TCC compiles but file not found

[CodeAsm]

tcc: error: file 'crt1.o' not found
tcc: error: file 'crti.o' not found
hello.c:1: error: include file 'stdio.h' not found

or

~ # tcc -o hello2 hello.c -I /include/
tcc: error: file 'crt1.o' not found
tcc: error: file 'crti.o' not found
tcc: error: library 'c' not found
tcc: error: file '/usr/lib/tcc/libtcc1.a' not found
tcc: error: file 'crtn.o' not found
tcc: error: undefined symbol 'printf'

Need more research and fix. maybe default paths need changes.

how did you solve this problem

[CodeAsm]

I havent yet. altho I now think it has to do with a libc we need. gnu libc, musl, newlin or uClibc. I think I probably messed up somewhere with the include paths, generic path finding or something.

today with chatgpt and alike. it suggests:

/
├── bin/                # busybox, tcc, and other executables
├── include/         # musl headers
├── lib/                # musl libraries and crt files
└── hello.c             # your source code

and

tcc -o hello hello.c -I/include -L/lib -lc

which might be what im missing. (havent checked if musl precompiled does install the nececairy things in lib and include, but musl's own compiler did work.)

I "solved" it like this pkgforge/soarpkgs#154 (comment)

[CodeAsm]

Thats some awesome tricks your pulling. cool. I might "borrow" your written down wisdom someday
