|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|

|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>Now that GCC has been built (and optionally tested), you can install it with
|
|
</p><div class="smallexample">
|
|
<pre class="smallexample">cd <var>objdir</var> && make install
|
|
</pre></div>
|
|
|
|
<p>We strongly recommend to install into a target directory where there is
|
|
no previous version of GCC present. Also, the GNAT runtime should not
|
|
be stripped, as this would break certain features of the debugger that
|
|
depend on this debugging information (catching Ada exceptions for
|
|
instance).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>That step completes the installation of GCC; user level binaries can
|
|
be found in <samp><var>prefix</var>/bin</samp> where <var>prefix</var> is the value
|
|
you specified with the <samp>--prefix</samp> to configure (or
|
|
<samp>/usr/local</samp> by default). (If you specified <samp>--bindir</samp>,
|
|
that directory will be used instead; otherwise, if you specified
|
|
<samp>--exec-prefix</samp>, <samp><var>exec-prefix</var>/bin</samp> will be used.)
|
|
Headers for the C++ library are installed in
|
|
<samp><var>prefix</var>/include</samp>; libraries in <samp><var>libdir</var></samp>
|
|
(normally <samp><var>prefix</var>/lib</samp>); internal parts of the compiler in
|
|
<samp><var>libdir</var>/gcc</samp> and <samp><var>libexecdir</var>/gcc</samp>; documentation
|
|
in info format in <samp><var>infodir</var></samp> (normally
|
|
<samp><var>prefix</var>/info</samp>).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>When installing cross-compilers, GCC’s executables
|
|
are not only installed into <samp><var>bindir</var></samp>, that
|
|
is, <samp><var>exec-prefix</var>/bin</samp>, but additionally into
|
|
<samp><var>exec-prefix</var>/<var>target-alias</var>/bin</samp>, if that directory
|
|
exists. Typically, such <em>tooldirs</em> hold target-specific
|
|
binutils, including assembler and linker.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Installation into a temporary staging area or into a <code>chroot</code>
|
|
jail can be achieved with the command
|
|
</p>
|
|
<div class="smallexample">
|
|
<pre class="smallexample">make DESTDIR=<var>path-to-rootdir</var> install
|
|
</pre></div>
|
|
|
|
<p>where <var>path-to-rootdir</var> is the absolute path of
|
|
a directory relative to which all installation paths will be
|
|
interpreted. Note that the directory specified by <code>DESTDIR</code>
|
|
need not exist yet; it will be created if necessary.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>There is a subtle point with tooldirs and <code>DESTDIR</code>:
|
|
If you relocate a cross-compiler installation with
|
|
e.g. ‘<samp>DESTDIR=<var>rootdir</var></samp>’, then the directory
|
|
<samp><var>rootdir</var>/<var>exec-prefix</var>/<var>target-alias</var>/bin</samp> will
|
|
be filled with duplicated GCC executables only if it already exists,
|
|
it will not be created otherwise. This is regarded as a feature,
|
|
not as a bug, because it gives slightly more control to the packagers
|
|
using the <code>DESTDIR</code> feature.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>You can install stripped programs and libraries with
|
|
</p>
|
|
<div class="smallexample">
|
|
<pre class="smallexample">make install-strip
|
|
</pre></div>
|
|
|
|
<p>If you are bootstrapping a released version of GCC then please
|
|
quickly review the build status page for your release, available from
|
|
<a href="http://gcc.gnu.org/buildstat.html">http://gcc.gnu.org/buildstat.html</a>.
|
|
If your system is not listed for the version of GCC that you built,
|
|
send a note to
|
|
<a href="mailto:gcc@gcc.gnu.org">gcc@gcc.gnu.org</a> indicating
|
|
that you successfully built and installed GCC.
|
|
Include the following information:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li> Output from running <samp><var>srcdir</var>/config.guess</samp>. Do not send
|
|
that file itself, just the one-line output from running it.
|
|
|
|
</li><li> The output of ‘<samp>gcc -v</samp>’ for your newly installed <code>gcc</code>.
|
|
This tells us which version of GCC you built and the options you passed to
|
|
configure.
|
|
|
|
</li><li> Whether you enabled all languages or a subset of them. If you used a
|
|
full distribution then this information is part of the configure
|
|
options in the output of ‘<samp>gcc -v</samp>’, but if you downloaded the
|
|
“core” compiler plus additional front ends then it isn’t apparent
|
|
which ones you built unless you tell us about it.
|
|
|
|
</li><li> If the build was for GNU/Linux, also include:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li> The distribution name and version (e.g., Red Hat 7.1 or Debian 2.2.3);
|
|
this information should be available from <samp>/etc/issue</samp>.
|
|
|
|
</li><li> The version of the Linux kernel, available from ‘<samp>uname --version</samp>’
|
|
or ‘<samp>uname -a</samp>’.
|
|
|
|
</li><li> The version of glibc you used; for RPM-based systems like Red Hat,
|
|
Mandrake, and SuSE type ‘<samp>rpm -q glibc</samp>’ to get the glibc version,
|
|
and on systems like Debian and Progeny use ‘<samp>dpkg -l libc6</samp>’.
|
|
</li></ul>
|
|
<p>For other systems, you can include similar information if you think it is
|
|
relevant.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</li><li> Any other information that you think would be useful to people building
|
|
GCC on the same configuration. The new entry in the build status list
|
|
will include a link to the archived copy of your message.
|
|
</li></ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>We’d also like to know if the
|
|
<a href="specific.html">host/target specific installation notes</a>
|
|
didn’t include your host/target information or if that information is
|
|
incomplete or out of date. Send a note to
|
|
<a href="mailto:gcc@gcc.gnu.org">gcc@gcc.gnu.org</a> detailing how the information should be changed.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>If you find a bug, please report it following the
|
|
<a href="../bugs/">bug reporting guidelines</a>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>If you want to print the GCC manuals, do ‘<samp>cd <var>objdir</var>; make
|
|
dvi</samp>’. You will need to have <code>texi2dvi</code> (version at least 4.7)
|
|
and TeX installed. This creates a number of <samp>.dvi</samp> files in
|
|
subdirectories of <samp><var>objdir</var></samp>; these may be converted for
|
|
printing with programs such as <code>dvips</code>. Alternately, by using
|
|
‘<samp>make pdf</samp>’ in place of ‘<samp>make dvi</samp>’, you can create documentation
|
|
in the form of <samp>.pdf</samp> files; this requires <code>texi2pdf</code>, which
|
|
is included with Texinfo version 4.8 and later. You can also
|
|
<a href="https://shop.fsf.org/">buy printed manuals from the
|
|
Free Software Foundation</a>, though such manuals may not be for the most
|
|
recent version of GCC.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>If you would like to generate online HTML documentation, do ‘<samp>cd
|
|
<var>objdir</var>; make html</samp>’ and HTML will be generated for the gcc manuals in
|
|
<samp><var>objdir</var>/gcc/HTML</samp>.
