomifish dot org> --- Hi, thanks for the comments. I see it now, but wouldn't it be possible to put some logic into the ./configure stage or into the make stage that will detect if the generated files that are needed by flex or bison needs to be rebuilt and if so generate a graceful error that they are not present and that they should be installed? This will help prevent future bug reports like that. I admit I should have read the documentation, but I don't recall finding it and I had a need to install a GCC snapshot or its svn version from the repository to triage a bug report of the bleadperl version of perl 5 with the 4.9.x of GCC, and I'm not an active GCC contributor and may have forgetten this. Without a more permanent solution, people may report future bug reports like that, or ask on various Internet forums for help. Regards, -- Shlomi Fish
