Description nvwarr 2025-02-08 12:12:57 UTC

sdcc-sdcc sets the path to include /usr/libexec/sdcc in the PATH, but it doesn't include the /usr/libexec/sdcc/x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu/12.1.0 directory where cc1 resides, so it fails with "sdcpp: fatal error: cannot execute 'cc1': execvp: No such file or directory"

Editing the sdcc-sdcc script to add this extra directory to the PATH fixes the problem.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. sdcc-sdcc -mmcs51 -c main.c
with some random main.c
Actual Results:  
sdcpp: fatal error: cannot execute 'cc1': execvp: No such file or directory

Expected Results:  
It should call cc1 from the subdirectory

Changing line 2 of the sdcc-sdcc script to

PATH=/usr/libexec/sdcc:/usr/libexec/sdcc/x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu/12.1.0/:$PATH

fixes the problem on my system, though I guess the exact subdirectory will depend on the system.
