gdb fails to build universal

Reported by: jonnyflash-owlgod Owned by: dweber@…
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 1.9.2
Keywords: universal Cc: shapovalow@…, alex.mailhuhn@…
Port: gdb

Description

gdb fails to build during after running a

port upgrade outdated

command.

I've attached the log, which seems to refer to a cryptic file that lipo is having trouble with.

I'm running OS X 10.6.6, all updates installed, on a MacBook Pro.

I've attached the full log, but these are the(to me) bits that seem relevant:

I'm seeing the same problem.

By a quick look at the offending code in libbfd.c, the compiler warning looks unsubstantiated. Hence, wondering if building w/o -Werror would do. Not sure how to do that from macports.

This indeed helps directly pointing to the core of the problem: After disabling the -Werror compiler flag (adding --disable-werror to the function call configure.args-append inside the Portfile) the "port build gdb" command still yields an error message in the file "/opt/local/var/macports/logs/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_devel_gdb/gdb/main.log":

:info:build /usr/bin/gcc-4.2 -O2 -I/opt/local/include -arch x86_64 -arch i386   -I. -I. -I./common -I./config -DLOCALEDIR="\"/opt/local/share/locale\"" -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I./../include/opcode -I./../opcodes/.. -I./../readline/.. -I../bfd -I./../bfd -I./../include -I../libdecnumber -I./../libdecnumber  -I./gnulib -Ignulib  -DMI_OUT=1 -DTUI=1  -I/opt/local/include -I/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/include -I/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/include  -Wall -Wdeclaration-after-statement -Wpointer-arith -Wformat-nonliteral -Wno-pointer-sign -Wno-unused -Wunused-value -Wunused-function -Wno-switch -Wno-char-subscripts  -c -o gdb.o -MT gdb.o -MMD -MP -MF .deps/gdb.Tpo gdb.c

This seems to be an incompatibility with the multi architechture build in the +universal variant, which is the only one available for gdb. Is there any way to switch off the compiler flag "-arch i386"? or the other one? and include a combination of single architecture builds with "lipo"? I have no idea what the flags -M... are used for and who created the Makefiles that contain them. Can these be circumvented?

Resolution: fixed
Status: newclosed

Switched to use muniversal in r89680. It expects BFD_HOST_64_BIT to be a single value that can be evaluated at configure time, and it looks like there might be some others like that as well.
