GCC + Debian

[sr.lucas]

Hi all,
I´m trying to compile the ps2toolchain ((newtoolchain-20060222.tgz) under debian (testing/unstable)
and i am getting this output:

ERROR: Error!

The GCC version is the following:
gcc version 4.0.3 20051201 (prerelease) (Debian 4.0.2-5), so i guess there is a problem with using gcc3.2.2 to compile ee...

any ideas? I am kind of lost and don´t really know where to go from here....

GCC 4.x has issues building a GCC 3.x toolchain.

You'll need to install an older host toolchain first. I'm sure you can apt-get it quickly enough, and yes, you can have both GCC 3.x and GCC 4.x installed side by side on the same system....

thanks a lot!

i got a lot bunch of errors but i finally made it work!!!!
you pointed me out in the right direction!

[sr.lucas]

doh!
Had to reinstall my notebook from scratch and decided that ubuntu was the way to go. Trying to recompile the toolchain throws new errors!..
I´m getting more and more lost!.. :(

any ideas?

my CC variable is the following

lgonzalez@anakin:~/newtoolchain$ echo $CC
/usr/bin/gcc-3.3

and the gcc-3.3 is in /usr/bin so I´m not sure what it is that is not working...

I had this same error using xubuntu.

It seems that is a missing package not installed by default.

just type :

apt-get install libc6-dev

and problem solved.

BTW : I found the answer here :

Using 'apt-get build-essential' is a nicer way to get the tools you need for building stuff.

The latest patch also lets you build the toolchain on gcc-4.x now.

ooPo meant: apt-get install build-essential

How about 'sudo apt-get install build-essential' then? :)
