| Hi everyone.
Gcc has just started acting really funny on me. I am using
gcc --ver
Using built-in specs.
Configured with: FreeBSD/i386 system compiler
Thread model: posix
gcc version 3.2.2 [FreeBSD] 20030205 (release)
on FreeBSD 5.1
The problem is when users on the system try to compile any c program the
get the error message
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgcc
Does anyone know what causes this, I have searched google groups, but it
seems that all references to this are for windows machines and lcc.

I think that means it can't find its specs file in the place where
it is looking for it.

That library is normally deep in the gcc install tree, e.g.
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i486-suse-linux/2.95.3/libgcc.a
Run 'gcc -v foo.o' and look at the -L/... directives it passes to
the linker. Chances are these directories have disappeared.

How are we supposed to use the address above?

Do you have these libraries
/usr/lib/libgcc.a
/usr/lib/libgcc_p.a
/usr/lib/libgcc_pic.a
What are the permissions on /usr/lib?

I havent moved it, it think ts a permissions issue to be hionest, as gcc
works fine as root, and fine under my own personal account which is a
member of the wheel group.

I think you might have hit on something there, all file in /usr/lib are
-r--r--r--
and all the symlinks are
lrwxrwxrwx
Is this right?

Well I have figured out my problem.
I created the login group users in my login.conf with the following
properties.
user:\
:passwd_format=md5:\
:copyright=/etc/COPYRIGHT:\
:welcome=/etc/motd:\
:setenv=MAIL=/var/mail/$,BLOCKSIZE=K,FTP_PASSIVE_MODE=YES:\
:path=/sbin /bin /usr/sbin /usr/bin /usr/games /usr/local/sbin
/usr/local/bin /usr/X11R6/bin ~/bin:\
:nologin=/var/run/nologin:\
:cputime=3h:\
:datasize=unlimited:\
:stacksize=unlimited:\
:memorylocked=unlimited:\
:memoryuse=20M:\
:filesize=50M:\
:coredumpsize=5M:\
:openfiles=10:\
:maxproc=10:\
:sbsize=unlimited:\
:vmemoryuse=75M:\
:priority=0:\
:ignoretime@:\
:umask=022:
Now members of that group cant access the files needed for gcc.
To fix this should I simply add /usr/lib/ to the path?

Yes. However, you need the proper permission in /usr
drwxr-xr-x 4 root wheel - 8704 Jan 11 09:45 lib/
drwxr-xr-x 9 root wheel - 512 Mar 23 2003 libdata/
drwxr-xr-x 8 root wheel - 1536 Jan 11 09:44 libexec/

No.
The PATH-variable sets the search path for executables.
