Title: Zgcc - Cannot Exec Cpp
Post by: teleute on September 16, 2005, 11:23:45 pm
I've installed zgcc to have "make" available (in an attempt to get my bloody CF wifi working).  I've followed the instructions, but I ended up having to make my own symlinks to "make" and "gcc", which made me suspect the zgcc.sh script hadn't run properly.  When I made the links, I ran "make", which called gcc, which gave the following error:

gcc: installation problem, cannot exec `cpp':  No such file or directory

Again, I'm quite suspicious about the zgcc.sh script.  I searched here and found the following post:

You are not running zgcc.sh correctly. You must execute it via:

whateverprompt> . zgcc.sh

Note the dot -- this changes the environment of the shell you are using. The way you are executing zgcc.sh, via "./zgcc.sh" or "bash zgcc.sh" or #! /bin/bash or whatever only changes a spawned environment that is then discarded. I put ". /mnt/card/bin/zgcc.sh" in my ~/.bashrc file which is in turn executed from my ~/.profile

I tried this, and got "./mnt/card/bin/zgcc.sh: not found".  But the file is there, and I can run it without the . in front.  Does anyone have any ideas?  Thanks!

Do you have a space between the dot and the /mnt/card/bin/zgcc.sh? You need a space between them.

OMG...I'm so sorry.  Can you tell it was late and I was really tired?  *sigh*  Thanks.
