To solve it, you need to install flex:
sudo apt-get install flex

How about this link?
https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gcc/gcc-5.4.0/gcc-5.4.0.tar.gz

I think a change in the following directories from _ to . will be required as well

I have fixed several errors in the archive, i leave the correct version of it down below

Dear all

I'm trying to compile GCC, using RodriguezManuel's method. But I find this error: make: *** [Makefile:911: all] Error 2

Anyone knows how can I solved it?

Thanks

@pizzochero

I suspect you need to install flex golang/go#316

@rodriguezmanueljoaquin

Got the same error. Seems that we should use a older compiler. Refer: Freetz-NG/freetz-ng#396
