Well, things are better. The thing (gcc) compiled and installed.
I now have two version of gcc on my computer:
-rwxr-xr-x 2 root root 216884 Feb 26 21:17 /usr/local/bin/gcc
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 203694 Dec 14 12:46 /usr/bin/gcc
I have a similar pair of files for g++.
Now, the old g++ won't compile things, giving a library error. This is
the entire reason for this exercise. The new g++ seems to work. My
problem is, when I try to configure abiword, the configure script only
tries the old version. So, I just renamed the old version to something
other than g++ or gcc, and the configure script finds the new versions
of gcc and g++. Is this kosher?
It is if your $PATH looks in /usr/bin before /usr/local/bin. You should prolly remove the older version of gcc completely, or you're going to run into alot of problems.
Anyway, the configure script now runs for abiword, but now I get the following
error during configure, which doesn't stop the configuration but stops the
make.
checking for jpeg_start_decompress in -ljpeg
gcc -o conftest conftest.c -ljpeg >&5 /usr/lib/libjpeg.so: undefined reference to `atexit@@GLIBC_2.0' This happens while it is configuring wv. This GLIBC_2.0 is suspicious, since
I have 2.2.5, I think.
Do I need a new jpg library? jpeg is a link to libjpeg.so.62.0.0
Looks like your libjpeg is compiled against glibc-2.0. You'll need to (re)build it against the new glibc. libjpeg is funny that way. be forwarned, anything that relies on libjpeg will also need to be rebuild, unless you want multiple copies of libjpeg on your box.
