This procedure is basically wrong (as concerning the GNU Project tools) if the make distclean is not performed before configure. You could do make many times - but it performs differently 1st and following times for gcc builds - do not ask me why but it is true. So the build should go smoothly to be sure that everything is made properly. And as a matter of fact it does for everything except for GM2.On Mon, 22 Sep 2003 10:36:12 +0200 Izo <address@hidden> wrote: [snip]I understand that the pngtopnm and pnmtops are not found. Butthe next time I do make in gcc-host directory, it comes through - so obviously something is not quite correct in the build process.Ok, now here's what I usually experience: Whenever I build GNU Modula-2 (cvs and gcc from gnu.org) three steps are necessary: 1. First I get en error because of some utilities I don't have installed: 2. After redoing configure and make I get the following error because I do not have Python installed: 3. And when redoing make and configure a third time, the compiler is built without a problem. Does configure learn from errors?
Unless this is fixed by Gaius, I propose building as follows: 1. configure 2. make -k 3. makeThus you can be sure that the all other parts of the gcc tree are built in the make -k step, only GM2 is build in second make step. Re-configure is not needed, really, from my experience.
Anyway, this behaviour only appeared with gm2-0.4 so I believe that Gaius will fix it very soon.
What I am concerned more is that gcc-3.2.3+gm2-0.4 build does not work for me ! I have already sent the information about it. Gaius ?
BTW, Cristoph, good work on your Modula-2 page, as the GM2 is concerned. Keep on ! Only publish the information regularly (every 15 days) on the comp.lang.modula2 newsgroup !
