Hi all,
I've encountered a build error with the latest R source (2.8.1). This is a
relatively fresh install of OS Leopard (10.5.6), latest developer tools
installed, gcc/g++/gfortran version 4.4 installed (via
http://hpc.sourceforge.net/, after which I updated the gcc & g++ symlinks
to
link to the 4.4 versions; gfortran used the 4.4 version without updating
the
symlink).
Ultimately I wanted to instalI pnmath, so as per a previous thread (
http://www.nabble.com/Parallel-R-tt18173953.html#a18196319) I built with:
LIBS=-lgomp ./configure --with-blas='-framework vecLib'
make -j4
The configure runs without a hitch, but make fails, throwing an error
seemingly related to qdCocoa:
making qdCocoa.d from qdCocoa.m
<built-in>:0: internal compiler error: Abort trap
Below is the output of configure, followed by the output of make (error is
in the last 10 lines). Any suggestions to fix this would be greatly
appreciated.
Ouch. As you probably realize, this is very Mac-specific, and the actual bug
is in GCC and has nothing to do with R.
I don't think there's any obvious way to fix this, but there might be a
temporary workaround. I'd consider making the .d file by hand, so that make
doesn't even try to build it. You can probably rather easily create one based
on one of the other .d files in the same directory (.d files are usually
overkill, it is probably not necessary to get it completely right.)
Next question is whether this GCC can handle .m files at all....
It can: at least the released versions can provided the ObjC language is
installed. Most likely if making the .d file is an error then actual
compilation will be too.
Note that this is a non-Apple build of a non-FSF version of a non-released
version of gcc. I think the workaround is to use Apple compilers for
Mac-specific code. So either use --with-aqua with Apple compilers, or
--without-aqua with others. From memory (I am not on my Mac right now),
the latter will not build the quartz code at all: certainly
src/library/grDevices/src/Makefile suggests so.
I'd suggest reporting Mac-specific problems on R-sig-mac, and problems
with building R on experimental systems (including unreleased compilers)
to the system's developers or perhaps R-devel.
making qdBitmap.d from qdBitmap.c
making qdPDF.d from qdPDF.c
making qdCocoa.d from qdCocoa.m
<built-in>:0: internal compiler error: Abort trap
Please submit a full bug report,
with preprocessed source if appropriate.
See <http://gcc.gnu.org/bugs.html> for instructions.
