zlib broken in CVS

zlib broken in CVS

[Jamie Lokier]

Hi,

I just updated to the latest from CVS, did
  ./configure --prefix=/usr/local i386-redhat-linux
and got this error message:

creating ./config.status
creating Makefile
./config.status: ./..//../config-ml.in: No such file or directory
Configure in /temp/cvs-gcc/gcc/zlib failed, exiting.

What's up?  (I have only checked out the gcc module of course).

thanks,
-- Jamie

   Hi,


   I found this message in the mailing list archive. It describes
exactly the problem that I have on my machine but nobody answered to
this message and AFAIK there has been no change there in CVS.
   So what's up?

   Currently I get by with the following, very incorrect, patch.
Unfortunately I really don't know enough about the gcc build process
and not enough time to learn to have a hope of finding the right
fix. Hopefully someone knows what to do.
