error building gcc 3.2.1

error building gcc 3.2.1

[Wes Groleau]

Solaris 2.8 (SPARC)  following the instructions
packed inside the GCC 3.2.1 distribution, "make bootstrap"
did this at the very end:

make[3]: Entering directory `/tmp/gcc-3.2.1/gcc/ada'

make[1]: *** [stage1_build] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/gcc-3.2.1/gcc'

GNAT 3.15 was installed without error before starting the above.
And tested by writing a hello world demo, running "gnatmake demo"
and verifying the demo would run.

On the chance that the next step "make gnatlib_and_tools" would
fix it, I tried that, but it got similar messages.

Any advice?

I had this error too but on GNU/Linux and GNAT 3.15.


I switched back to GNAT 3.14p and I was able to build the whole stuff without
problems.  Ok, I was building gcc 3.2.2 pre-release but I guess this should be
the same with 3.2.1.

May be you can try 3.14p?

This is a Good Idea. I have never got 3.15 (a1 or p) to work, just go
for 3.14 (or GCC-3.*).

FWIW, I built GCC 3.2.1 on Linux with GNAT 3.13p-7.  Unfortunately it has
been over a month, so I don't recall whether I had to fight anything.

Did you "--enable-languages" ada in chapter 5 (static build) or not
bother until chapter 6 ?

Just curious, currently working thru LFS-4.0 and wondering if the
Ada part of gcc will build without problem.

(LFSID : 6263)

I have just built it statically (using GNAT 3.14p) without a problem. I
have just mixed the instructions from the LFS book (from chapter 5,
version 4.0) and the ones from the BLFS book.
