Dear developers, I tried to build GCC 4.6.0 and it failed. The error seems to come from Binutils so I post here. Here is what I did.
Under gNewSense metad (a freed version of Debian Lenny), I first built binutils 2.21 as follows: cd binutils-build CC="gcc -B/usr/bin/" ../binutils-2.20/configure \ --prefix=/tools --disable-nls --disable-werror make make install make -C ld clean make -C ld LIB_PATH=/tools/lib cp -v ld/ld-new /tools/bin cd .. rm -rf binutils-2.21 rm -rf binutils-build I ran some tests: `type ld` gave me "ld is /tools/bin/ld". All went well, so I tried to build GCC 4.6.0 (with GMP 5.0.2, MPFR 3.0.1 and MPC 0.8.2): cd gcc-build CC="gcc -B/usr/bin/" ../gcc-4.6.O/configure --prefix=/tools \ --disable-nls --disable-multilib --enable-shared \ --enable-languages=c make bootstrap After about 5 hours on Loongson 2F (Lemote Yeeloong), I encounter the following error message: /tools/mips64el-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libc.so when searching for -lc /tools/mips64el-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/ld: /usr/lib/crti.o: ABI is incompatible with that of the selected emulation /tools/mips64el-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/ld: failed to merge target specific data of file /usr/lib/crti.o [snip] /tools/mips64el-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/ld: BFD (GNU Binutils) 2.21 assertion fail ../../binutils-2.21/bfd/elfxx-mips.c:3161 /tools/mips64el-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/ld: not enough GOT space for local GOT entries /tools/mips64el-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/ld: BFD (GNU Binutils) 2.21 internal error, aborting at ../../binutils-2.21/bfd/ elfxx-mips.c line 9224 in _bfd_mips_elf_relocate_section /tools/mips64el-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/ld: Please report this bug. collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[3]: *** [libgcc_s.so] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/opt/mygnulinux/build/gcc-build/ mips64el-unknown-linux-gnu/libgcc' make[2]: *** [all-stage1-target-libgcc] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/opt/mygnulinux/build/gcc-build' make[1]: *** [stage1-bubble] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/opt/mygnulinux/build/gcc-build' make: *** [bootstrap] Error 2 FYI, my .bashrc: set +h umask 022 SYSDIR=/opt/mygnulinux LC_ALL=POSIX PATH=/tools/bin:/bin:/usr/bin DOWNLOADDIR=${SYSDIR}/sources BUILDDIR=${SYSDIR}/build MABI="n32" BUILD_MABI="-mabi=${MABI}" PS1='\[\e[32m\]\t\[\e[00m\]:\[\e[32m\]\W\[\e[00m\]\$ ' export SYSDIR LC_ALL PATH DOWNLOADDIR BUILDDIR MABI BUILD_MABI export PS1 My .bash_profile: exec env -i HOME=${HOME} TERM=${TERM} PS1=${PS1} /bin/bash System's GCC is 4.4.5. Where did I go wrong?
