Welcome to GCC, and good luck for GSoC 2025! In addition to what Martin already wrote: > Here is the error: [...] > ChatGPT doesn't seem to be able to fix it. Eh. ;'-) > I used this command for configure: [...] > I tried rerunning [...] > it didn't work. Please let me know what I should do next. Let me say that you've gained some bonus points already: you've provided the exact error message, in plain text form (instead of a screenshot image or similar, or not at all...), and you've provided the build steps that lead to this error, and you've provided some comments on what you've already tried to overcome the issue. (Additionally, the exact sources revision might be helpful.) I didn't try, but with the information you provided, I should be able to reproduce the problem locally. A lot of newcomers fail to provide such details, even if requested explicitly, so thank you for being more helpful! :-) > I really want to > work for gcc this summer. So, here's your first task: fix this issue. :-) But first, update the sources, to see if the problem has been resolved already. If not, patch the GCC sources until it builds, and submit your patch to <gcc-patc...@gcc.gnu.org>; see <https://gcc.gnu.org/contribute.html#patches>.
