reading the latest docs for gcc, the section "Tools/packages necessary for modifying GCC", some curious entries: 1) autoconf 2.13 *and* 2.59. is that, strictly speaking, still true? seems kind of inconvenient. 2) gettext-0.14.5 (or later), but gettext-0.14.5 is available only from development which, technically, would break my machine's status as a regular FC4 system, no? 3) autogen version 5.5.4, whose yum repo location is a mystery although it is available as an i586 RPM here: http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/4/idpl/2558000/com/autogen-5.8.1-5.i586.rpm.html the general question, i guess: should an up-to date FC4 system have all the software it needs to modify gcc? or should it be readily available through the regular yum repos? rday
