Bug #: 57135
Summary: Missing buld intructions
Classification: Unclassified
Product: gcc
Version: 4.8.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P3
Component: bootstrap
AssignedTo: unassig...@gcc.gnu.org
ReportedBy: nicklas.karls...@karlssonwang.se
It took me quite a lot of time to figure out how to build a cross compiler.
Some simple instructions like these
http://www.ifp.illinois.edu/~nakazato/tips/xgcc.html would be great.
In particular I missed the important rows "make all-gcc", "make install-gcc"
and instead simply typed "make" as usual which seems to work but it does not. I
guess others also spent a lot time to figure what is wrong or missing then
actually they did not build everything in correct order.
There should be some kind of note or warning somewhere. For example then
running "make" it could print a message that a C library is assumed to
available otherwise build it with a naked compiler before this step.
