This document supersedes all 51package specific installation instructions. 52 53 <p><em>Before</em> starting the build/install procedure please check the 54<a href="specific.html">host/target specific installation notes</a>. 55We recommend you browse the entire generic installation instructions before 56you proceed. 57 58 <p>Lists of successful builds for released versions of GCC are 59available at <a href="http://gcc.gnu.org/buildstat.html">http://gcc.gnu.org/buildstat.html</a>. 60These lists are updated as new information becomes available. 61 62 <p>The installation procedure itself is broken into five steps. 63 64 <ol type=1 start=1> 65<li><a href="download.html">Downloading the source</a> 66<li><a href="configure.html">Configuration</a> 67<li><a href="build.html">Building</a> 68<li><a href="test.html">Testing</a> (optional) 69<li><a href="finalinstall.html">Final install</a> 70 </ol> 71 72 <p>Please note that GCC does not support <span class="samp">make uninstall</span> and probably 73won't do so in the near future as this would open a can of worms. Instead, 74we suggest that you install GCC into a directory of its own and simply 75remove that directory when you do not need that specific version of GCC 76any longer, and, if shared libraries are installed there as well, no 77more binaries exist that use them. 78 79 <p>There are also some <a href="old.html">old installation instructions</a>, 80which are mostly obsolete but still contain some information which has 81not yet been merged into the main part of this manual. 82 83 <p><hr /> 84<p><a href="./index.html">Return to the GCC Installation page</a> 85 86 <p>Copyright © 1988, 1989, 1992, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 871999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003 Free Software Foundation, Inc. 88 <pre class="sp"> 89 90</pre> 91Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document 92under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 or 93any later version published by the Free Software Foundation; with no 94Invariant Sections, the Front-Cover texts being (a) (see below), and 95with the Back-Cover Texts being (b) (see below).
