[SOLVED] avr-libc LaTeX documents won't compile in Slackware 13.1

spudgunner · 10-07-2010, 01:49 PM

I'm attempting in install the necessary libraries and programs to work with AVR chips. I got 13.1 slackbuilds for avr-gcc and avr-binutils but I could only find a 13.0 slackbuild for avr-libc. I attempted to compile it but it fails with warnings and errors about LaTeX not being proper and not being able to find a .tex file. I tried finding a way to turn off compiling the documentation but I've been unsuccessful.

Any suggestions?

The slackbuild has

Code:

--enable-doc \

which creates the tex dependency, the package builds fine without it, and even creates documentation, just not fancy documentation. I thought it was a strange to enable it in first place, so I removed that line from the slackbuild.

Gaaa how did I miss that? Oh well, thanks for your help. I'll be back if something still goes wrong, but it looked like the rest of the package built properly.

spudgunner · 10-07-2010, 07:06 PM

I tried taking the "--enable-doc" out of the Slackbuild but it still doesn't work, and this time its not telling me there's errors or anything. It ends with

Code:

test -z "/usr/bin" || /bin/mkdir -p "/tmp/SBo/package-avr-libc/usr/bin"
 /bin/ginstall -c 'avr-man' '/tmp/SBo/package-avr-libc/usr/bin/avr-man'
make[2]: Leaving directory `/tmp/SBo/avr-libc-1.6.7/scripts'
make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/SBo/avr-libc-1.6.7/scripts'

make[2]: Leaving directory `/tmp/SBo/avr-libc-1.6.7'
make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/SBo/avr-libc-1.6.7'

and just stops. What am I doing wrong?

Here is the slackbuild I used on 13.1 with verstion 1.7.0, I changed a few other things as well. Hopefully it will work for you:

Code:

#!/bin/sh

  LIBDIRSUFFIX=""
elif [ "$ARCH" = "i686" ]; then
  SLKCFLAGS="-O2 -march=i686 -mtune=i686"

It compiled! I will test it out soon and let you know if anything goes wrong.

Suggestion: Don't translate the error message to something opaque. Just copy/paste the original error message.

I had no problem compiling the latex doc of avr-libc 1.7.0.

When I cannot compile something, I think it's a bad habit to first blame the compiler -- because I am not a guru.

XGizzmo · 10-08-2010, 10:53 PM

90% of LaTeX errors are from using "su" instead of "su -". Anytime you are using SlackBuilds from SlackBuilds.org
you need to use "su -" and or "source /etc/profile" this helps ensure you have tex and other things in your $PATH.
If you use "su" tex is not in your $PATH.

rworkman · 10-10-2010, 02:55 PM

I just pushed a new avr-libc build into my git branch, so it will be part of the next public update. In the meantime, you can see it here: http://slackbuilds.org/gitweb/?p=sla...b1cd1395276d82
(note: that link will be broken after the update is pushed)

That script worked properly, and the Arduino board works. I'm gonna mark this as solved but I'm trying to figure out how to connect the board without having to change permissions on ttyUSB0 every time. So far I've added myself to groups uucp and tty as per instructions at http://www.arduino.cc/playground/Linux/Slackware and I've googled a bunch but can't quite get it figured out.

Hint:

Code:

50-udev-default.rules:KERNEL=="tty[A-Z]*[0-9]|pppox[0-9]*|ircomm[0-9]*|noz[0-9]*|rfcomm[0-9]*", GROUP="dialout"

:-)

spudgunner · 10-14-2010, 04:56 PM

Thanks for the line of code. I noticed the "dialout" group section and figured adding myself to the "dialout" group might work, so I did it and it did.
