+
+
+
+
+
+

+

+
+
+
+<p>Now that GCC has been built (and optionally tested), you can install it with
+</p><div class="smallexample">
+<pre class="smallexample">cd <var>objdir</var> &amp;&amp; make install
+</pre></div>
+
+<p>We strongly recommend to install into a target directory where there is
+no previous version of GCC present. Also, the GNAT runtime should not
+be stripped, as this would break certain features of the debugger that
+depend on this debugging information (catching Ada exceptions for
+instance).
+</p>
+<p>That step completes the installation of GCC; user level binaries can
+be found in <samp><var>prefix</var>/bin</samp> where <var>prefix</var> is the value
+you specified with the <samp>--prefix</samp> to configure (or
+<samp>/usr/local</samp> by default). (If you specified <samp>--bindir</samp>,
+that directory will be used instead; otherwise, if you specified
+<samp>--exec-prefix</samp>, <samp><var>exec-prefix</var>/bin</samp> will be used.)
+Headers for the C++ and Java libraries are installed in
+<samp><var>prefix</var>/include</samp>; libraries in <samp><var>libdir</var></samp>
+(normally <samp><var>prefix</var>/lib</samp>); internal parts of the compiler in
+<samp><var>libdir</var>/gcc</samp> and <samp><var>libexecdir</var>/gcc</samp>; documentation
+in info format in <samp><var>infodir</var></samp> (normally
+<samp><var>prefix</var>/info</samp>).
+</p>
+<p>When installing cross-compilers, GCC&rsquo;s executables
+are not only installed into <samp><var>bindir</var></samp>, that
+is, <samp><var>exec-prefix</var>/bin</samp>, but additionally into
+<samp><var>exec-prefix</var>/<var>target-alias</var>/bin</samp>, if that directory
+exists. Typically, such <em>tooldirs</em> hold target-specific
+binutils, including assembler and linker.
+</p>
+<p>Installation into a temporary staging area or into a <code>chroot</code>
+jail can be achieved with the command
+</p>
+<div class="smallexample">
+<pre class="smallexample">make DESTDIR=<var>path-to-rootdir</var> install
+</pre></div>
+
+<p>where <var>path-to-rootdir</var> is the absolute path of
+a directory relative to which all installation paths will be
+interpreted. Note that the directory specified by <code>DESTDIR</code>
+need not exist yet; it will be created if necessary.
+</p>
+<p>There is a subtle point with tooldirs and <code>DESTDIR</code>:
+If you relocate a cross-compiler installation with
+e.g. &lsquo;<samp>DESTDIR=<var>rootdir</var></samp>&rsquo;, then the directory
+<samp><var>rootdir</var>/<var>exec-prefix</var>/<var>target-alias</var>/bin</samp> will
+be filled with duplicated GCC executables only if it already exists,
+it will not be created otherwise. This is regarded as a feature,
+not as a bug, because it gives slightly more control to the packagers
+using the <code>DESTDIR</code> feature.
+</p>
+<p>You can install stripped programs and libraries with
+</p>
+<div class="smallexample">
+<pre class="smallexample">make install-strip
+</pre></div>
+
+<p>If you are bootstrapping a released version of GCC then please
+quickly review the build status page for your release, available from
+<a href="http://gcc.gnu.org/buildstat.html">http://gcc.gnu.org/buildstat.html</a>.
+If your system is not listed for the version of GCC that you built,
+send a note to
+<a href="mailto:gcc@gcc.gnu.org">gcc@gcc.gnu.org</a> indicating
+that you successfully built and installed GCC.
+Include the following information:
+</p>
+<ul>
+<li> Output from running <samp><var>srcdir</var>/config.guess</samp>. Do not send
+that file itself, just the one-line output from running it.
+
+</li><li> The output of &lsquo;<samp>gcc -v</samp>&rsquo; for your newly installed <code>gcc</code>.
+This tells us which version of GCC you built and the options you passed to
+configure.
+
+</li><li> Whether you enabled all languages or a subset of them. If you used a
+full distribution then this information is part of the configure
+options in the output of &lsquo;<samp>gcc -v</samp>&rsquo;, but if you downloaded the
+&ldquo;core&rdquo; compiler plus additional front ends then it isn&rsquo;t apparent
+which ones you built unless you tell us about it.
+
+</li><li> If the build was for GNU/Linux, also include:
+<ul>
+<li> The distribution name and version (e.g., Red Hat 7.1 or Debian 2.2.3);
+this information should be available from <samp>/etc/issue</samp>.
+
+</li><li> The version of the Linux kernel, available from &lsquo;<samp>uname --version</samp>&rsquo;
+or &lsquo;<samp>uname -a</samp>&rsquo;.
+
+</li><li> The version of glibc you used; for RPM-based systems like Red Hat,
+Mandrake, and SuSE type &lsquo;<samp>rpm -q glibc</samp>&rsquo; to get the glibc version,
+and on systems like Debian and Progeny use &lsquo;<samp>dpkg -l libc6</samp>&rsquo;.
+</li></ul>
+<p>For other systems, you can include similar information if you think it is
+relevant.
+</p>
+</li><li> Any other information that you think would be useful to people building
+GCC on the same configuration. The new entry in the build status list
+will include a link to the archived copy of your message.
+</li></ul>
+
+<p>We&rsquo;d also like to know if the
+<a href="specific.html">host/target specific installation notes</a>
+didn&rsquo;t include your host/target information or if that information is
+incomplete or out of date. Send a note to
+<a href="mailto:gcc@gcc.gnu.org">gcc@gcc.gnu.org</a> detailing how the information should be changed.
+</p>
+<p>If you find a bug, please report it following the
+<a href="../bugs/">bug reporting guidelines</a>.
+</p>
+<p>If you want to print the GCC manuals, do &lsquo;<samp>cd <var>objdir</var>; make
+dvi</samp>&rsquo;. You will need to have <code>texi2dvi</code> (version at least 4.7)
+and TeX installed. This creates a number of <samp>.dvi</samp> files in
+subdirectories of <samp><var>objdir</var></samp>; these may be converted for
+printing with programs such as <code>dvips</code>. Alternately, by using
+&lsquo;<samp>make pdf</samp>&rsquo; in place of &lsquo;<samp>make dvi</samp>&rsquo;, you can create documentation
+in the form of <samp>.pdf</samp> files; this requires <code>texi2pdf</code>, which
+is included with Texinfo version 4.8 and later. You can also
+<a href="http://shop.fsf.org/">buy printed manuals from the
+Free Software Foundation</a>, though such manuals may not be for the most
+recent version of GCC.
+</p>
+<p>If you would like to generate online HTML documentation, do &lsquo;<samp>cd
+<var>objdir</var>; make html</samp>&rsquo; and HTML will be generated for the gcc manuals in
+<samp><var>objdir</var>/gcc/HTML</samp>.
