GUB build problems

[Carl Sorensen]

OK, so I decided to try to start from scratch in building GUB.

I created a new virtual machine.

Loaded it with lily-dev 1.1, from
http://www.et.byu.edu/~sorensen/ubuntu-lilydev-remix-1.1.iso


Installed guest additions

Installed libmpfr-dev, with sudo apt-get libmpfr-dev

Got GUB with 

git clone http://github.com/gperciva/gub


Tried to build gub with

cd gub

make bootstrap


Build failed with

Looking at the failed command, it appears to me that gcc_tooldir is wrong.

There is no directory /usr/powerpc-apple-darwin7

And there shouldn't be one, IMO, since this is neither a powerpc machine
nor an osx installation.

It seems that gcc_tooldir should either be the same as tooldir, or
gcc_tooldir should reflect the current gcc that is being used.

Does anybody have any insight on this?

Thanks,

Carl
