Description Michal Nowak 2010-08-10 08:39:53 UTC
Description of problem:

Go to Help -> Help Contents -> GNU Tools:

* gcc points to version 4.3.1, while in RHEL6 is 4.4.4
* binutils points to http://sourceware.org/binutils/docs/ which is the latest binutils available (=2.20 which is what we have in RHEL6 too) but we would rather point to http://sourceware.org/binutils/docs-2.20/ so we don't point to 2.21 in the future
* pkg-config:

"""
Not Found
The requested URL /ftp/hpux/Development/Tools/pkgconfig-0.23/pkgconfig-0.23.man.html was not found on this server.
"""

Better target is http://hpux.its.tudelft.nl/ftp/hpux/Development/Tools/pkgconfig-0.25/pkgconfig-0.25.man.html but this is 0.25 version (we have 0.23). I am not aware of 0.23 documentation/man page online however you may want to ask pk-config maintainer to generate html page from /usr/share/man/man1/pkg-config.1.gz and the you can point to it.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

eclipse-platform-3.5.2-5.el6.x86_64

Comment 1 Jeff Johnston 2010-12-13 22:35:12 UTC
GNU Tools documentation is supplied as part of the Autotools plug-ins which are shipped as part of eclipse-cdt.  Switching the component to eclipse-cdt.

Comment 4 Jeff Johnston 2011-01-12 19:10:33 UTC
