Re: [bug-gsrc] Build failure

[Monsler, Eric M]

Carl,

 

Thank you for the –k direction; I had misunderstood that it wasn’t the “build of gsrc” that failed, but rather the build of one of the gsrc-provided components.

 

I have not been able to pull by bzr due to the firewall policy.  The fetch needs to be http (or https) so that my proxy tunnel will transport it.  I’m going to start a new thread, for the benefit of future searchers.

 

Eric

Hello,

 My error is in building 3dldf during the initial ‘make’ of gsrc-2014.07.06.  The short version is inline in this email, a longer version attached

 

 

 

 

 

 

First do this in your gsrc directory:

bzr update

just to be sure, you can do, again:

  ./bootstrap                       # to create the configure script
  ./configure --prefix=$HOME/gnu    # directory to install the packages

then you now have the very latest version

I haven't actually tried looking at your 3ddlf problem, maybe the update
will fix it. Otherwise,  skip 3dldf and move on to the rest.

This is most easily done by saying

make -k

rather than

make

when your trying to make everything.

Not everything actually compiles, in my experience anyway

 

You might try just making one or a few packages to test the general workings of your

installation, eg:

make -C gnu/hello

if that works, then try

make -k

which will continue with the rest after failures...
