Disclaimer: I've used GNU tools when they compile out of the box, but I'm not terribly knowledgeable about some standard UNIX/GNU things like tweaking library paths. If my question is stupid, please direct me to a good resource where I can teach myself.
== My client needs to install aspell as the underlying engine for some PHP-based spell-checking. I tried to compile out of the box but failed because my client's hosting service has a gcc version "egcs-2.91.66". Since 2.95 is required this is insufficient, and apparently the hosting company isn't willing to upgrade. I can build aspell 0.60.5 just fine on my own server. How much work is required to port it from one Linux server to another? I tried doing this earlier and got bogged down in trying to tweak the paths in the wrapper scripts to match the new host. But perhaps I was somehow making this harder than it should be. What's the minimum amount of copying I can do to get working aspell binaries on my destination server?
