gm2 doesn't work

Saluton!
I, too, have problems with gm2. I'm on Ubuntu 11.10 (64 bit).
Synaptic tells me I have gm2 1.0.4, gm2 --version says 1.0.3
(20110930). I installed gm2 using the .debs.
When I try to compile (and link) (even) a simple Hello World,
(/usr/bin/) ld complains that it can't find crt1.o and/or
crti.o. A filesearch results in finding them in
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/. Is ld not seeing them a bug or
is Debian different from Ubuntu with respect to their
location? And how do I get the thing to find these files?
I didn't find something of help in the (online) gm2-docs
(maybe I didn't look into the right place).
(It wasn't always a problem, I did successfully compile
several self-written programs with previous versions of
the compiler and Ubuntu (and Debian).)
Ad Astra!

Hi,
I'm probably not the best person to answer this, but maybe it'll
help anyways,

So you're using an official Ubuntu package? For whatever reason, I
think others (e.g. FBC, Clang) have packaged Debian and Ubuntu
separately due to minor differences, which is odd to my eyes, but I
guess they're different enough to warrant it. Gaius does have a .deb
for Debian amd64 on his site, but I don't guess you'd want that here.
I just now tried searching http://packages.ubuntu.com under oneiric
(11.10), but I couldn't find it.

Didn't Debian implement some changes recently for (better) multiarch
support?

You could probably use -I. -L. etc., but that's kludgy. Or try "gm2 -
print-search-dirs" to see where it's looking (which, for me, shows
"install:", "programs:", "libraries:").

Hmmm, that sounds like something new has broken. Does Ubuntu have a
maintainer for this package? (Doubt it, but you could try contacting
that person.)

Oh, no, sorry! I added the gm2 site to my sources.list and used
their .debs. I think there are no official Ubuntu gm2 packages.

I have no idea.

-I is, I understand, only for .defs and .mods. -L isn't
mentioned on the website-docs ... (-fobject-path seems to be
for something different, too - at least pointing it to the
aforementioned directory doesn't work either.)
Hm. Invoking gm2 --help gives entirely different options
to the ones on the website (
http://www.nongnu.org/gm2/compiler_options.html); I see no
-L there either, but I could try other library or linker
options.
(Kludgy would be ok for now, as long as it works. ;-))

Hm... Thanks, did't see that one (only looked on the website
before). Bewildering output ... Could be a problem with it only
looking into /4.1.2/ subdirectories or something like that ...

I thought GM2 was self-contained in /opt/gm2, but apparently not. So

I know Gaius reads here sometimes, so maybe he'll chime in. If not,

I thought GM2 was self-contained in /opt/gm2, but apparently not. So
presumably it relies on you already having the files, I guess from a

Afaik those aren't part of gcc, but of the OS (dynamic linker package?)
