I'm fairly certain a reinstall is going to be a waste of your time, but I could be wrong. You might try searching for the opcodes that are causing the problem. They have probably already been reported (I reported about a half dozen or so myself). Also see https://bugs.kde.org/buglist.cgi?bug_status=__all__&content=illegal%20instruction You might be able to work around it by removing the `-march=native` from CXXFLAGS. Open GNUmakefile and delete the line that adds it. However, you will loose a fair amount of performance because the source files depend on some of the options included in `-march=native`. You best bet at this point is probably work from Master. After 5.6.5 we changed the model to Base+SIMD. Base C++ files are fine without an ISA, and SIMD files get an ISA added when needed. As far as I know, lack of `-march=native` no longer has a material affect on performance. Base+SIMD also had the effect of side-stepping most the missing VEX codecs. I don't recall experiencing the problem since we switched to Base+SIMD. Jeff -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "Crypto++ Users" Google Group.
