GCC error cannot compute suffix of object files
 

Hi there!
I have puppy linux and I'm trying to install gcc following the instructions on http://www.nongnu.org/avr-libc/user-...nstall_avr_gcc
But I have an error, the config.log file has many errors like the following:
configure:3938: result: no
configure:3944: checking whether g++ accepts -g
configure:3965: g++ -c -g conftest.cc >&5
g++: error trying to exec '/usr/libexec/gcc/i486-slackware-linux/4.1.2/cc1plus': execv: Exec format error
configure:3971: $? = 1
configure: failed program was:
| /* confdefs.h. */
|
| #define PACKAGE_NAME ""
| #define PACKAGE_TARNAME ""
| #define PACKAGE_VERSION ""
| #define PACKAGE_STRING ""
| #define PACKAGE_BUGREPORT ""
| /* end confdefs.h. */
|
int
| main ()
| {
|
| ;
| return 0;
| }
configure:3995: result: no
Any help would be very appreciated.
Thanks

Welcome to Linux Questions.

Puppy is probably not the best fit for a
developing system.
I can suggest "Vector Linux" based on
Slackware and also being a lightweight
distro.
I can see you are already using a Slackware
package ( .. /gcc/i486-slackware-linux/ ) ?
Or is it part of puppy ?

The link shown
http://www.nongnu.org/avr-libc/user-...nstall_avr_gcc
is about building cross tools for
"Atmel AVR microcontrollers"
http://www.nongnu.org/avr-libc/

Is that what you are attempting to do ??
