pg++ probably has pentium compiled libīs and as i don't have a pentium
this might not be such a good idea :)....

so lets start on libg++-2.8.0.... As robert hoehne correctly noted I
don't have much experience building gnu packages so please be patient.

I made a djconfig.sh file similar to the one for gcc-2.8.0 and ran it
from my /gnu/obj directory ( the dir I use to build stuff in):

bash$ ./djconfig.sh
Configuring for a i386-pc-msdosdjgpp host.
*** This configuration is not supported in the following subdirectories:
     texinfo
    (Any other directories should still work fine.)
Created "Makefile" in /gnu/obj using "mh-frag"
configure: Unrecognized option: "--target=i386-pc-msdosdjgpp"; use
--help for usage.
Configure in /gnu/obj/libiberty failed, exiting.


I can build libiberty.a manually by renaming/copying alloca_manu.h to
alloca_manual.h and then run configure.bat and then make it... it
works... but doesn't seem to help when I rerun djconfig.sh...

So I'm not really anywhere yet.. 

I also tried to just run the makefile made by djconfig.sh (the one in
/gnu/obj) however it then will start to try to link a whole lot of files
to places that aren't there... (this was after editing configure to let
symbolic_link be 'cp' instead of 'ln -s',... I know one's not supposed
to edit these files but I couldn't find any enivronment settings that
would do the same thing .. )


any ideas ??? C++ whitout libs isn't realy fun :(...

regards,

Peter
