 |
|
I've recently installed Gentoo on my Alpha (which is an XPS1000 with a 500MHz EV6 CPU and 1GB RAM), and everything seems to be working fine so far apart from being unable to build XFree86-4.3.0-r3. After pulling down the sources and unpacking, the build dies almost immediately with:
| Code: | make[2]: ./config/imake/imake: Command not found
make[2]: *** [xmakefile] Error 127
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/tmp/portage/xfree-4.3.0-r3/work/xc'
make[1]: *** [imake.bootstrap] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/tmp/portage/xfree-4.3.0-r3/work/xc'
make: *** [World] Error 2
!!! ERROR: x11-base/xfree-4.3.0-r3 failed.
!!! Function src_compile, Line 476, Exitcode 2
!!! (no error message)
|
Looking further up I notice the following:
| Code: | cd ./config/imake && make -f Makefile.proto all
make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/tmp/portage/xfree-4.3.0-r3/work/xc/config/imake'

/bin/sh: o: command not found

So it seems that the compiler flags are being passed as a command instead of an argument. My make.conf has the same as whatever is in the installation instructions for Alpha, and I've tried removing any additional flags to see if that helps but the same (or similar) error persists. I'm probably missing something really obvious here but I just can't see it.
Any suggestions? |

Ah, think I found the problem. The COMPILER environment variable seems to be set by default to 'gcc3', but:
nick@lungfish nick $ gcc3 -v
bash: gcc3: command not found
So setting COMPILER to just 'gcc' instead means that it's now happily compiling away. |
