Hello all, I saw in the last update that building issues on tru64 were being fixed, but I still have some myself. I'm building now 1.8.6 and I tried using gcc and tru64 cc without success:
libtool: compile: gcc -pthread -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I.. -I.. -I.. -I/opt/TWWfsw/libgmp41/include -I/usr/local/readline/include -I/usr/local/include -I/opt/TWWfsw/libgmp41/include -I/usr/local/readline/include -I/usr/local/include -D_REENTRANT -O2 -g -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Werror -MT libguile_la-gc_os_dep.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/libguile_la-gc_os_dep.Tpo -c gc_os_dep.c -DPIC -o .libs/libguile_la-gc_os_dep.o cc1: warnings being treated as errors gc_os_dep.c:1130: warning: type defaults to 'int' in declaration of '_end' gc_os_dep.c: In function 'scm_get_stack_base': gc_os_dep.c:1916: warning: comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast gmake[3]: *** [libguile_la-gc_os_dep.lo] Error 1 The error isn't the same when using cc instead of gcc, but it seems pthread related. In the previous 1.8.5 version which I could never build successfully, I was using a cflag -DSCM_DEBUG_TYPING_STRICTNESS=0 although I forgot how I was brought to use it, it's been a while since I tried building 1.8.5 I didn't use this flag on 1.8.6 this time. I was googling about this error and found nothing useful to help me, although I tried adding -fno-strict-aliasing to the cflags, but that too didn't help. I'm no C programmer, so I don't want to alter things I don't know enough about. I need some help to get this build to work. Thanks, -- Didier Godefroy mailto:d...@ulysium.net
