GCC Installation Failure?

0 votes
210 views

I have compiled gcc4.4.7 versio. The installation seems to be OK but there is no creation of the bin directory on the path that I had processed in building!

In particular there is no creation of the gcc binary! Any suggestion what to look for...

You need to configure with --prefix= and while install it will place the binary in that folder. I think you have not used --prefix and the binaries were installed in default /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin.

Is there a way to install the kernel man pages (section 9) in ubuntu? In fedora, running "yum install kernel-doc" install them.

In Ubuntu, I tried:

apt-get install kernel-doc
Reading package lists... Done

Error: Unable to locate package kernel-doc

Why, when installing a new app do we need to also install the -libs and the -devel if the app is needed to make another app work.

Why cannot -libs be part of the installation if they are that important to the operation. Why are -devel, which I'm guessing are development files for the app needed, does this mean the app is bar minimum and cannot be used when required by another app.
