I recently tried to install GCC for the MC68HC11.
First, I tried building from sources and installing.
The example given was hard to try, because a link to
the source to build was broken. But I cobbled together
what I could, and tried the example. It didn't work,
because of missing include files.
I deleted the stuff which the install put into /usr/local/bin
/usr/local/lib/... etc. and started over.
I pulled the RPMs from the website, and did the install.
The RPMs put files into /usr/bin and /usr/lib/... etc
I tried it, and had exactly the same problems I had with
the build from source.
I decided to uninstall. But then I hit some problems. Here is
the current behavior of rpm, which I find confusing.
# rpm -e newlib-68hc1x-1.12.0-3.0.1.i586.rpm
error: package newlib-68hc1x-1.12.0-3.0.1.i586.rpm is not installed

So I'm confused. Can anyone explain this behavior, and give me
advice on what to do?

I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
