Hello all,
Yesterday I managed to successfully build GCC and all of the
accompanying languages that it supports by default (Ada, C, C++,
Fortran, Go, Java, Objective-C, Objective-C++, and Link-time
Optimization (LTO)). I did not build JIT support because I have not
herd if it is stable or not.
Anyways, seeing as I didn't (and still do not) want to wait another 12
hours for that to build, I compressed it into a .tar.bz2 archive,
copied it over to another server, decompressed it, and here's when the
problems start. Keep in mind that I did ensure that all files were
compressed and extracted.
When I go into my build subdirectory build tree, and type "make
install -s", it installs gnat, gcc (and g++), gfortran, gccgo, and
gcj, but it errors out (and, subsequently, bales out) and says the
following:
Making install in tools
make[3]: *** [install-recursive] Error 1
make[2]: *** [install-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: *** [install-target-libjava] Error 2
make: *** [install] Error 2
And then:
$ gcj
gcj: error: libgcj.spec: No such file or directory
I'm considering the test suite, but until it installs, I'm not sure if
executing the test suite would be very wise at this point. To get it
to say that no input file was specified, I have to manually run the
following commands:
$ cd x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/libjava
$ cp libgcj.spec /usr/bin
Has the transportation of the source code caused the build tree to be
messed up? I know that it works perfectly fine on my other server.
Running make install without the -s command line parameter yields
nothing. Have I done something wrong?
