During installation, everything goes to version specific directories.
Except libstdc++.a, which goes to /opt/lib overwriting any former library of the
same name. Of course one can work around that problem by copying that file next
to libgcc.a or fiddling with the configure options, but it is annoying to
recompile GCC 3.2 just because its libstdc++.a got overwritten.
Reading specs from /opt/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.4.0/specs
Configured with: ../configure --enable-shared --program-suffix=34
--disable-checking --with-arch=pentiumpro --prefix=/opt
--enable-languages=c,c++,f77 --enable-__cxa_atexit
Thread model: posix
gcc version 3.4.0 20040116 (experimental)

I just wonder why its off by default. I see no reason to want libstdc++.a in a different directory than libgcc.a . Its no big deal either and its probably not justified to call this behavior a bug. It was just an annoying surprise for me.

Also OS people install GCC as well and do not want --enable-version-specific-runtime-libs to be enabled by default. -- What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|WAITING |RESOLVED Resolution| |INVALID http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=13707 ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread
