Hi, I'm trying to install gcc to get gcj on a mac. I found that I have to put in an excessive amount of flags to even get a start on compiling gcc. For example: export CC='gcc -arch x86_64';export GXX='g++ -arch x86_64';CFLAGS='-arch x86_64';export CXXFLAGS='-arch x86_64';export CPPFLAGS='-arch x86_64' ./configure GXX='g++ -arch x86_64' CC='gcc -arch x86_64' CFLAGS='-arch x86_64' CXXFLAGS='-arch x86_64' CPPFLAGS='-arch x86_64' Then I get the error of "checking for i386-apple-darwin9.5.0-gcc... /Users/smcguffee/WHITEHOUSE_LAB/PROGRAMS/GCC/SVN/GCJ/host-i386-apple-darwin9.5.0/gcc/xgcc -B/Users/smcguffee/WHITEHOUSE_LAB/PROGRAMS/GCC/SVN/GCJ/host-i386-apple-darwin9.5.0/gcc/ -B/usr/local/i386-apple-darwin9.5.0/bin/ -B/usr/local/i386-apple-darwin9.5.0/lib/ -isystem /usr/local/i386-apple-darwin9.5.0/include -isystem /usr/local/i386-apple-darwin9.5.0/sys-include checking for suffix of object files... configure: error: in `/Users/smcguffee/WHITEHOUSE_LAB/PROGRAMS/GCC/SVN/GCJ/i386-apple-darwin9.5.0/libgcc': configure: error: cannot compute suffix of object files: cannot compile See `config.log' for more details. make[2]: *** [configure-stage1-target-libgcc] Error 1 make[1]: *** [stage1-bubble] Error 2 make: *** [all] Error 2" as described above.
If I understand it correctly, you are saying that there is something called bin-utils that I need to get in addition to the gnu downloads? Can you please give me more information about this? I couldn't find anything called bin-utils and I don't know where to look.
