installing sarge on an alphastation
hi,
i'm on installing debian linux sarge
on an alphastation 500/266. The installation itself works fine, but there
is a problem regarding the c-compiler. Linking an object file previously
compiled results in an error: /usr/bin/ld: unrecognized option --as-needed.
some tests brought me to the idea, that
a version mismatch could be the reason, since the linking worked with gcc3.2
(however the code did not work) and failed with higher versions. Linking
by hand, using gcc -v to get all the options and erasing the --as-needed
and --as-no-needed in the command line worked and produced working code
(so far as tested). So it seems to me that the file defining the options
to be set comes from version 3.2 or lower and is not updated to version
3.3 within the distribution.
Did you ever hear about this?
If you know something about, I would
love to hear a solution since otherwise sarge is great and the system works
fine. but gcc is somewhat crucial...
have a nice weekend then and best greetings
felix hermann
