[Axiom-developer] Re: Debian build

Hi Tim!  As David already indicated

1) get the latest binutils from
   ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/b/binutils/...deb
   for the arch you are working on

2) Unpack in your home dir with
   dpkg --fsys-tarfile ......deb | tar xf -

3) Set your shell environment as 
   export
   C_INCLUDE_PATH=$HOME/usr/include:$C_CINCLUDE_PATH
   export LIBRARY_PATH=$HOME/usr/lib:$LIBRARY_PATH
   export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$HOME/usr/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

You should then be good to go.  Can do the same with the gmp package
if you want to configure GCL with --enable-dynsysgmp.

Take care,
