Attempt to create executable fails
Had a suspicion that trying to create an executable would fail, which is why I posted the other item about updating the version through synaptic ...
Anyway ... Downloaded the source for 2009.3.8, untar'd it, logged in as root, ran the config script, it failed -- as follows:
Code:
checking build system type... i686-pc-linux-gnulibc1
checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnulibc1
checking target system type... i686-pc-linux-gnulibc1
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking for gawk... no
checking for mawk... mawk
checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes
checking whether to enable maintainer-specific portions of Makefiles... no
checking for gcc... gcc
checking for C compiler default output file name...
configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details.
The config log is as follows:
Code:
This file contains any messages produced by compilers while

It was created by ntfs-3g configure 2009.3.8, which was
generated by GNU Autoconf 2.61. Invocation command line was

I'm running a version from Feb 2008 (latest my distro has to offer) and I'd really like to replace that with the current version.
Can anyone help?
