Dependency creation fails for libcpp on OpenUnix 8.5. Surprisingly enough the previous phases of the gcc bootstrap work well enough and also seemed to do some dependency work.
The cc on Caldera OpenUnix 8.5 can generate dependencies but it's not used for this purpose. Here is the man : -H Causes the pathnames of all files included to be printed, one per line, on the standard error output. I'm not a shell wizzard but I guess something like the following should be added to depcomp (I mean - the following does NOT work :) ). sco) cc -c -H "$object" 2>"$tmpdepfile" stat=$? cat $tmpdepfile if test $stat -eq 0; then : else rm -f "$tmpdepfile" exit $stat fi mv "$tmpdepfile" "$depfile" ;; I know the stderr may not available for the purpose. May be someone more familiar with these scripts can do the trick? Thank you, Mircea P.S.1 Here's the uname -a : OpenUNIX T114p 5 8.0.0 i386 x86at Caldera UNIX_SVR5 P.S.2 May be mp4 could be made to generate these dependencies so this whole script collection becomes unneeded? -- Summary: libcpp/configure - no usable dependency style found Product: gcc Version: 4.1.1 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: bootstrap AssignedTo: unassigned at gcc dot gnu dot org ReportedBy: mircea_lutic at yahoo dot com GCC build triplet: i686-unknown-sysv5OpenUNIX8.0.0 GCC host triplet: i686-unknown-sysv5OpenUNIX8.0.0 GCC target triplet: i686-unknown-sysv5OpenUNIX8.0.0 http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29482
