Bug#643945: Failed to build GCC from source: “No place specified to document hook TARGET_ASM_OPEN_PAREN”
Package: gcc-4.6 source
Version: 4.6.1-4 (same with 4.6.1-13 too)
Got error “No place specified to document hook TARGET_ASM_OPEN_PAREN” during install after a build of GCC 4.6 from source.
The bug is similar to this one:
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=48378
The above link is FSF GCC source specific, and as this one occurred with a Debian source archive, I though this would be better to submit it to Debian.
The above similar bug report states this may be due to an attempt to build GCC from within its source directory. But when the error occurs, I am building from a pear build directory.
Detailed context of operations:
I used GCC 4.6 source from Debian Wheezy (same result with source with Sid), which I built from Ubuntu Maverick.
Source archive was retrieved there:
http://packages.debian.org/source/wheezy/gcc-4.6
Source was unpacked in a directory named “source”, a pear “build” directory was created, and configure was invoked as “../source/configure” from the build directory.
Options passed to configure was “--enable-libada --enable-libssp --enable-languages=c,c++,ada --disable-rpath --disable-nls”. Then, “make” and then “sudo make install”. “make” is fine, error occurs only during “sudo make install”.
Retried multiple times after cleaning the “/usr/local” directory, the result is always the same; can't build.
This error does not occurs with original GCC 4.6 source as retrieved from:
ftp://gcc.gnu.org/pub/gcc/releases/gcc-4.6.1/
Additional required informations:
Restult of “uname -a”:

Apologizes if I ever made something wrong (I am not very versed at Debian stuff and processes).
