I tried compiling sftp and the configure script did not finish. I thought this was there as I have the following C++ libaries ii libg++27 2.7.2.1-14.4 The GNU C++ libraries (ELF version). ii libg++272 2.7.2.8-0.1 The GNU C++ libraries (libc6 version).
What am I missing? Thanks, Chuck The following is what happened on my Debian 2.0 system. $ ./configure creating cache ./config.cache checking for gcc... gcc checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) works... yes checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) is a cross-compiler... no checking whether we are using GNU C... yes checking whether gcc accepts -g... yes checking for c++... no checking for g++... no checking for gcc... gcc checking whether the C++ compiler (gcc ) works... no configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C++ compiler cannot create executables. This is the start of the fetchmail configure script. $ ./configure creating cache ./config.cache checking host system type... i586-unknown-linux checking for gcc... gcc checking whether the C compiler (gcc -O -s) works... yes checking whether the C compiler (gcc -O -s) is a cross-compiler... no checking whether we are using GNU C... yes checking whether gcc accepts -g... yes checking for a BSD compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking how to run the C preprocessor... gcc -E checking whether gcc and cc understand -c and -o together... yes checking for AIX... no checking for POSIXized ISC... no checking for minix/config.h... no checking for ANSI C header files... yes Any suggestions on fixing it or will you be releaing another soon? Thanks, Chuck
