Hi everyone,

I'm trying to overcome this error at building htk:

if [ xHSLab = xHSLab ] ; then \
gcc34 -o HSLab -m32 -ansi -D_SVID_SOURCE -DOSS_AUDIO -D'ARCH="x86_64"' -Wall -Wno-switch -g -O2 -I../HTKLib -DPHNALG HSLab.c ../HTKLib/HTKLib.a -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lm -lX11 ; \
else \
gcc34 -o HSLab -m32 -ansi -D_SVID_SOURCE -DOSS_AUDIO -D'ARCH="x86_64"' -Wall -Wno-switch -g -O2 -I../HTKLib -DPHNALG HSLab.c ../HTKLib/HTKLib.a -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lm ; fi

any hint?

Hi is this the comment section? Im new!

xHSLab
????????

can you at least provide a link to where you got this antique software that needs to be built with the LEGACY compatibility version of gcc

3.4 is a OLD version of gcc

good for software from 10 years ago


there is a unsupported 2.5 year old
"The Hidden Markov Model Toolkit (HTK) from University of Cambridge. "
on git

but that should build with gcc 4.1 or 4.3
but
http://htk.eng.cam.ac.uk/
has 3.5 from this year

you DID REGISTER!!! to get a user name and pass for the code ?? right ???

http://htk.eng.cam.ac.uk/ >> HTK-3.4.1.tar.gz .

@jacintodavila : Looks like HTK doesn't like a 64bits OS. EDIT : See post #6.

There are no issues with a 32bits OS :
htk/ compiles OK, with gcc-4.9.2 !

A 64bits OS : I have the same errors as shown in post #1.
( Debian Jessie, and Slackware64 - 14.1 ).

Sorry everyone. After installing /compat-gcc34-3.4.6-ubuntu1204-1_amd64.deb it all went well. It does work on 64bits!. Thank you.
