I tried to build the gcc-3.2.1 rpm's from
gcc-3.2.1-2mdk.src.rpm
(using rpm -bb gcc.spec) and the build bombs out during
installation into /var/tmp/gcc-3.2.1-root/
Here are the final lines of the build:
+ ln -s /usr/include/libgcj-3.2.1
+/var/tmp/gcc-3.2.1-root/usr/lib/gcc-lib/athlon-mandrake-linux-gnu/3.2.1/include/libgcj
ln:
`/var/tmp/gcc-3.2.1-root/usr/lib/gcc-lib/athlon-mandrake-linux-gnu/3.2.1/include/libgcj':
File exists
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.86747 (%install)
RPM build errors:
Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.86747 (%install)
The problem is that there is already a file (link) in
/var/tmp/gcc-3.2.1-root/usr/lib/gcc-lib/athlon-mandrake-linux-gnu/3.2.1/include/
called `libgcj'. It points to `root/etc/alternatives/libgcj'
so when the above link is attempted, it fails.
Surely others have run across this? But I've not seen anything
mentioned. I just went over to the cooker archives for Dec. and see
nothing about this.
Any help will (of course) be appreciated.
