Slackware gcc question

[nitromullet]

Whenever I try to compile anything with gcc, I get the following error:

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgcc_s
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

The same source code compiles and runs like a champ on my fedora core box... Any help appreciated.

According to various sources on google, you're not linking to libgcc_s.so properly. Find it, and make sure that the make process is looking in the right spot.

I got that from the googling I did...

I have /usr/lib/libgcc_s.so.1

but, not a /usr/lib/libgcc_s.so

are these interchangable?

If so, how do I make gcc link to this file?

I take it you have gcc installed, and binutils?

ALOHA

 

[nitromullet]

yes, both...
gcc-3.3.4-i486-1.tar
binutils-2.15.92.0.2-i486-3.tgz

as well as

glibc-2.3.4-i486-1.tar
kernel-headers-2.6.18-i386-1.tar
make-3.80-i386-1.tar
autoconf-2.60-noarch-1.tar

Cheesy hack that isn't guarenteed to work: symlink libgcc_s.so.1 to libgcc_s.so. 😛
