Hey folks. I'm trying to compile a program that I downloaded, but I'm encountering some errors when I try to ./configure it. Here is the error message I get when I try to run configure.
Code:
Core dumps disabled.
checking for gcc... gcc
checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) works... no
configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C compiler cannot create executables.
Okay... so I look into config.log to check that out, and this is what I find.
Code:
This file contains any messages produced by compilers while
running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.
configure:863: checking for gcc
configure:976: checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) works
configure:992: gcc -o conftest conftest.c 1>&5
/usr/bin/ld: crt1.o: No such file: No such file or directory
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
configure: failed program was:
#line 987 "configure"
#include "confdefs.h"
main(){return(0);}
I am not quite sure what to do at this point. I am running Debian, and I have the following gcc packages:
gcc
gcc-3.3
gcc-3.3-base
libgcc1
The program I am trying to compile, by the way, is Tinyfugue. Since I can't post a URL yet (No 5 posts), do a google search of "tinyfugue" and you'll get to the site. The one I downloaded was tf-50b6.tar.gz. Unpacking it was not a problem.
So, any help or advice to lead me into the right direction is much appreciated. If you need additional information regarding this problem, just ask in the post and I'll answer it. Thanks in advance guys.
