RE: gcc loading question

Actually I thought of an even better answer to your question.

You shouldn't have to build gcc, and you shouldn't have to build Perl. You
can get both from the Sun Freeware site (http://www.sunfreeware.com/) and
install them using pkgadd. You can use 'Perl -V' to determine which version
of gcc you need, then install that gcc and use it to build the DBI library
(and any DBDs you need).

Only on a very space or access limited machine would you have to resort to
actually building gcc.

Subject: gcc loading question


I am trying to load gcc 3.3.2 in order to load and compile perl 5.8 and
finally load DBI.

I am using UNIX OS with Solaris 8 on a SunBlade 2000.



This is what I did:



# cd /local/icab11/gcc_load
# ls
gcc-3.3.2.tar
# tar xvf gcc-3.3.2.tar
# cd gcc-3.3.2

# cd /home
# mkdir objdir
# chmod 777 objdir
# cd objdir
# /local/icab11/gcc_load/gcc-3.3.2/configure --prefix=/usr

# make bootstrap
..
..

..
creating ./config.status
creating Makefile
creating config.h
mksh: Fatal error in reader: = missing from replacement macro reference
Current working directory /home/objdir/sparc-sun-solaris2.8/libjava
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `all-target-libjava' Current
working directory /home/objdir
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `bootstrap'



Can some help me?



Thanks



Oscar
