Hello, I try to compile the rrdtool on my system a digitalserver 7305 (rawhide) with debian 3.1 kernel 2.6.20 and gcc 4.1.1.
The tool does some floatingpoint calculation using IEEE Math. If I try to run ./configure there is a problem: checking if IEEE math works out of the box... no checking if IEEE math works with the -ieee switch... no checking if IEEE math works with the -qfloat=nofold switch... no checking if IEEE math works with the -w -qflttrap=enable:zerodivide... no checking if IEEE math works with the -mieee switch... not isnan(NaN) ... no checking if IEEE math works with the -q float=rndsngl switch... no checking if IEEE math works with the -OPT:IEEE_NaN_inf=ON switch... no checking if IEEE math works with the -OPT:IEEE_comparisons=ON switch... no checking if IEEE math works with fpsetmask(0)... no checking if IEEE math works with signal(SIGFPE,SIG_IGN)... no configure: error: Your Compiler does not do propper IEEE math ... Please find out how to make IEEE math work with your compiler and let me know (tobi at oetiker.ch ). Check config.log to see what went wrong ... How can I make gcc support IEEE- math on my system? It seems to be a bug, because on Kernel 2.4 I was able to compile the tool. Thanks SteffenP.
