Hello Again,

I retreived gcc-3.4.6.tar.gz and gunzip and untarred it. I completed the following commands:

cd gcc-3.4.6
mkdir objdir
cd objdir
../configure

Here is what I received:

loading cache ./config.cache
checking host system type... sparc-sun-solaris2.8
checking target system type... sparc-sun-solaris2.8
checking build system type... sparc-sun-solaris2.8
checking for a BSD compatible install... ./install-sh -c
/usr/ucb/cc: language optional software package not installed
*** The command 'cc -o conftest -g conftest.c' failed.
*** You must set the environment variable CC to a working compiler.

I tried the following command from the gcc.gnu.org installation page:

../configure --with-as=/usr/ccs/bin/as --with-ld=/usr/ccs/bin/ld --enable-share --enable-language-c

loading cache ./config.cache
checking host system type... sparc-sun-solaris2.8
checking target system type... sparc-sun-solaris2.8
checking build system type... sparc-sun-solaris2.8
checking for a BSD compatible install... ../install-sh -c
../configure: cc: not found
*** The command 'cc -o conftest -g conftest.c' failed.
*** You must set the environment variable CC to a working compiler.

I received the same results...What am I doing incorrectly? How do I set the environment variable CC to a working compiler?

You're having this problem becasue you are trying to compile the compiler, but you have no other compiler installed.

Go to sunfreeware.com and download the gcc package, then add it with pkgadd.

Greetings Reborg,

Just to clarify, I can install all packages that have .tar.gz with pkgadd. I was under the impression that in order to install packages with pkgadd, the term "pkgadd" must appear in the bundled software name. ex: "software.pkgadd" The package I retrieved was from sunfreeware. I checked again and there isn't a package with pkgadd in the name.

Thanks.

you need to gunzip the .gz you then will have a file called

<something>-local

pkgadd -d <something>-local

the name has nothing whatsoever to do with it. All of the main links are packages on sunfreeware.

I am having issues with gcc on Solaris as well
Here is what I have installed with pkgadd...

$ pkginfo | grep SMC
application SMCgcc gcc
application SMCliconv libiconv
application SMClintl libintl


The packages were:

libiconv-1.9.2-sol8-sparc-local
libintl-3.4.0-sol8-sparc-local
gcc-3.4.6-sol8-sparc-local


Do I need anything else?

Anyway, here is my test program:

Code:
#include <stdio.h>

main()
{
        printf("hello\n");
}

Here is what happens when I try to compile it:

Code:
$ gcc test.c -o test
In file included from test.c:1:
/usr/local/lib/gcc/sparc-sun-solaris2.8/3.4.6/include/stdio.h:36:27: iso/stdio_iso.h: No such file or directory

Smilie

Anybody know what's wrong here?

Thanks.

Hello Lyonsd,

I also installed openssl-0.9.8d-sol8-sparc-local. I installed all of those to get pkg-get and wget installed and running. It is my understanding that pkg-get downloads and compiles everything for you, but I am very new to all of this...I could be wrong. I googled your problem and found this website: http://www.openldap.org/lists/openld...dex.html#00426
Look at the "RE: Newbie - Simple? installation problem"
