Hi All, Can anyone save me from error mensioned in the subject line. I am trying to cross-compile gdb+dejagnu-20020419 (the current one) where the host will be arm-linux and the build machine is i586-pc-linux-gnu . After download and umpacking I run the configure with the following command. CC="arm-linux-gcc" ./configure --host=arm-linux --target=arm-linux --build=i586-pc-linux-gnu. which eventually dies at : checking compiler warning flags... -Wimplicit -Wreturn-type -Wcomment -Wtrigraphs -Wformat -Wparentheses -Wpointer-arith -Wuninitialized checking for cygwin... no checking for tgetent in -lncurses... (cached) no checking for tgetent in -lHcurses... no checking for tgetent in -ltermlib... no checking for tgetent in -ltermcap... (cached) no checking for tgetent in -lcurses... (cached) no checking for tgetent in -lterminfo... no configure: cross-compiling for a non-cygwin target is not supported configure: error: Could not find a term library Configure in /home/nags/gdb+dejagnu-20020419/gdb failed, exiting. when I tried to solve the above error by installing the libtermcap*.rpm, libtermcap*-devel.rpm, ncurses*.rpm and ncurses*-devel.rpm. I found that these rpms are alredy installed in my distribution(I found in one of mail which replied to the same error says that ,One of these is bound to make it work). I am using Redhat 7.1 while the same command work fine for gdb-5.1, since gdb5.1 doesnot have support for arm cross-compilation( which i found after running make command)I have been advicsed to try it on the latest gdb snapshot by some experts ,resulted the above error. Can anyone tell me why I am getting this error in the latest gdb snashot while it is not there in gdb-5.1.also can any one pass me the roght configuratiion command and setting if any. Thanks a lot in advance nagaraja
