Bug ID: 64595 Summary: cgo installed into wrong directory Product: gcc Version: 5.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: go Assignee: ian at airs dot com Reporter: rguenth at gcc dot gnu.org CC: cmang at google dot com With --enable-version-specific-runtime-libs I get go and gofmt installed in $prefix/bin but cgo is installed into $prefix/lib/gcc/$target/$version/cgo That is inconsistent. >From the install log: [ 4801s] test -z "/usr/bin" || /usr/bin/mkdir -p "/home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/gcc5-5.0.0+r219531-0.x86_64/usr/bin" [ 4801s] /usr/bin/install -c go '/home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/gcc5-5.0.0+r219531-0.x86_64/usr/bin/./go-5' [ 4801s] /usr/bin/install -c gofmt '/home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/gcc5-5.0.0+r219531-0.x86_64/usr/bin/./gofmt-5' [ 4801s] test -z "/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/5" || /usr/bin/mkdir -p "/home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/gcc5-5.0.0+r219531-0.x86_64/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/5" [ 4801s] /usr/bin/install -c cgo '/home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/gcc5-5.0.0+r219531-0.x86_64/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/5/./cgo-5' that is, why bin_PROGRAMS = go$(EXEEXT) gofmt$(EXEEXT) libexecsub_PROGRAMS = cgo$(EXEEXT) ? There are also no manual pages or other documentation about these tools it seems.
