- <h1 class="settitle">Installing GCC: Final installation</h1>
- Now that GCC has been built (and optionally tested), you can install it with
- <pre class="smallexample"> cd <var>objdir</var> && make install
- </pre>
- <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>That step completes the installation of GCC; user level binaries can
- be found in <samp><var>prefix</var><span class="file">/bin</span></samp> where <var>prefix</var> is the value
- you specified with the <samp><span class="option">--prefix</span></samp> to configure (or
- <samp><span class="file">/usr/local</span></samp> by default). (If you specified <samp><span class="option">--bindir</span></samp>,
- that directory will be used instead; otherwise, if you specified
- <samp><span class="option">--exec-prefix</span></samp>, <samp><var>exec-prefix</var><span class="file">/bin</span></samp> will be used.)
- Headers for the C++ and Java libraries are installed in
- <samp><var>prefix</var><span class="file">/include</span></samp>; libraries in <samp><var>libdir</var></samp>
- (normally <samp><var>prefix</var><span class="file">/lib</span></samp>); internal parts of the compiler in
- <samp><var>libdir</var><span class="file">/gcc</span></samp> and <samp><var>libexecdir</var><span class="file">/gcc</span></samp>; documentation
- in info format in <samp><var>infodir</var></samp> (normally
- <samp><var>prefix</var><span class="file">/info</span></samp>).
- <p>When installing cross-compilers, GCC's executables
- are not only installed into <samp><var>bindir</var></samp>, that
- is, <samp><var>exec-prefix</var><span class="file">/bin</span></samp>, but additionally into
- <samp><var>exec-prefix</var><span class="file">/</span><var>target-alias</var><span class="file">/bin</span></samp>, if that directory
- exists. Typically, such <dfn>tooldirs</dfn> hold target-specific
- binutils, including assembler and linker.
- <p>Installation into a temporary staging area or into a <samp><span class="command">chroot</span></samp>
- jail can be achieved with the command
- <pre class="smallexample"> make DESTDIR=<var>path-to-rootdir</var> install
- </pre>
- <p class="noindent">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>There is a subtle point with tooldirs and <code>DESTDIR</code>:
- If you relocate a cross-compiler installation with
- e.g. ‘<samp><span class="samp">DESTDIR=</span><var>rootdir</var></samp>’, then the directory
- <samp><var>rootdir</var><span class="file">/</span><var>exec-prefix</var><span class="file">/</span><var>target-alias</var><span class="file">/bin</span></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>You can install stripped programs and libraries with
- <pre class="smallexample"> make install-strip
- </pre>
- <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:
- <ul>
- <li>Output from running <samp><var>srcdir</var><span class="file">/config.guess</span></samp>. Do not send
- that file itself, just the one-line output from running it.
- <li>The output of ‘<samp><span class="samp">gcc -v</span></samp>’ for your newly installed <samp><span class="command">gcc</span></samp>.
- This tells us which version of GCC you built and the options you passed to
- configure.
- <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 ‘<samp><span class="samp">gcc -v</span></samp>’, but if you downloaded the
- “core” compiler plus additional front ends then it isn't apparent
- which ones you built unless you tell us about it.
- <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><span class="file">/etc/issue</span></samp>.
- <li>The version of the Linux kernel, available from ‘<samp><span class="samp">uname --version</span></samp>’
- or ‘<samp><span class="samp">uname -a</span></samp>’.
- <li>The version of glibc you used; for RPM-based systems like Red Hat,
- Mandrake, and SuSE type ‘<samp><span class="samp">rpm -q glibc</span></samp>’ to get the glibc version,
- and on systems like Debian and Progeny use ‘<samp><span class="samp">dpkg -l libc6</span></samp>’.
- </ul>
- For other systems, you can include similar information if you think it is
- relevant.
- <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.
- </ul>
- <p>We'd also like to know if the
- <a href="specific.html">host/target specific installation notes</a>
- didn'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>If you find a bug, please report it following the
- <a href="../bugs/">bug reporting guidelines</a>.
- <p>If you want to print the GCC manuals, do ‘<samp><span class="samp">cd </span><var>objdir</var><span class="samp">; make
- dvi</span></samp>’. You will need to have <samp><span class="command">texi2dvi</span></samp> (version at least 4.7)
- and TeX installed. This creates a number of <samp><span class="file">.dvi</span></samp> files in
- subdirectories of <samp><var>objdir</var></samp>; these may be converted for
- printing with programs such as <samp><span class="command">dvips</span></samp>. Alternately, by using
- ‘<samp><span class="samp">make pdf</span></samp>’ in place of ‘<samp><span class="samp">make dvi</span></samp>’, you can create documentation
- in the form of <samp><span class="file">.pdf</span></samp> files; this requires <samp><span class="command">texi2pdf</span></samp>, 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>If you would like to generate online HTML documentation, do ‘<samp><span class="samp">cd
- </span><var>objdir</var><span class="samp">; make html</span></samp>’ and HTML will be generated for the gcc manuals in
- <samp><var>objdir</var><span class="file">/gcc/HTML</span></samp>.
