Dear All,

I have been struggling with the installtion of gfortran, Now I am
trying to follow the instructions on the link
http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/InstallingGCC


tar xzf gcc-4.6.2.tar.gz
cd gcc-4.6.2
./contrib/download_prerequisites
cd ..
mkdir objdir
cd objdir
$PWD/../gcc-4.6.2/configure --prefix=/opt/gcc-4.6.2
make
make install


But I am not able to start configure.

It shows as follows:
