These are quite preliminary at the moment, but we are working on getting out more uptodate packages. The most valuable package on this site is the dejagnu-RPM (Thanks Elliott ;-) ). My current status is: - gas/binutils snapshot 971102, built as RPM (BTW, can one safely ignore the "run libtool --finish" message during "make install_root=/tmp/gas install"?). I haven't tried building with --enable-shared yet, cause my last version 970915 still failed during install with this option turned on. I will try to arrange something with Elliott and put the RPM on FTP. - egcs-971031, still a pain to build, needs a lot of unofficial patches from Geoffrey Keating, on a standard out-of-the-box Linux/PPC installation (libc-0.961212) compiling still fails during libio, complaining about a missing stdio-lock.h. Also the new libg++-2.8.0b6.3 fails during configure (while symlinking regex.h / rx.h ?). Ciao, Franz.
