Subject: [HPADM] SUMMARY gcc 2.7.2.2 on HP-UX 10.20

Dear all,

...
Well after a few days of head scratching and email writing I finally
managed to complete the installation of gcc 2.7.2.2. It is simplicity
itself (if you know what you are doing!)

1. Install GNU binutils-2.7
2. Install GNU sed-2.05 (HP sed
doesn't work properly)
3. Install gcc with the following commands:-
	make LANGUAGES="c"
	make stage1
	make CC="stage1/xgcc -Bstage1/" CFLAGS=" -02"
	make stage2
	make CC="stage2/xgcc -Bstage2/" CFLAGS=" -02"
	make compare

Now comes the clever bit because you think that you are home and dry, well
think again.

Unless you have GNU textinfo* installed you will get an error and (in my
case) everything will be installed manpages, g++ etc. but no gcc.

So you must type:-

	make -k install CC="stage2/xgcc -Bstage2/" CFLAGS=" -02"

The -k option skips over the "makeinfo" and "text2dvi" errors and complete
the installation of gcc.

THE END :-)
