[htdig] compile issues

1999-09-08 Thread Daniel Stringfield


I'm trying to install htdig on a Cobalt Qube 2700WG.  When I run
/configure, I get to the point at which it checks for a c++ compiler.
it states that the c++ compiler can not create executables and stops.

After looking through the online FAQs for htdig, I did see that you need
libstdc++ which wasn't installed. I got it installed, and that does not
fix it.  For those of you not familiar with the Cobalt Qube, it runs a
modified version of Redhat Linux, on a MIPS cpu.

Daniel,

Glad you hit this before I did, I was about to try htdig on a qube.

At any rate, to compile htdig you need the c++ (such as g++) compiler, not
just libstdc++. I would guess there is an rpm on Cobalt's site for g++, if
not htdig itself.

Good Luck!

Well, c++ is there, although I want to upgrade its version.  Its at 2.7.2
currently.

Yes, the package you need is egcs-c++.  There is also a problem with the
standard C++ libraries on Cobalt systems, so you need to get an update
(for both libstd++ and egcs-c++) from the Cobalt FTP site.

According to Tomas Garcia Ferrari: 
 
 Can you let us know, for the record, what the fix is? We've had a few 
 other reports of segmentation faults on Cobalt servers. Did you just 
 have to install update packages for the egcs libraries? Where did you 
 obtain them? Thanks. 
 
 I've installed this 
 binutils-2.8.1-3C1.mips.rpm 
 egcs-1.0.2-9.mips.rpm 
 egcs-c++-1.0.2-9.mips.rpm 
 egcs-g77-1.0.2-9.mips.rpm 
 egcs-objc-1.0.2-9.mips.rpm 
 libstdc++-2.8.0-9.mips.rpm 
 libstdc++-devel-2.8.0-9.mips.rpm 
 plus: 
 gcc-2.7.2-C2.mips.rpm 
 (using the --force option for this). 
 
 I've downloaded them from the experimental directory of the cobalt ftp 
 server.
