LinuxQuestions.org - [SOLVED] motion not building on RPi (Slackware ARM 14.2)

Motion fails to build on Slackware ARM 14.2 (RaspberryPi3 4.4.16-v7+)-

"uname -m" returns "armv7l"

Ran the Slackbuild and it failed with:

Code:

*** Error in `gcc': double free or corruption (top): 0x00310550 ***

Edited the MOTION configure script-
CHANGED:

Code:

*)

                        CPU_OPTIONS="-march=native -mtune=native"

                        ;;

                esac

TO:

Code:

*)

                        CPU_OPTIONS="-march=armv7-a -mtune=arm7"

                        ;;

                esac

Ran Slackbuild script again and it failed with:

Code:

  /tmp/ccQG2Q9Q.s: Assembler messages:

  /tmp/ccQG2Q9Q.s:1452: Error: bad instruction `emms'

  <builtin>: recipe for target 'ffmpeg.o' failed

  make: *** [ffmpeg.o] Error 1

Edited the MOTION ffmpeg.c file-
CHANGED:

Code:

  #ifndef __SSE_MATH__

    __asm__ __volatile__ ( "emms");

  #endif

TO:

Code:

  /* #ifndef __SSE_MATH__

    __asm__ __volatile__ ( "emms");

  #endif */

Motion compiled after that.
