I am trying to install Geospatial Data Abstraction Library(gdal) in fedora 9..i configured with ./configure and while trying to execute make i am getting following error...

make: *** [port-target] Error 2

can anyone help me please.........
is this a kernel error ???

vinaytp,

You have told gcc to build a 64 bit binary with the -m64 option but your gcc does not support that option.
Please post the output of and the content of /proc/cpuinfo

I guess, it is a problem with x86_64 ...
wrong CXX flags ?
EDIT : Like NeddySeagoon said, when I was writing the post !

Have a look in 'gdal.spec' from gdal-1.5.1-5.fc9.src.rpm
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pu.../source/SRPMS/
( The spec file is attached as gdal.spec.txt ).

Also please Google .. gdal cxxflags ..
There may be some suggestions.
.....
Compiles with no errors on an x86 Fedora 9.
