So to compile gcc you should untar the gcc source, cd into the created directory and then: tar -jxf ../mpfr-3.0.0.tar.bz2 mv -v mpfr-3.0.0 mpfr tar -jxf ../gmp-5.0.1.tar.bz2 mv -v gmp-5.0.1 gmp tar -zxf ../mpc-0.8.2.tar.gz mv -v mpc-0.8.2 mpc Which would untar mpfr, gmp and mpc within the gcc source.
