hi all-
after installing gcc with the latest setup.exe i receive this error
message when running gcc:
$ gcc
gcc: /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-cygwin/3.3.1/specs: No such file or directory
as such, make becomes completely unusable as do most configure scripts.
i discovered /lib is mounted on /usr/lib from the faq. ls can see the
file but gcc cannot. i attempted uninstalling and reinstalling without
success. http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2004-05/msg00963.html
seemed in the same vein, but i don't believe this is a missing install
issue.
I think you may have hit on the "trailing slash in mount" problem. Try
issuing the following commands:
mount -s -b "c:/cygwin" "/"
mount -s -b "c:/cygwin/bin" "/usr/bin"
mount -s -b "c:/cygwin/lib" "/usr/lib"
and see if it helps.
