The following:
dpkg: unexpected output from `gcc --print-libgcc-file-name':
`/usr/lib/libgcc.a'
dpkg: compiler libgcc filename not understood: no gcc-lib component

The following:

# field. However, one may hack a full makefile in here (you should
# really know what you are doing here if you do that, though)
# Please change the maintainer information, as well as the debian version
# below, (and maybe the priority as well, espescially if you are uploading
# an official package)
# The maintainer information.
maintainer := Martin Waller

# Priority of this version (or urgency, as dchanges would call it)
priority := Low
# This is the debian revision number (defaulted to 1.0 in debian.rules)
# You may leave it commented out if you use the wrapper script, or
# if you create just one kernel-image package per linux kernel revision

Dunno...the one that came with Debian 1.3.1...

The response from dpkg --print-architecture (the gcc stuff) reminds me that
i had a problem with gcc. Trying to run gcc came up with:
gcc installation problem:
cannot find 'cc1':no such file or directory
(g++ similarly gave
gcc installation problem:
cannot find 'cc1plus':no such file or directory)
This was from a Debian 1.2 installation - removing gcc and re-installing
made no difference, so i fixed it with a kludge:
ln -s /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i486-linux/2.7.2.1/ccd1 /usr/bin/cc1
I have since upgraded to Debian 1.3.1, which i thought replaced the gcc from
1.2...
Perhaps not - then the problem is with my gcc installation it appears.
Where can i get info on setting it up properly manually? De- and then
re-installing the gcc *.deb stuff makes no difference.
Ta,
Martin
