Hi there, I'm trying to follow the instructions at https://bitbucket.org/goshawk/gdc/wiki/Home to build GDC from the mercurial repos, but I've not been successful. Not being familiar with the GCC build process myself, I was wondering if anyone could shed a bit of light on the problem?
I should state ahead of time that I ran ./gcc/d/setup-gcc.sh with -v2 and my system is x86_64 running Ubuntu 10.10. It fouls up during compilation of libphobos. I get this: gcc -g -O2 -g -Wall -I ../../../../libphobos/../include -c -o config/x3.o ../../../../libphobos/config/x3.c In file included from ../../../../libphobos/config/x3.c:1: /usr/include/string.h:34: fatal error: stddef.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated. I have tried sticking a '-v' in to that call to gcc and found this: gcc version 4.4.5 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.4.4-14ubuntu5) COLLECT_GCC_OPTIONS='-v' '-g' '-O2' '-g' '-Wall' '-I' '../../../../libphobos/../include' '-c' '-o' 'config/x3.o' '-mtune=generic' /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.4.5/cc1 -quiet -v -I ../../../../libphobos/../include -iprefix /mnt/data/home/packages/gdc/dev/gcc-4.4.5/objdir/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/32/libphobos/../lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.4.5/ ../../../../libphobos/config/x3.c -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -quiet -dumpbase x3.c -mtune=generic -auxbase-strip config/x3.o -g -g -O2 -Wall -version -fstack-protector -o /tmp/ccakn1ji.s ignoring nonexistent directory "/mnt/data/home/packages/gdc/dev/gcc-4.4.5/objdir/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/32/libphobos/../lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.4.5/include" ignoring nonexistent directory "/mnt/data/home/packages/gdc/dev/gcc-4.4.5/objdir/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/32/libphobos/../lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.4.5/include-fixed" ignoring nonexistent directory "/mnt/data/home/packages/gdc/dev/gcc-4.4.5/objdir/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/32/libphobos/../lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.4.5/../../../../x86_64-linux-gnu/include" ignoring nonexistent directory "/usr/local/include/x86_64-linux-gnu" ignoring nonexistent directory "/mnt/data/home/packages/gdc/dev/gcc-4.4.5/objdir/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/32/libphobos/../lib/gcc/../../lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.4.5/include" ignoring nonexistent directory "/mnt/data/home/packages/gdc/dev/gcc-4.4.5/objdir/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/32/libphobos/../lib/gcc/../../lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.4.5/include-fixed" ignoring nonexistent directory "/mnt/data/home/packages/gdc/dev/gcc-4.4.5/objdir/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/32/libphobos/../lib/gcc/../../lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.4.5/../../../../x86_64-linux-gnu/include" #include "..." search starts here: #include <...> search starts here: ../../../../libphobos/../include /usr/local/include /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu /usr/include End of search list. Which explains why it can't find /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.4.5/include/stddef.h (which does exist). Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
