[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #34725] Something regarding Lex causes build failure on OpenBSD

[John W. Eaton]

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #34725 (project octave):

The builtins.cc file is not distributed with the Octave sources.

Look at the src/mkbuiltins script.  It is a fairly simple shell script that
uses sed.

But I think the problem is that your generated .df files are not correct.

The .df files are intermediate files that should contain lines like


// DO NOT EDIT!  Generated automatically by mkdefs.
 XDEFUN_FILE_NAME ("src/data.cc")
 XDEFUN_INTERNAL (all, args, , "-*- texinfo address@hidden  {Built-in
Function} {} all (@var{x})address@hidden {Built-in Function} {} all (@var{x},
@var{dim})nFor a vector argument, return true (logical 1) if all elements of
the vectornare nonzero.nnFor a matrix argument, return a row vector of logical
ones andnzeros with each element indicating whether all of the elements of
thencorresponding column of the matrix are nonzero.  For
example:address@hidden@groupnall ([2, 3; 1, 0]))n     @result{} [ 1, 0 
address@hidden
address@hidden examplennIf the optional argument @var{dim} is supplied, work 
along
address@hidden@address@hidden deftypefn") 


The src/mkdefs script is another fairly small script that uses sed.  It
processes C++ preprocessor output.

So why is generating the .df files not working?

I have a copy of OpenBSD installed in a VM.  How did you install dependencies
like LAPACK+BLAS?  Are there packages available for OpenBSD?
