./configure error
 
Hi, when i try to configure something i always get such error:

# ./configure
configure: error: C preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check

What can i do?

kodon 05-09-2006 06:22 PM

afaik the most common reason
to fail the sanity check
is missing kernel headers

The closest mirror to you is probably here...

ftp://ftp.slackware.lt/pub/Linux/sla....31-i386-1.tgz

Save it to disk and install it using installpkg.

I'm just wondering... did you ever get your fonts fixed?

Hondro 05-10-2006 09:27 AM

Yes i have fixed my fonts :)

I have installed kernel-headers but i still get the same error.
Help me?

Is the C compiler installed? The package name is gcc-3.3.6-i486-1.tgz.

willysr 05-10-2006 10:02 PM

don't forget to install gcc-g++ also

I needed to reinstall the old kernel headers again and i'm cross posting here hopefully saving somebody some time ;)
