I'm not sure if this is a linking error or a GCC error, and it's system-wide. I'm not sure when exactly it introduced - but it impacts anything where you have to "configure" first.
Code:
checking for gcc... gcc
checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) works... no
configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C compiler cannot create executables.
This bit shows up on EVERY config.log that gets spit out
Code:
configure:916: gcc -o conftest conftest.c 1>&5
ld: crtbegin.o: No such file: No such file or directory
configure: failed program was:
I do have buildessentials (and hence gcc and g++) installed, and I've successfully compiled a lot of stuff before - perhaps there was an upgrade that broke something? If so, what do I do to fix this?
I wasn't planning to upgrade yet (more like the end of summer), so if there's a solution that doesn't involve wiping and reinstalling, I'll be thrilled.
