No, but libgmp3-dev, libmpfr-dev and libmpc-dev are available, and if you had installed them then you would have been able to build gcc a lot more easily. It might be too late, if you've installed them yourself and didn't know what you were doing you might have various broken installations on your system. Or they might be fine and you just need to use LD_LIBRARY_PATH. I suggest you delete the whole gcc-4.5.0 directory, as you might have made a mess of it. Then either install the gmp, mpfr and mpc dev Ubuntu packages OR set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to find your existing installations (if you sure they're installed OK). Then unzip the gcc sources again, but this time follow the advice at http://gcc.gnu.org/install/configure.html and do not run configure and make in the gcc-4.5.0 directory: tar xzvf gcc-4.5.0.tar.gz mkdir build cd build ../gcc-4.5.0/configure Now if it goes wrong you can just remove the 'build' directory and leave the gcc-4.5.0 source directory untouched. I'm going to close this bug, since it does seem to be user error not a gcc bug. Either use LD_LIBRARY_PATH or re-install the gmp/mpfr/mpc libs from your package manager. If you still have problems, seek help on an Ubuntu forum or the gcc-help mailing list. -- redi at gcc dot gnu dot org changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|UNCONFIRMED |RESOLVED Resolution| |INVALID http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=44714
