Installation

  1. If this is your first installation of GCC:

    Do the following:

    cd place_with_lot_of_space      ; EDIT! specify one
    makedir gnu
    lha x gcc260-base.lha           ; first part, you need it
    

    Now you have to append `gnu/s/user-startup' to your `s:user-startup' (replace Devel:GNU by your own gnu path).

    Continue:

    execute gnu/s/user-startup      ; makes important assigns
    copy gnu/envarc/#? ENVARC:
    

    Edit the following lines! If you have a 68000 or 68010 Amiga, remove the "-020" from the following lines wherever it appears!

    lha x gcc260-c-020.lha      ; C-compiler part; you need it
    lha x gcc260-doc.lha        ; only if you want Gcc documentation
    lha x gcc260-c++-020.lha    ; only if you want C++
    lha x gcc260-objc-020.lha   ; only if you want Objective-C
    lha x gcc260-utils.lha      ; only if you want additional utilities
                                ; (recommended for Unix compatibility)
    lha x gcc260-utilsdoc.lha   ; if you want all utilities documentation
    

    You must restore links between some programs by running the script `restorelinks':

    sh /gnu/s/restorelinks      ; EDIT! Append a " copy" to this line
                                ; if you don't want to use makelink
                                ; but rather copy file
    

    Last part:

    lha x gcc260-diffs.lha      ; if you want to rebuild all distribution
    lha x gcc260-texi.lha       ; if you want to build Postscript doc files
    

    Now skip to next paragraph and happy compiling!

  2. If you "upgrade" your gcc environment from v2.5.x, just unarchive first 2 archives as it would normally include all what you need (thus gcc260-base and gcc260-c). Make sure you delete your previous ixemul.library wherever it is (usually LIBS:).

Note: new version of ixemul.library is provided, make sure you don't have another copy somewhere which may conflict with gcc.
