Did you also install the GNU binutils from there?
Looks like the following are not found:- configure:26575: gcc -o conftest -g -O2 -I/usr/local/include - L/usr/local/lib conftest.c - ldl -lm -lg2c -lm -lgcc_s -lfrtbegin: -lg2c: >&5 ld: fatal: library -lg2c: not found ld: fatal: library -lfrtbegin:: not found ld: fatal: library -lg2c:: not found ld: fatal: File processing errors. No output written to conftest collect2: ld returned 1 exit status configure:26581: $? = 1 configure: failed program was: | /* confdefs.h. */ Any idea where to get them from ?
I've tried to reassemble the line, and I get checking for Fortran libraries of g77... -L/usr/ccs/lib -L/usr/lib -L/usr/local/lib -L/usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/i386-pc-solaris2.10/3.3.2 -L/usr/ccs/bin -L/usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/i386-pc-solaris2.10/3.3.2/../../.. -lfrtbegin -lg2c -lm -lgcc_s -lfrtbegin: -lg2c: Now, the problem is those trailing colons: I have no idea what they mean and nor it seems does gcc. (I don't see where -lg2c:: comes from.) It should be possible to work around this, by setting FLIBS=-lg2c -lm -lgcc_s e.g. in config.site and re-configuring. That is a somewhat old version of gcc: I suggest you use it to compile 3.4.3 from the sources and see if that works better.
