AFAIK, I have all the necessary packages installed (per the readme.djp file) -- although I am uncertain as to which version of patch I should be using. Here is the output: ================================= h:\djgpp\gnu\binutl-2.81>configure Applying DJGPP specific patches ... can't find file to patch at input line 3 Perhaps you should have used the -p or --strip option? The text leading up to this was: -------------------------- |--- binutils/nlmconv.c~ Wed Apr 30 18:59:12 1997 |+++ binutils/nlmconv.c Sat Jun 28 21:39:44 1997 -------------------------- File to patch: ================================= Strangely enough, if I manually type binutils/nlmconv.c it finds the file with no problem.... what gives? Even if I manually type in every filename it requests I get the following errors: ================================== File to patch: config/mh-go32 patching file `config/mh-go32' patching file `Makefile.in' Hunk #1 FAILED at 132. Hunk #2 FAILED at 322. 2 out of 2 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to Makefile.in.rej . . . similar errors involving: bfd/targets.c gas/config/tc-i386.c ================================== Finally, the script bombs with: Configuring libiberty... *** ../configure: unable to link "alloca-conf.h" to "./alloca-norm.h". Configure in //h/djgpp/gnu/binutl-2.81/libiberty failed, exiting. Any ideas? Shelby Cain
