reading the latest docs for gcc, the section "Tools/packages
necessary for modifying GCC", some curious entries:
1) autoconf 2.13 *and* 2.59. is that, strictly speaking, still true?
seems kind of inconvenient.
2) gettext-0.14.5 (or later), but gettext-0.14.5 is available only
from development which, technically, would break my machine's status
as a regular FC4 system, no?
3) autogen version 5.5.4, whose yum repo location is a mystery
although it is available as an i586 RPM here:
http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/4/idpl/2558000/com/autogen-5.8.1-5.i586.rpm.html
the general question, i guess: should an up-to date FC4 system have
all the software it needs to modify gcc? or should it be readily
available through the regular yum repos?
