Hello everyone,
I am trying to compile glibc-2.3.2 with gcc-2.95.3 and the configure script
fails when checking the gcc version. Is gcc-2 support dropped? I wasn't able
to find anything in the INSTALL file (as specified in the error) nor on
google. If so, which is the latest glibc version that can be compiled with
gcc-2.95.3?
Below I paste the whole output:
bash-2.05a$ ../glibc-2.3.2/configure --prefix=/tools --disable-profile

Thank you for your help, and for the wonderful software you write.
