Moving installed gcc version to other path

Moving installed gcc version to other path

[Hard Maker]

Hi, I trying to move binary version of gcc from the installed path (this 
was defined throw --prefix at build time) to other path, but I want 
update the the search path of gcc to the new locations. How can I do? 
Wath files or options I need to write? Where can I read about?
This question is not just for linux, I'm trying to build gcc in linux 
for run under windows system using mingw and I don't know how can update 
the search paths for librarys.
Thank's very much

Sergio

I believe it should just work, gcc uses relative paths to find its own
binaries, libraries and executables.

You could also look into using 'make install DESTDIR=/some/other/path'
which installs everything to $DESTDIR/$prefix, instead of to $prefix,
so you can then package it up and move it to the final destination.
