[snips-users] Build problem with Solaris
|
There appears to be a problem with the Makefile for the perl-module in SNIPS-1.0 under Solaris when using gcc to compile. Here is the relevant output from make: Running Mkbootstrap for SNIPS () chmod 644 SNIPS.bs LD_RUN_PATH="/lib:/home/ean/work/snips-1.0/lib" cc -o blib/arch/auto/SNIPS/SNIPS.so -R/lib -R/home/ean/work/snips-1.0/lib -G SNIPS.o -L/usr/local/lib -L/home/ean/work/snips-1.0/lib -lsocket -lnsl -lresolv -lsnips sh: cc: not found *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `blib/arch/auto/SNIPS/SNIPS.so' Current working directory /home/ean/work/snips-1.0/perl-module *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `all' This is the ld phase I believe and is caused because the 'cc' command included with Solaris (/usr/ucb/cc) is a stub for the SUN C compiler (which costs extra) and will only produce an error message. I have a work around to solve this problem: edit the Makefile and change the two instaces of 'LD = cc' to 'LD = gcc' and (optionally) remove the -KPIC from CCCDLFLAGS since gcc doesn't recognize it. This would probably cause problems if one was using the SUN c compiler so it should not be considered a fix for this problem. Maybe someone who knows more about autoconf could add a 'Which loader to use?' question to set this via the Configure script. -- Ean Kingston (eankingston at home com) I recently lost my job due to downsizing.
