OK, understood. It is unusual to bootstrap Debian from source, but it is more usual to bootstrap it from binaries[1] with a tool called debootstrap. But anyway, if you are trying to bootstrap gcc from source (exactly same thing i am pursuing but in a cross from) on a native system, you might have to: $ apt-get source gcc-4.4 $ cd gcc-4.4-* $ BOOTSTRAP=lean dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -rfakeroot (please make sure of that, BOOTSTRAP variable accepts 3 different values, i am not sure which one is the one you need) Then you explain us what happend because this might be half way implemented I have never tested bootstrapping a native compiler.
