error while compiling gcc4.5.3 on rhel x86_64
 

hello,
Friends, I am facing error while compiling gcc4.5.3 on rhel 6.0, following are some of pre required information. whic I think would be useful for you to analyze problem.(I'm doing this whole thing on virtual machine running under kvm rhel6.0)

$ uname -r
2.6.32-71.el6.x86_64

$ gcc -v
Using built-in specs.
Target: x86_64-redhat-linux
Configured with: ../configure --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --with-bugurl=http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla --enable-bootstrap --enable-shared --enable-threads=posix --enable-checking=release --with-system-zlib --enable-__cxa_atexit --disable-libunwind-exceptions --enable-gnu-unique-object --enable-languages=c,c++,objc,obj-c++,java,fortran,ada --enable-java-awt=gtk --disable-dssi --with-java-home=/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-gcj-1.5.0.0/jre --enable-libgcj-multifile --enable-java-maintainer-mode --with-ecj-jar=/usr/share/java/eclipse-ecj.jar --disable-libjava-multilib --with-ppl --with-cloog --with-tune=generic --with-arch_32=i686 --build=x86_64-redhat-linux
Thread model: posix
gcc version 4.4.4 20100726 (Red Hat 4.4.4-13) (GCC)


Initaly I stared with just installing gcc and some group of "developement tools" available from local repo but as I faced dependencies error eventully I endedup compiling other libraries and packages like mpfr, mpc libelf, ppl etc. All these custome compiles are kept on my user's home directory have mentioned their versions on their folder-name itselfe


Following is the command I have used while configuring gcc

./configure --prefix=/usr/local --sysconfdir=/etc --with-mpfr=/home/student/mpfr-3.0.1/ --with-mpc=/home/student/mpc-0.8.2/ --with-libelf=/home/student/libelf-0.8.12/ --with-ppl=/home/student/ppl-0.11.2/


After above command I have run this

make > ~/gcc.out 2> ~/gcc.err

I am going to post some important part of this files in here and for rest I will posted their output on pastebin and provide links to keep it short overe here.


I think this can be a quick help (taken from config.log)
$ grep error config.log

1) There can be no "./configure". GCC requires a build folder outside the source.

2) --prefix=/usr/local : Not usable.
Binaries and libraries will mix up with the system compiler in /usr/.
→ --prefix=/usr/local/gcc453/ can be used.
Then make links to /usr/bin/, like
cd /usr/bin/ && ln -s /usr/local/gcc453/bin/gcc gcc453
&& ln -s /usr/local/gcc453/bin/g++ g++453

3) gmp, mpfr, mpc must be unpacked into the gcc-4.5.3/ source folder.
( Same versions as the RHEL system gmp, mpfr, mpc if possible.)


The configure line goes like this :
../gcc-4.5.3/configure --prefix=/usr/local/gcc453 --enable-shared --enable-threads=posix --enable-__cxa_atexit --enable-clocale=gnu --enable-languages=c,c++ --disable-multilib --with-system-zlib --with-gmp-include=$(pwd)/gmp --with-gmp-lib=$(pwd)/gmp/.libs

More info here, post # 2

Thank you for your reply, I will try it tonight, and let you know the results :)


Thank you

well My friend I have tried as you said. but results are still the same.

$ make > ~/gcc.out 2> ~/gcc.err

but out put is same.

Not recommended. Default would be /home/student/tmp/
And in /home/student/tmp/ : 2 folders >> gcc-4.5.3/ and gcc-build/.
Won't do. You will have to delete "gcc-4.5.3/" and start from scratch.
GCC install no files to /etc/. GCC has no "sysconfdir".
Will not work. Use the text in post # 2.
Don't. Install elfutils-libelf-devel with yum.
( ppl : I don't know. May be usable, if you install ppl to /usr/ or /usr/local/.)

@knudfl
I have also tried to compile it via method similar to that of mentioned is post #2. Tho I have not followed exact instructions, right now I am going to read once again web-links give by you. And will try to exactly follow your as per your instructions. Please check the post #5 and tell me if there is any thing wrong in that method apart from those which you have mentioned in above post.Thank you for your valuable time and suggestions I'm learning new things from you. :)

Thank you.

"GCC 4.5.3 for EL 6"
 

! The versions must be these : gmp-4.3.1 , mpfr-2.4.1 , ppl-0.10.2 !
Mpc-0.8.2 is OK. ( Is compiled into the binaries and then not used any more.)

libelf and ppl has nothing to do in the gcc-4.5.3/ folder.
The ppl packages (ppl and cloog-ppl) must be installed :
cloog-ppl-devel.x86.64 (0.15.7-1.2.el6) , ppl-devel.x86_64 (0.10.2-11.el6).

**elf must be elfutils-0.152 : rpmbuild --rebuild elfutils-0.152-1.el6.src.rpm
http://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/lin...-1.el6.src.rpm
( http://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/lin...t/en/os/SRPMS/ )
.. and then install the 5 packages elfutils-0.152-1.el6.x86_64.rpm
elfutils-libelf-0.152-1.el6.x86_64.rpm elfutils-libs-0.152-1.el6.x86_64.rpm
elfutils-devel-0.152-1.el6.x86_64.rpm elfutils-libelf-devel-0.152-1.el6.x86_64.rpm
Or get them here http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux...4/os/Packages/

It didn't worked even the way mentioned in post above, will retry from scratch and update this post with logs and stuffs if it fails again.
I have 1 question!!
I am trying all this stuff on virtual machine. if I try those on base machine could it change things?(ie change failure to success)"my basic understanding tell me that things should not differ on actual machine and virtual machine when virtual machine is fully virtualized"

Thank You
Pushkar

Possible causes for errors : Some text change in the configure line.
The only option for editing is the "--prefix".

If you replace or omit the "$(pwd)" stuff, things go wrong.
( The location for the 2 times '$(pwd)' is actually the gcc-build/ folder.)

And # 'yum install cloog-ppl-devel elfutils' is a must.

GCC doesn't care, if it's an hd installed OS or a virtual one.

..

well when I was going through prequisite.html file from INSTALL section I have found that minimum version of gmp-4.3.2 and mpfr-2.4.2 is required. :)

gonna try with those now :)

Well after going through the INSTALL manual I have downloaded specified versions of sources for required libs ie (gmp-4.3.2, mpfr-2.4.2, mpc-0.8.2, ppl-0.10.2, cloog-ppl-0.15.10) downloaded most of these from sources mentioned in perquisite.html file in INSTALL folder of gcc-4.5.3 source. I am not going to repate those extraction and configure steps here because those are same.

this time I have encountered while running make
following error (check line number 69)
http://pastebin.com/CGwKrNBj
which took me to following link
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=45993

well retiring for tonight.
will come back with either solution or new errors tomorrow. :D

Thank you
Pushkar

sorry I missed out this post yesterday may be because of slow Internet connection or I was too much focused on reading my errors. saw this today. will dig about it :D
Hurray Got new thing to start with :D,
@knudfl
I really appreciae your patience, with someone noob like me :D , really Thankful to you :)
*prays successful compile this time* ok will document each and every step this time, well I have also mentioned some information in posts above :) hope you have gone through them :D

Thank you
Pushkar

temperory victory :D :P
 

well good news this time :D compilation succeded even tho with errors it did compleated :D

&& make 2> ~/gcc.err

here while running make I was hit by an error, and the make process was stopped. I ran make command again, again it stoped and exited with error messeg with giving some output, I run make command once again :P and BINGO some avtivity started and continewed for around next 30 minuts and make exited with 0 exit status

then I run
$ make install
$ echo $?
0
I guess it has installed not sure how it will work tho. Hope it is good enough for compiling kernel 3.X :D

well here is the ~/gcc.err file output if any one intrested

http://pastebin.com/AK3CU2VU

Not declaring this solved until kernel 3.x is compiled sucessfully, well if this compilations throws any error in future, You will see me her again :D, well I also wanted to builtup rpm for this build any suggestion link refrences ? I want to migrate this gcc from vm to my host machine. Please suggest me some way, I would preffer to keep it preserved in from of rpm :D

Now next thing I need is to use this binaries for compiling new kernel. Can any one give me refrence of HoTo?, I am going to google it any way :D

Thank you
Pushkar
