Hello, I am in the process of trying to install gcc 3.4.6. on SPARC solaris 8. I checked /usr/local/, /usr/local/bin and /usr/ccs/bin and gcc isn't present in either directory. I assume it isn't installed. Upon reading the documentation, I discovered this statement: "To use the gcc package from sunfreeware.com you MUST install all of the SUNW developer packages that come on Sun's Solaris CDs."
Question: How do I determine if of SUNW developer packages have been installed. Question regarding "gcc": It appears that I have to install previous versions of gcc. I am reading it correctly or do I simply have to make sure I have all the correct libraries? Here is what it says: "The software used to create gcc 3.4.6 (the steps are very similar for earlier versions of gcc) was all from packages on sunfreeware.com. These include the gcc-3.3.2, bison-1.875d, flex-2.5.31, texinfo-4.2, autoconf-2.59, make-3.80, and automake-1.9 packages. It may also be important to install the libiconv-1.8 package to use some of the languages in gcc 3.4.6. See also a comment below about the libgcc package."
