Minor SS issue...

[Peter Seebach]

Is there a point in egcs-ss-970814 extracting into
	egcs-ss-970814/egcs-ss-970814
?

gcc installation

[Thomas Weise]

Hi,

so far I've installed snapshot egcs-ss-970814 successfully, and this
is not a bug report for gcc itself. But can someone please tell me,
why (1) there will  be no configuration spec installed (on Linux
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i586-pc-linux-gnulibc1/egcs-2.90.00/specs) and whether
(2) g++ seems to be no longer supported (I know that it just calls gcc,
however I've installed both languages, c AND c++).

Apart from this I'm really impressed. All  of the C++ bugs I've had on my
list have been fixed (and there were a few). I'm wondering why this
version shouldn't be better than the broken 2.7.2 (at least some FSF
people might belief this..)

Thomas.

Huh?

% gzcat *.gz | tar vtf -
drwxrws--- law/cygnus        0 Aug 15 15:42 1997 ./egcs-ss-970814/
-rw-rw---- law/cygnus   176520 Aug 15 11:55 1997 ./egcs-ss-970814/ChangeLog.10

Did you make a directory called egcs-ss-970814, then cd into it,
then extract the snapshot?
