compiling toolchain fails at script 4

I'm attempting to compile under Ubuntu 8.10 and keep getting this error (running toolchain-sudo.sh. I think that I have installed all the required packages)

--2009-03-30 21:09:10-- ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/newlib/new ... 5.0.tar.gz
=> `newlib-1.15.0.tar.gz'

../scripts/004-newlib-1.15.0.sh: Failed.
ERROR: Could not run the toolchain script.

I tried downloading the file and placing it in the build directory but I get the same connection refused error.

I tried editing the script to a different mirror but as soon as it gets to the script it fails again.

Is there is a solution

Try and install compat-gcc via apt or synaptic and head into /usr/bin then type

ls *gcc*

and post the output, assuming you got compat-gcc installed.

I had to use an older version of gcc on both the psptoolchain and ps2toolchain.

I'll check and post results when I am back at that computer but for now I just want to note that I did choose to install gcc-4.2.

That didn't work so I used

Code: Select all

sudo CC="gcc-4.2" ./toolchain-sudo.sh

running without that results in buffer overflow

edit:

output of ls *gcc*

Code: Select all

c89-gcc  c99-gcc  gcc  gcc-4.2  gcc-4.3  gccmakedep  i486-linux-gnu-gcc  i486-linux-gnu-gcc-4.2  i486-linux-gnu-gcc-4.3  winegcc

tried

Code: Select all

rm /usr/bin/gcc
ln -s /usr/bin/gcc-4.2 /usr/bin/gcc

still doesn't work.

edit: now it connects to redhat but still fails.

I have all the output saved and can post it if needed

try

sudo apt-get install compat-gcc*

and do the ls *gcc* thing.

(Compat is way back like 3.4).

couldn't find the package.

tried searching in synaptic too. didn't find anything.

did find gcc-3.4, is that it?

I don't know then, I am not familiar with the names of the debian packages.

What you could just do is compile it via source under some other directory or name.
