GCC,"/usr/src/gcc-4.4.5/configure" No such file or directory

[Cervby]

I'm trying to create a GCC Cross-Compiler and I followed the tutorial at http://wiki.osdev.org/GCC_Cross-Compiler#gcc.

When I run:

Code: Select all

../gcc-4.4.5/configure --target=$TARGET --prefix=$PREFIX --disable-nls     --enable-languages=c,c++ --without-headers

I get the error:

Code: Select all

bash: ../gcc-4.4.5/configure: No such file or directory

(It's translated from Swedish, it originaly said):

Code: Select all

bash: ../gcc-4.4.5/configure: Filen eller katalogen finns inte

I looked in the directory "/usr/src/gcc-4.4.5" and I don't have any file or directory called "configure". What is it and how do I get it?

What do you mean by that?

"It must be user error"

Either you did something stupid (history has it that "not reading" happens to be quite the typical one - hint hint), or something is actually not your fault but you're not well versed enough in formulating a proper bug report.

Choose one, wisely, and fix it.

I think you can be fairly sure that there isn't a fault in the gcc source files. Untar the tarball again and start over.

I redownloaded it and configure and a lot of other different files and folders that wasn't there before are there now, so I must've downloaded the wrong file or something.
