Sorry again for the attachment but I've redirected the output into a log file along with the configure script's own log file in here. It checks to see if gcc works, and they it says no. While I just compiled another tarball and it works fine and passes that point of the script... Calyth This file contains any messages produced by compilers while running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake. configure:593: checking host system type configure:614: checking target system type configure:632: checking build system type configure:687: checking for a BSD compatible install configure:740: checking whether build environment is sane configure:778: checking whether make sets ${MAKE} configure:824: checking for working aclocal configure:837: checking for working autoconf configure:850: checking for working automake configure:863: checking for working autoheader configure:876: checking for working makeinfo configure:913: checking for gcc configure:1026: checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) works configure:1042: gcc -o conftest conftest.c 1>&5 configure:1068: checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) is a cross-compiler configure:1073: checking whether we are using GNU C configure:1082: gcc -E conftest.c configure:1101: checking whether gcc accepts -g configure:1133: checking how to run the C preprocessor configure:1154: gcc -E conftest.c >/dev/null 2>conftest.out configure:1217: checking for c++ configure:1217: checking for g++ configure:1217: checking for gcc configure:1249: checking whether the C++ compiler (gcc ) works configure:1265: gcc -o conftest conftest.C 1>&5 gcc: installation problem, cannot exec `cc1plus': No such file or directory configure: failed program was: #line 1260 "configure" #include "confdefs.h" int main(){return(0);} loading cache ./config.cache checking host system type... i586-pc-linux-gnu checking target system type... i586-pc-linux-gnu checking build system type... i586-pc-linux-gnu checking for a BSD compatible install... /usr/bin/ginstall -c checking whether build environment is sane... yes checking whether make sets ${MAKE}... yes checking for working aclocal... missing checking for working autoconf... missing checking for working automake... missing checking for working autoheader... missing checking for working makeinfo... found checking for gcc... gcc checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) works... yes checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) is a cross-compiler... no checking whether we are using GNU C... yes checking whether gcc accepts -g... yes checking how to run the C preprocessor... gcc -E checking for c++... no checking for g++... no checking for gcc... gcc checking whether the C++ compiler (gcc ) works... no configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C++ compiler cannot create executables. -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
