I'm trying to install Octave, which means I need a Fortran compiler, so I was installing GCC.
I have all of the dependencies installed (I think; I have GMP, MPFR and MPC), and running './configure' seemed to work fine, but when I ran 'make' I got a cryptic error message:
Code: Select all
checking for suffix of object files... configure: error: in `/home/user/Downloads/gcc-4.8.1/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/libgcc':
configure: error: cannot compute suffix of object files: cannot compile
See `config.log' for more details.
make[2]: *** [configure-stage1-target-libgcc] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/user/Downloads/gcc-4.8.1'
make[1]: *** [stage1-bubble] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/user/Downloads/gcc-4.8.1'
make: *** [all] Error 2
I don't want to copy-paste the whole thing unless I have to, because it's enormous and there's (to my knowledge) no way to wrap text in spoiler tabs on this board.
EDIT: Apparently, .logs and .txts can't be attached, so I don't know what file type I need to convert it to in order to attach it.
