EGCS upgrade?

EGCS upgrade?

[Beecher Greenman]

I tried upgrading to EGCS 1.0.3 using the RPM on biggi.linuxppc.org. It 
didn't work, so I tried uninstalling it and reinstalling with the 
original RPM's, but that appears to have fried my libstdc++, which among 
other things keeps Netscape from working. I'm trying to upgrade EGCS as 
high as I can, since I want to try running Kernel 2.2.1 (anyone have a 
prebuilt kernel out there, by any chance?)

Compiiling from the Cygnus sources for 1.1.1 didn't seem to work; there 
were more than a few errors when I tried (and that's really a shame; I 
was reading that 750 support was just added and I wanted to try that one 
out).

Anyway, what's the best way to upgrade my EGCS installation past the 1.0 
on biggi? For that matter, where can I find another copy of libstdc++; I 
didn't see any RPM's on biggi that might have it. Thanks!

I keep regular updates at

Check the latest out via anon cvs :)

Cort, 

are you able to build the latest cvs-egcs on ppc? I can compile it using
egcs-1.1.1 (Gary's patched version), but bootstrap fails due to internal
compiler errors. This is the situation since around December 12. Do you
have any special tricks?

Is vger back up now? I just tried it last night, and it refused my
connection.

it's at egcs.cygnus.com, not vger.

I think I misread the first message, I thought the cvs connection you were
talking about was for the kernel not egcs. Sorry about that.

OK, an update. I managed to find the patched EGCS upgrade RPM's from 
gary's section of the linuxppc.org ftp site. I installed them (and most 
of the other stuff in there) and it all works fine.

Problem is, I still can't find any libstdc++ anywhere on my hard drive. 
Lots of symlinks to it, to be sure (actually they're all looking for 
libstdc++.so.2.8.0) but no library itself. Any clues on where to find it? 
Might I be able to compile it out of the egcs-1.1.1 sources without any 
trouble (my guess is no)? Not being able to use Netscape is beginning to 
get annoying...

On an unrelated topic, I've noticed that about half the time I try to 
shut down, I get a message saying "/ is busy" when the system tries to 
umnount it. This, of course, makes fsck VERY unhappy when I try to 
reboot, and I have to sit and listen to it whine (it only ever finds one 
error; a single deleted inode with zero dtime, and it's always the same 
one, which is fine when rebooting if the unmount succeeded before). Any 
idea on what might be causing that one? Thanks!
