This document supersedes all 39package specific installation instructions. 40 41 <p><em>Before</em> starting the build/install procedure please check the 42<a href="specific.html">host/target specific installation notes</a>. 43We recommend you browse the entire generic installation instructions before 44you proceed. 45 46 <p>Lists of successful builds for released versions of GCC are 47available at <a href="http://gcc.gnu.org/buildstat.html">http://gcc.gnu.org/buildstat.html</a>. 48These lists are updated as new information becomes available. 49 50 <p>The installation procedure itself is broken into five steps. 51 52 <ol type=1 start=1> 53<li><a href="download.html">Downloading the source</a> 54<li><a href="configure.html">Configuration</a> 55<li><a href="build.html">Building</a> 56<li><a href="test.html">Testing</a> (optional) 57<li><a href="finalinstall.html">Final install</a> 58 </ol> 59 60 <p>Please note that GCC does not support <code>make uninstall</code> and probably 61won't do so in the near future as this would open a can of worms. Instead, 62we suggest that you install GCC into a directory of its own and simply 63remove that directory when you do not need that specific version of GCC 64any longer, and, if shared libraries are installed there as well, no 65more binaries exist that use them. 66 67 <p>There are also some <a href="old.html">old installation instructions</a>, 68which are mostly obsolete but still contain some information which has 69not yet been merged into the main part of this manual. 70 71 <hr /> 72<p> 73<a href="./index.html">Return to the GCC Installation page</a> 74 75Copyright © 1988, 1989, 1992, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 761999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003 Free Software Foundation, Inc. 77<br><p> 78 <p>Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document 79under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 or 80any later version published by the Free Software Foundation; with no 81Invariant Sections, the Front-Cover texts being (a) (see below), and 82with the Back-Cover Texts being (b) (see below).
