Installing gcc on 10.20b

[Henry Chua]

Hi Guys,

I am trying to install gcc compiler on my 10.20b. This is the first time I am attempting the installation. I have visited the site "https://www.beepz.com/personal/merijn/#Downloads" .. but am unsure which version of gcc i should download and how I should go about with the installation. Can anyone help me.. Thanks!!

Regards
Henry

You can download...

https://www.beepz.com/personal/merijn/gcc-3.4.3-32-10.20-hppa1.1.tbz

And install it...

bzip2 -d

You may not have bzip2 on your box, you can also download it from merjin's site.

download https://www.beepz.com/personal/merijn/bzip2-1.0.2-pa1.1 and save it somewhere like /usr/contrib/bin/bzip2 and chmod 755 bzip2. The run the command above to bunzip, tar the gcc files.

Hope this helps,

Can you please tell me what is unclear about the installation instructions, so I can change it:

--8<---
The 3.4.3 version of gcc available in the download section includes binutils 2.15 and gdb-6.2.1. I know that by the time I uploaded the builds gdb-6.3 was already out, but I'm having trouble building recent gdb's in 64bit mode so I postpone those to later, where I either replace the current builds or include it in the next gcc builds. Install it like this:

# cd /usr/local
# bzip2 -d < /var/tmp/gcc-3.4.3-64-11.00-elf64.tbz | tar xf -

And add /usr/local/pa20_64/bin to your $PATH, preferably in /etc/PATH.

bzip2 is the first download available in the Downloads section, and the most recent 10.20 port is gcc-3.4.3-32-10.20-hppa1.1.tbz

That would translate to, assumed you've downloaded the files to /tmp

# cd /usr/local/bin
# mv /tmp/bzip2-1.0.2-pa1.1 bzip2
# chmod 755 bzip2
# cd /usr/local
# /usr/local/bin/bzip2 -d # export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/pa11_32/bin
# gcc --version

Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn
