gcc -mno-cygwin fails

gcc -mno-cygwin fails

[Gregory C. Sharp]

Following up with recent problems noted about g77 -mno-cygwin, 
the same problem occurs for gcc.

I am using the newest packages:  gcc-3.3.1-2, gcc-mingw-20030911-2

$ gcc foo.c
$ gcc -mno-cygwin foo.c
gcc: installation problem, cannot exec `cc1': No such file or directory
$ 

Any workaround is appreciated.

Regards,
Greg

Make some symlinks in the directory:
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-mingw/3.3.1/
to all the executables in this directory:
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-cygwin/3.3.1/

as it was in 3.2-x:
$ ls -l /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-mingw32/3.2

PLEASE DO NOT DO THIS!

If there is a problem in the packaging then we fix the packaging.  We don't
give advice on how to work around the packaging.

Cheesh.

In this case, it seems like the gcc-mingw package wasn't actually installed.
If standard problem reporting procedures had been employed (attaching cygcheck
output), we would know this for sure.

Did you install the "gcc-mingw" package?

I have gcc-mingw-20030911-2, which "setup" lists as the most recent.

 From Gerrit's suggestion about symlinks, I try this...

 > /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-mingw/3.3.1/

But I don't even have a /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-mingw/3.3.1 directory!

$ pwd
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-mingw32
$ ls
3.2
$

So I am thinking that downgrading to gcc package 3.2-3 will fix it.
Let's try...

$ gcc foo.c
$ gcc -mno-cygwin foo.c
$

Wow, great!  Thanks for the hints to get gcc working again!!

One last question, I'm always interested in trying the latest
packages, so is there a gcc-mingw that matches the gcc 3.3.1?

I believe both I and Gerrit made a typo in the directory name.  It should
be /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-mingw32 (not i686-pc-mingw).

Doesn't look like you have gcc-mingw-20030911-2 installed.

There is (gcc-mingw-20030911-2), but it's apparently broken.  Following
Gerrit's suggestions (substituting i686-pc-mingw32 for i686-pc-mingw)
should give you a working 3.3.1 gcc-mingw.

Hmmm, interesting comment.  So I use "setup" to "reinstall"
gcc-mingw-20030911-2, now I get this:

$ pwd
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-mingw32
$ ls
3.2  3.3.1

Could be a "setup" related problem?

Thank you for all the help and advice.  You guys are awesome
(and so is cygwin)!
