Agreed. I'm sure ARM will support 64-bit someday, so the "right" fix would be to change gcc to make -m32 a no-op for ARM and other 32-bit-only targets, but I'm assuming that approach would be... onerous. ;-) > I've got a homegrown patch that basically removes a lot of the > GNU-ness from the configure to support Sun's compiler, but I don't think I > had to remove -m.... so even that won't help you. That sounds valuable, but I take homegrown to mean not suitable for general inclusion? My patch is not nearly so ambitious. > Yes, please file a JIRA in HADOOP and attach the patch. Done: HADOOP-7276. I linked it to your GNU-ness issue (though I'm guessing JIRA probably told you that already). FYI, I just noticed that Hadoop "one button cluster install" is a goal for the Ubuntu ARM Server release for 11.10 (https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/server-o-arm-server/), so expect a few more patches. ;-) -Trevor
