Hi there, I'm trying to install Guile 1.8 (_not_ the latest 2.2.6 version) on Mac OS 10.14 Mojave. I downloaded the guile-1.8.8.tar.gz file from ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/guile/ <ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/guile/> . However, after running ./configure, running 'make' stops with the following error:
gc-malloc.c:95:20: error: comparison of unsigned expression < 0 is always false [-Werror,-Wtautological-compare] if (scm_mtrigger < 0) Then I realised that the `gcc` command was pointing to clang (as by default on Mac OS) so I installed GCC 9.1.0 and forced the `gcc` command to point to this GCC. When I extracted the archive again in a new folder and executed ./configure, I ran into another problem: checking whether we are cross compiling... configure: error: in `/Users/jean/Applications/guile-1.8.8-new': configure: error: cannot run C compiled programs. If you meant to cross compile, use `--host'. See `config.log' for more details I attach the logs generated by the compilation commands: iMac:guile-1.8.8 jean$ # This is with clang. iMac:guile-1.8.8 jean$ ./configure iMac:guile-1.8.8 jean$ make &> guile-make.log # attaching 'guile-make.log' iMac-devoirs:guile-1.8.8-new jean$ # This is with GCC 9.1.0. iMac-devoirs:guile-1.8.8-new jean$ ./configure # attaching 'config.log' Any hints on how to get Guile to compile? Thanks in advance, Jean Abou Samra.
