I'd guess the best way to handle this bug is to reconfigure after stage1.  For
that it would probably be best to wait for Nathaniel's toplevel bootstrap patches.

Meanwhile, as a workaround you can configure --with-libiconv-prefix=<directory>
where <directory> contains ./include/iconv.h and ./lib/libiconv.{a,so}.

This looks like this not never be fixed for 3.3.x, right?

As far as I know this was not fixed. I tried building gcc-3.3-20030508 and
had the problem. I haven't touched it since then.

I also submitted another enhancement request that would solve this
problem. It was to allow us to specify a "library/include directory" which
would be pushed down through the process of making gcc and become part of
the "specs" file also.

This would be similar to the libiconv switch but more general.

Toplevel bootstrap is not going in for 3.4, so this is not mine ATM.

Not a bug, set LD_LIBRARY_PATH right.

Subject: Re:  [3.3 regression] java section can not find libiconv


My goal in life is to never set LD_LIBRARY_PATH. I have anyone of hundreds of
people who may use what I build. I would like only to say run /path/bin/gcc
rather then set some number of environment variables which may break other
things that they are doing.

I have had a terrible time in getting bootstrapped on Solaris 2.5.1 and
Solaris 8. I have no access as ROOT or to /usr/local on these systems.

It sure would be useful if someone could write up a procedure on how to 

1. start with a downloaded precompiled binary or Sun's compiler.

2. Build a gcc/binutils/libiconv/gettext that resides somewhere other then
   /usr/local, find the libraries mentioned in step3, and require no special
   environment variables to be set.

   This combination is interesting since there is dependancies in multiple
   directions.

3. Build other library modules (ncurses,zlib,db, etc) and install them in a
   central location that gcc knows about. I would rather do this then put
   stuff into gcc's tree to prevent breaking it accidently.


The instructions in the installation notes seem only to work properly if
there is a system of gnu software installed already.

Sorry but you will need to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH unless you add -R to all your compiling of your 
programs in the nonstandard path.

Andrew,

I think there is a valid complaint here, though it will not be fixed for 3.4,
and is probably not a regression either.

configure is detecting and using libiconv based on the bootstrap compiler's
settings.  This fails in stage2 when the bootstrap compiler is no longer used. 
There are workarounds, you mentioned LD_LIBRARY_PATH and -R.  Or uninstall
libiconv from the bootstrap compiler's path.  Or install it first in ${prefix}.

Nevertheless it's bogus of configure to do this, and completely preventable when
bootstrap moves to toplevel (so stage2 can reconfigure following bootstrap).  I
think it should be kept open, perhaps at lower priority.

Is there a PR you know of for toplevel bootstrap?  If so, this one could depend
on it.
