GCC Compile Error on HP-UX 10.20

[gineraso]

I attempting to build GCC 3.4.6 on my HP 10.20 D Class server. I run make bootstrap in a sub-directory and I get this error:

Bootstrapping the compiler
Make: line 64: syntax error. Stop.
*** Error exit code 1

Is there a log I can look at for more information? Cany anyone assist me? Thank you.

Why not get it prebuilt from my site?

http://mirrors.develooper.com/hpux/downloads.html#hpux1020

http://mirrors.develooper.com/hpux/gcc-4.1.0-10.20.sd.bz

OK, it's not 3.4.6, but at least it is very recent, and it should suffice to help you build 3.4.6 with it.

It looks like a depot. Can it be that easy??

[H.Merijn Brand (procura]

I hope so. At least I have *tried* to make it that easy.

# cd /tmp
# wget http://mirrors.develooper.com/hpux/gcc-4.1.0-10.20.sd.bz
# bzip2 -d gcc-4.1.0-10.20.sd.bz
# swinstall -s /tmp/gcc-4.1.0-10.20.sd gcc

# perl -pi -e 's,$,:/usr/local/pa11_32/bin,' /etc/PATH
# export PATH=$PATH":"/usr/local/pa11_32/bin

Done

Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn

If you do decide to go ahead and build GCC you need the GNU make. I think this is why you are getting the make error, because you are using the HP make instead of GNU make.

[gineraso]

I was using the wrong make. Thank you. I now get this error using this command:

/gen1/lginer/gcc-3.4.6/configure --prefix=/gen1/usr/local --exec-prefix=/gen1/usr/local --libexecdir=/gen1/usr/local/libexec

make bootstrap-lean

make[1]: *** [stage1_build] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/gen1/gcc/gcc'
make: *** [bootstrap-lean] Error 2

I can't get the Makefile to override where libexec is installed. There is a file named /usr/libexec that I don't know if I can move/delete. Going nuts here...please help.

I have never seen this problem. I generally compile with --prefix= but don't use --exec-prefix or --libexecdir. I would try leaving these two options out. The documentation in gcc/doc/install.texi indicates that these options should not normally be needed. Do you get the same error when you don't use these options?

[Luis Giner]

Yes. The reason I started adding those variables was that a file named /usr/libexec already exists. I was trying to see if it would install somewhere else. I'm not sure what libexec is so I can't just move or delete it.

[Steve Ellcey]

I am not sure why, using --prefix=/gen1/usr/local, you would get a complaint about /usr/libexec already existing.

If you use --prefix=/gen1/usr/local then everything should be put under /gen1/usr/local and nothing should get put into /usr/libexec. Does /gen1/usr/local have symlinks under it that point back to /usr/libexec? Can you change your prefix to some directory that is currently empty (or does not exist) and put GCC there instead of into /gen1/usr/local?

[gineraso]

There's no links at all. I created a new directory /gen1/gnucc and running it there. Let's see what happens.

[gineraso]

I get the exact same error.
/gen1/lginer/gcc-3.4.6/configure --prefix=/gen1/gnucc

[Steve Ellcey]

The only thing I see that looks different from what I do is that you are making 'bootstrap-lean' instead of 'bootstrap'. Does it make any difference if you build bootstrap instead of bootstrap-lean? If not, I think I am out of ideas on what the problem is. I only build on HP-UX 11.* platforms these days and don't have a 10.20 system to test this out on.

[gineraso]

It does the same thing with just bootstrap. I appreciate your time on this. Perhaps someone else can assist me?

[H.Merijn Brand (procura]

Did you try the build scripts that are available on my site?

It's all described here: http://mirrors.develooper.com/hpux/#Gcc

I hadn't used them. How do they work?
