- My Linux installation is rapidly going pear shaped...
-
- problem 1:
-
- In a fit of madness I deleted /usr/include whilst trying to get the
- compiler to behave. Dont bother backing it up, I told myself, just delete
- it, you can always get it from the RPM again....
-
- well, I redownloaded the RPM's (it /is/ only the gcc RPM I need, isnt it?)
- and to my utter dismay, thr rpm wont install. not even with --force
-
- I tried
-
- rpm --install --force <gcclibraraynamehere.arm.rpm>
-
- but it just said it couldnt install it. adding -vv gave no clues as to
- /why/ it couldnt install it...
-
- rpm now seems to work on precisely none of the packages (I tried about 5 or
- 6 of them)
-
- problem 2:
-
- For some reason, it has forgotten one of it's routes. it /used/ to
- automagically do a 'route add default gw 192.168.240.254' on startup, but
- apparently no longer does. why? and what file needs tweaking to repair
- this?
-
- like I said, HEEELP! (I'm going mad with this damn thing. Esp. the
- compiler, which I (obviously) still cant make behave itself!
-
- Thanks!
