extremely disappointing bootstrap problems building gcc on linux :(

extremely disappointing bootstrap problems building gcc on linux :(

[John Sincock]

Hi everybody,

I have tried unsuccessfully to build gcc 3.2.2 and now 3.3, on 
Mandrake 8.2 (with lots of updates).

I have tried building with gcc 2.95.3 , Mandrake (ie Redhat's) 2.96, and 
with 3.04. 

I would just installl a newer gcc from an rpm but newer rpms seem to 
have dependencies on newer glibc etc etc And i would prefer to build 
it myself anyway, because I have heard elsewhere that Mandrake tends 
to do weird things with the configuration of  gcc in their rpms.

I am following the build procedure correctly, but it just doesnt work.

I have built gigabytes of software on my system so I am prety sure there 
is nothing so unusual about it that building gcc should fail so miserably. 

I dont want this email to sound too hypercritical... but, i just dont get it.
How can it possibly be this hard to build gcc, using gcc, on an otherwise
nicely working linux?

Even building GHC was a piece of cake compared to this.

There are no configure errors, telling me i have outdated utilities, or 
missing libs, or anything, the configure goes fine... (well, except for a
warning about an out of date makeinfo, but that is not the problem).

The md5sum on my gcc-3.2.2.tar.bz2 is fine.
The md5sum on my gcc-3.2.2-3.2.3.diff.bz2 is fine.
The md5sum on my gcc-3.3.tar.bz2 is fine.

I am building with:
automake (GNU automake) 1.5
autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.57
glibc-2.2.4-25mdk
kernel-2.4.18.6mdk-1-1mdk (but recompiled with alsa 0.9.0rc2 support)

The gcc3.2.2 builds fail in stage 1 at underscore.c 
and the gcc 3.3 builds fail at gcc-3.3/gcc/cp/g++spec.c as it does not exist

Help! Anyone! Please tell me what is going on here !!

thanks very much for any help,

John

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------3.2.3

I downloaded the diff from 3.2.2 to 3.2.3, and patched the 3.2.2 tarfile 
with:

patch -E -p0 gcc-3.2.2.tar gcc-3.2.2-3.2.3.diff

This seemed to work, but the patched tarfile would not untar correctly...
tar complained of obsolescent base64 headers and many directories ended 
up missing. This was extremely disappointing...

Probably just something dealing with file layout, and
not related to your problems.

Just one more suggestion. You mention that you can
build the gcc 3.3 C compiler? If so, try installing
that, and building the rest of gcc 3.3 with it. Also
when you build, make sure you've got a clean directory
you're building in, and that none of your build
directories are in $PATH.

Oh, and one other thing :-) If you don't mind trying
to build again with gcc 2.96, can you do so, and at
the point that it fails, add "-v" to the command line,
so I can see what's being invoked. For some reason, it
seems the wrong cc1 binary is being invoked by your
installed compiler, but it would be good to find out
why. What exactly is your $PATH when you're building.

Thanks,

Dara

Re: extremely disappointing bootstrap problems building gcc on linux :(

Hi all,

I still have no luck compiling gcc 3.3 :(

I have finally upgraded my glibc to:

glibc-static-devel-2.2.5-16.2mdk
glibc_lsb-2.2.90-4mdk
glibc-devel-2.2.5-16.2mdk
glibc-2.2.5-16.2mdk

But I still get the same errors as before, with
compilation failing at g++spec.c, with different 
errors depending on which compiler i use 
(2.95.3, 2.96, 3.04)

The glibc_lsb is a leftover from the packages i 
already had installed. I left it there as I have no 
idea what it really is and it seems to be numbered 
differently to the proper glibc rpms.

I also upgraded my make to:
make-3.79.1-10mdk

but it made no difference. 

Aargh... I am now giving up, unless someone else
has had the same problem and worked out what the 
solution is.

It looks as if you are building in the source directory; is that
correct?  The installation producedures strongly recommend that GCC be
built in a separate directory, e.g.

  mkdir objdir
  cd objdir
  ../gcc-3.3/configure ...
  make bootstrap
  make install

Sometimes building in the source directory works, but there are enough
weird problems that can happen with it that it's not recommended, and
there are once again discussions about whether it ought to be supported.

Hi Dara (and other ppl),

On Sunday 18 May 2003 04:49 am, you wrote:

I did find those instructions, so all of my attempted builds have been
done in a directory separate from the source. I create the dir for 
configured files, cd into it then run configure to create the configured 
files in that directory, so i am pretty sure im doing that correctly.

For my first few attempted builds with 3.2.2 a month ago, i first 
configured source in a separate directory, as above, then created 
another directory full of symlinks to the configured sources, using 
"lndir". I then ran the make bootsrap in the symlinked dir. I generally 
like building that way, just to keep the object files completely separate
from the source files. I stopped doing that pretty quickly though, 
when things didnt go well - as there was really no need considering 
that the configure process for gcc generates a directory separate from 
the real sources anyway. And to eliminate that as a cause of any 
problems.

Doh!, Sorry, but yeah i worked that out just a little while after my 
first post.

But, unfortunately, even a (properly patched) gcc 3.2.3 still fails at 
the same spot as 3.2.2

This was the last thing I tried, after both of my previous posts to the list.
Removing those configure options didnt make any difference though :(

I am using 3.79 which sounds dangerously close to the problem 3.78 
version. It is the one which came with mandrake 8.2, so I have never had 
to update it so far, and it has compiled a LOT of software now, without 
any problems. I will update this soon and see if I have more luck then, 
unless someone can verify that 3.79 is known to be fine.

Thanks for your sympathy :)  I know the problem is likely to be some 
bollocks-up at my end.. so im sorry if my last emails seemed excessively 
critical. But yeah, i am a bit frustrated with this at the moment.



A few more possibilities that have occurred to me:

1) I thought it might be some garbage in my environment.... I cleaned up 
a bunch of environment variables and reduced my path down to a 
bare minimum. I also had some non-standard shell options.... I turned 
them off too. It didnt help.

2) 3.2.2 and 3.2.3 fail because they cant find libgcc_eh.a (or .so). I
definitely do not have a libgcc_eh of any kind anywhere on my system.
I dont believe 2.95.3 is supposed to have a libgcc_eh, so libgcc_eh 
should be built by the bootstrap before it is used.... but that does 
not seem to be happening when i build with 2.96 or 3.0.4.

If configure detects when i am using 2.96 or 3.0.4 and expects 
those compilers to have a libgcc_eh of their own then maybe that 
could be the problem?

Might i need a -devel package for gcc 3.0.4 maybe, in order to get a few 
bits like gcc_eh !?

3) Something that doesnt make sense to me at all, are the errors I get with 
3.3. I made a mistake before, when i said in my first post that at the 
point where the build fails the file being compiled, g++spec.c doesnt 
exist. Of course it, does, sorry. 

The thing that seems odd to me now with 3.3  is that the builds of 3.3 
all fail at g++spec.c, with various errors depending on which compiler i 
am using, usually from cc1.

But by this point, a new cc1 has already been built ... and if it is the new 
cc1 which is being used, why different error messages depending on which 
compiler i started off with (which should be nearly irrelevant if the new cc1
is being used). And if the new cc1 isnt being used, why isnt it? Is it not
used until stage 2 of the bootstrap? 

Thanks for your comments Dara, especialy re make 3.78,

John

ps I built my own 2.95.3 from source, and installed dejagnu and ran the
testsuites... which it passed fine. So even if my 2.96 and 3.0.4 compilers
have been mandrake-ised to hell, i really dont see why my 2.95.3 doesnt 
work :(

Hi Dara (and other ppl),

I did find those instructions, so all of my attempted builds have been
done in a directory separate from the source. I create the dir for 
configured files, cd into it then run configure to create the configured 
files in that directory, so i am pretty sure im doing that correctly.

For my first few attempted builds with 3.2.2 a month ago, i first 
configured source in a separate directory, as above, then created 
another directory full of symlinks to the configured sources, using 
"lndir". I then ran the make bootsrap in the symlinked dir. I generally 
like building that way, just to keep the object files completely separate
from the source files. I stopped doing that pretty quickly though, 
when things didnt go well - as there was really no need considering 
that the configure process for gcc generates a directory separate from 
the real sources anyway. And to eliminate that as a cause of any 
problems.

Doh!, Sorry, but yeah i worked that out just a little while after my 
first post.

But, unfortunately, even a (properly patched) gcc 3.2.3 still fails at 
the same spot as 3.2.2

This was the last thing I tried, after both of my previous posts to the list.
Removing those configure options didnt make any difference though :(

I am using 3.79 which sounds dangerously close to the problem 3.78 
version. It is the one which came with mandrake 8.2, so I have never had 
to update it so far, and it has compiled a LOT of software now, without 
any problems. I will update this soon and see if I have more luck then, 
unless someone can verify that 3.79 is known to be fine.

Thanks for your sympathy :)  I know the problem is likely to be some 
bollocks-up at my end.. so im sorry if my last emails seemed excessively 
critical. But yeah, i am a bit frustrated with this at the moment.



A few more possibilities that have occurred to me:

1) I thought it might be some garbage in my environment.... I cleaned up 
a bunch of environment variables and reduced my path down to a 
bare minimum. I also had some non-standard shell options.... I turned 
them off too. It didnt help.

2) 3.2.2 and 3.2.3 fail because they cant find libgcc_eh.a (or .so). I
definitely do not have a libgcc_eh of any kind anywhere on my system.
I dont believe 2.95.3 is supposed to have a libgcc_eh, so libgcc_eh 
should be built by the bootstrap before it is used.... but that does 
not seem to be happening when i build with 2.96 or 3.0.4.

If configure detects when i am using 2.96 or 3.0.4 and expects 
those compilers to have a libgcc_eh of their own then maybe that 
could be the problem?

Might i need a -devel package for gcc 3.0.4 maybe, in order to get a few 
bits like gcc_eh !?

3) Something that doesnt make sense to me at all, are the errors I get with 
3.3. I made a mistake before, when i said in my first post that at the 
point where the build fails the file being compiled, g++spec.c doesnt 
exist. Of course it, does, sorry. 

The thing that seems odd to me now with 3.3  is that the builds of 3.3 
all fail at g++spec.c, with various errors depending on which compiler i 
am using, usually from cc1.

But by this point, a new cc1 has already been built ... and if it is the new 
cc1 which is being used, why different error messages depending on which 
compiler i started off with (which should be nearly irrelevant if the new cc1
is being used). And if the new cc1 isnt being used, why isnt it? Is it not
used until stage 2 of the bootstrap? 

Thanks for your comments Dara, especialy re make 3.78,

John

ps I built my own 2.95.3 from source, and installed dejagnu and ran the
testsuites... which it passed fine. So even if my 2.96 and 3.0.4 compilers
have been mandrake-ised to hell, i really dont see why my 2.95.3 doesnt 
work :(

Re: extremely disappointing bootstrap problems building gcc on linux :(

[Dara Hazeghi]

A couple of points.

1. gcc 3.2.X and previous could not be built within their source 
directory: ie "cd gcc-3.2.3 && ./configure && make" generally failed. 
This may account for the -lgcc_eh problem. This was unfortunately not 
well documented.

2. diff files do not apply to tarballs. Period. Diffs apply only to 
regular directories. ie tar -xzf gcc-3.2.2.tar.gz && patch -p0 -E < 
gcc-3.2.2-3.2.3.diff should work fine.

3. --enable-shared and --enable-threads are I believe the default on 
Linux. It appears that you may have found a bug in configure on gcc 
3.3. Please just do a vanilla configure without any options, and see if 
this still fails.

3.5. What version of GNU make are you using? There have been a few 
which have worked rather less than well (I recall 3.78 had significant 
issues).

4. Quite a number of people have successfully built gcc 3.3 on Linux 
(and elsewhere). If you look at 
http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-3.3/buildstat.html , you'll see at least 10 
people have successfully built gcc 3.3. So while I sympathize with your 
frustration, please remember that we do not have access to your exact 
setup, we are a volunteer project, and it is very difficult to test 
every possible environment.

Thanks,

Dara

extremely disappointing bootstrap problems building gcc on linux :(

[John Sincock]

Hi everybody,

I have tried unsuccessfully to build gcc 3.2.2 and now 3.3, on 
Mandrake 8.2 (with lots of updates).

I have tried building with gcc 2.95.3 , Mandrake (ie Redhat's) 2.96, and 
with 3.04. 

I would just installl a newer gcc from an rpm but newer rpms seem to 
have dependencies on newer glibc etc etc And i would prefer to build 
it myself anyway, because I have heard elsewhere that Mandrake tends 
to do weird things with the configuration of  gcc in their rpms.

I am following the build procedure correctly, but it just doesnt work.

I have built gigabytes of software on my system so I am prety sure there 
is nothing so unusual about it that building gcc should fail so miserably. 

I dont want this email to sound too hypercritical... but, i just dont get it.
How can it possibly be this hard to build gcc, using gcc, on an otherwise
nicely working linux?

Even building GHC was a piece of cake compared to this.

There are no configure errors, telling me i have outdated utilities, or 
missing libs, or anything, the configure goes fine... (well, except for a
warning about an out of date makeinfo, but that is not the problem).

The md5sum on my gcc-3.2.2.tar.bz2 is fine.
The md5sum on my gcc-3.2.2-3.2.3.diff.bz2 is fine.
The md5sum on my gcc-3.3.tar.bz2 is fine.

I am building with:
automake (GNU automake) 1.5
autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.57
glibc-2.2.4-25mdk
kernel-2.4.18.6mdk-1-1mdk (but recompiled with alsa 0.9.0rc2 support)

The gcc3.2.2 builds fail in stage 1 at underscore.c 
and the gcc 3.3 builds fail at gcc-3.3/gcc/cp/g++spec.c as it does not exist

Help! Anyone! Please tell me what is going on here !!

thanks very much for any help,

John

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------3.2.3

I downloaded the diff from 3.2.2 to 3.2.3, and patched the 3.2.2 tarfile 
with:

patch -E -p0 gcc-3.2.2.tar gcc-3.2.2-3.2.3.diff

This seemed to work, but the patched tarfile would not untar correctly...
tar complained of obsolescent base64 headers and many directories ended 
up missing. This was extremely disappointing...
