- I should explain myself more clearly. I am installing gcc 2.3.3 on
- a SUN os 4.1.1 in a directory other than /usr/lib. Lets call the
- directory /foo. This was complished by editing the Makefile generated
- by configure so prefix = /foo. The problem this causes is that gcc then
- looks for libc.a in /foo/lib according to the -v option on gcc. -v does
- not tell me (at least I cannot see it) where the include files are
- looked for.
-
- I realize that I can instruct gcc to search the host lib and include
- file by the -L and -I options. i.e.
-
- gcc -L/usr/lib -I/usr/include
-
- but I would prefer to have /usr/lib and /usr/include
- as the default paths used by the gcc compiler
- rather than /foo/lib and /foo/include. How do I go about modifying the
- Makefile so this is the case?
-
- Thanks in advance.
