Hi,
I have been trying to find the cause of a problem that I'm having building gcc from the repository. In the logs I've been seeing the following message: 239 + ../gcc/configure --prefix=/usr/lsd/Linux --verbose --with-mpc=/usr/lsd/Linux --with-mpfr=/usr/lsd/Linux --with-gmp=/usr/lsd/Linux 240 configure: loading cache /dev/null 241 /dev/null: line 1: ls:: command not found 242 checking build system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu This error message appears because line 500 of the configure script has an improperly(?) formed if statement: 500 if ls -dL / >/dev/null 2>&1; then when changed to the following, the message goes away: 500 if [ ls -dL / >/dev/null 2>&1 ]; then This has got to be the most trivial bug ever found... at least I think it's a bug. Perhaps it's indicative of a more serious problem with my system? Could I ask someone to take a peek at this please? Regards, George...
