 |
|
Has anyone had any luck using '-m32' with gcc? I've tried to compile several programs with it, but I always end up with errors, usually due to missing libraries. Here's an example error message -
| Code: |
checking for XOpenDisplay in -lX11... no
ERROR: You need libX11 to build Eterm. Verify that you have libX11.a or
libX11.so installed and that it is located in the X libraries
directory shown above. If it is in a different directory, try using
the --x-libraries parameter to configure.
configure: error: Fatal: libX11 not found.
|
This is just one example, I've tried several different progs, and nothing will compile with '-m32'.
I have the x86 emul libs installed (both base and X), I made sure gcc has multilib support, and I am able to run binary 32 bit programs (like opera).
This is driving me crazy, anybody have a clue?

First, you should add the /emul/linux/x86 library paths to ./configure and/or make.
For the specific example you gave, you need to point ./configure to a location other than the default for the 32-bit X11 libraries. This ERROR message is likely returned when ./configure tries to compile some simple test code using the X11 library. It doesn't work because you're likely pointing it to the 64-bit version of the library...
i.e.:
| Code: |
./configure --x-libraries=/emul/linux/x86/usr/X11R6/lib
|
This is a "doable" thing if you only have to do it for a small set of libraries. I *think* (mind you I've not tried any of this), it should also work if you prepend all of the 32-bit libraries to your LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable.
Give it a try and post your results...
Cheers,

P.S.: Why Eterm? It builds natively, doesn't it? |
