* GCC – Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 The challenge we face on the final part of the project is to build on a beta release of a compiler. Luckily for us we are able to reference our work with an earlier version of this compiler. The first task was to create a spec file. A Spec file is file that has a list of instructions that will be used by a building tool to build our packages. The problem we faced with our build is a bunch or errors linking back to libraries that it cannot find. After lots of Google searching and communication on Seneca’s Channel on IRC, we were able to fix that issue. After solving the issue we continued to build but this time we came across an issue, that even Google cannot help us with. To try to fix our issue we tried to email the package create of GCC, but sadly we did not hear back from them. After speaking with the Fedora community, they suggested that we try to do a command line build from the GCC 4.5 tarball. With their advice, we extracted the GCC 4.5 file and started building from command line.
