#724 closed defect (invalid)

incorrect path when making preprocessor and cc symlinks at end of install

Description

When installing GCC-3.3.1 in part iii the current working directory after doing the "make install" is /source/gcc-build

The instructions say to make symlinks with: ln -s ../usr/bin/cpp /lib

I think the .. is wrong and should be ln -s ../usr/bin/cpp /lib

The next command is: ln -s gcc /usr/bin/cc

I think that should be ln -s /usr/bin/gcc /usr/bin/cc

at least ... I think so ... I'm only just keeping up with this (learning heaps tho)

ok - i stuffed up the description - I meant to leave out the .. when making the first symlink

The current working dir has nothing to do with it. Please "man ln" to learn about the various syntax variations. I coulda sworn this was in the FAQ.
