             Bug #: 54504
           Summary: Link failed when I move the GCC to another directory
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: gcc
           Version: 4.7.1
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: P3
         Component: c++
        AssignedTo: unassigned@gcc.gnu.org
        ReportedBy: progmei@163.com


When I move the Cross GCC to another directory, the link failed. This is a
requirement, our compilers are managed by Revision control, and the directory
is always changed。
And I can not choose the library use -L option also. The lib file is exist on
the origional directory.

It works for me.

How did you configure GCC?

So you are not using a sysroot?

This is a cross you really should be using a sysroot.

I use 4.7.x as a cross compiler with a sysroot and am able to move around GCC
all the time.

Because that is not the correct usage of sysroot.
You want a full sysroot under the prefix directory:
/repo/yuhuamei/mips-linux-eglibc-gnu/sysroot
And install the libc inside that directory.

How are you configuring glibc?  I think that is the problem here.
You should only configure glibc with --prefix=/usr .  And then install like:
make install install_root=${MY_PREFIX}/sysroot .

It's OK now. And I just have some qusetions.
If I can build the cross compiler support both soft/hard float big/little
endian? And how to compile this.
where can I get the related document on how to compile the cross gcc?
Thank you!
