- Subject: [SM-Discuss] xfree86 compile problems
- Date: Mon, 4 Nov 2002 11:08:00 -0600
Marcus,
I get the same error with xfree86. I have
tried everything I can think of to fix but unsuccessful so far. Reduced
optimazation levels. Tried the ncurses fix outlined by
Julian:
----------------------------------------------------
If you have updated ncurses to version 5.3 after the latest gcc
build,
you might get build errors when trying to compile spells which use ncurses. The problem is that gcc tries to fix headers it finds on the system which might cause in some way trouble and stores them in a private directory. This include directory is used before /usr/include, and ncurses.h has (of course) not been updated in this directory. To make things work again remove /usr/lib/gcc-lib/*/3.2/include/ncurses.h The /usr/include/ncurses.h header will be used afterwards but this should not be a problem in this case. If you get strange compilation errors in ncurses.h, rebuild gcc. ----------------------------------
Downgraded to to ncurses 5.2
---------------------------------------------------
ReCast gcc
---------------------------------------------------
Did another cast system-update after the
rebuild
---------------------------------------------------
My system is stable-sorcery 8.2.0?,
devel-grimoire. All spells udpated and rebuilt(except xfree and kde of
course). I had no real problems converting to gcc3.2/glibc2.3.1 after I
followed the instructions given in the discuss-lists. All spells compiled
ok except xfree. I had a little problem with networking scripts not
containing the mount.sh links, but I installed the links manually. My
system is bootable and no probems except the xfree compile which is maybe a bug?
since at least 1 other, Marcus Martin has it.
Has anyone else ran into this problem? Can
anyone offer a solution?
I had to revert to Win2K to send this
message! Damn!
Thanks,
