Subject: Problem building gcc 4.9.2
Date: Mon, 11 Aug 2014 14:30:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CABQJvpnxweiXRJnMF3qQuZVT-wURM4XxK-Yps6jLOtMaayZhYg@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

After a fresh install on Linux Mint 17 (64-bit) I am attempting to build
the latest gcc using the following (which has worked in the past):-

cd gcc-4.9.1
contrib/download_prerequisites
mkdir obj
cd obj
../configure --disable-multilib

The configure ends with the following:-
...
checking where to find the target readelf... host tool
checking where to find the target strip... host tool
checking where to find the target windres... host tool
checking where to find the target windmc... host tool
checking whether to enable maintainer-specific portions of Makefiles... no
configure: creating ./config.status
/bin/bash: _tar: line 12: syntax error near unexpected token `('
/bin/bash: _tar: line 12: ` ?(-)*[cr]*f)'
/bin/bash: error importing function definition for `_tar'
config.status: creating Makefile
/tmp/gcc-4.9.1/obj*

What am I doing wrong, or what is missing?

The current compiler (that came with Mint 17) is:-

/tmp/gcc-4.9.1/obj* gcc -v
Using built-in specs.
