Help to compile toolchain please

I'm trying to build a dedicated version of amule than can work with my ISP, so, thanks to some of you guys, I've installed VMWare player and Kubuntu VMW image to use Linux on my PC. I've downloaded and installed all development tools and all things to compile optware applications:

Code:

cd /opt svn co http://svn.nslu2-linux.org/svnroot/optware/trunk optware cd optware In the file /opt/optware/Makefile: OPTWARE_TARGET=oleg make directories ipkg-utils make toolchain

and here my problem.
Compile works fine, but entering in /toolchain/buildroot I have a lot of errors and compile ends:

Code:

Don't know what else to try, my Linux skill level is at the beginning... :(

Hope someone could help me.

Max

try different gcc version. Eg. 4.1.1

In my VMware Kubuntu 7 image, gcc is version 4.1.2.
It really seems that "make toolchain" search for gcc 4.1.1.
I'll try how to downgrade to 4.1.1 manually, beacause package is not available using dpkg in Kubuntu. No way to change toolchain configure file to force 4.1.2 usage (if it will produce a working code) INSTEAD OF 4.1.1 ?

Thanks, Max

Actually I am using 4.1.2 gcc compiler and everything works!

Oh gosh !....
Really don't know what else to try... I reinstalled VMware and Linux Kubuntu 7 image, updated all packages and reinstalled optware svn...
Compiler stops always at the same point.... :mad:

Can someone please analyze this output code ?

The only strange things I'm able to understand are some missed header files:

Code:

conf.c:6:19: error: ctype.h: Nessun file o directory conf.c:7:20: error: stdlib.h: Nessun file o directory conf.c:8:20: error: string.h: Nessun file o directory conf.c:9:20: error: unistd.h: Nessun file o directory conf.c:10:18: error: time.h: Nessun file o directory conf.c:11:22: error: sys/stat.h: Nessun file o directory

and a lot of referencies to gcc 4.1.1.

Help please ! :(

Thanks, Max

Code:

apt-get install gcc

Thanks for your patience... I'm really giving up...
It doesn't work for me.
I've found that if I go to /opt/unstable/toolchain/buildroot, and do a make config, I have always the same error:

So my problem seems located here...

Max

I have assumed that you have only gcc-4.1.2-base and not the whole toolchain.
Verify if simple hello, again works for you. Or maybe try
apt-get install build-essential

You are missing libc headers.

You're right oleo,
downloading build-essential and running again make toolchain, I installed other packages like bison, m4, gettext, flex, then compiler stopped again with a problem downloading binutils-2.17.50.0.8.tar.bz2 from ftp.kernel.org... connection rejected... :(

I've just checked with Filezilla and the ftp server is really down...

What a lucky week guys ! :)

I'll retry.

Thanks again for your help and patience.

It seems I'm loosing this battle... I hope to win this war against Linux... ;)

This time I'm retrying to compile under VMware player/Ubuntu 7.04.
Well, to go on I manually changed /opt/optware/toolchain/buildroot/toolchain/binutils/binutils.mk file,
replacing:

Code:

BINUTILS_SITE:=ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/devel/binutils

with

Code:

BINUTILS_SITE:=http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/devel/binutils

Now compilation continue downloading from kernel.org binutils-2.17.50.0.8.

Some minutes of clear run and then a new stop; compiler needs makeinfo, texinfo and GNU gcc, but these tools are correctly installed.... no way even reinstalling:

Code:

Still waiting for better times... :(

Max

The most funny thing is that I'm having all this troubles trying to compile a modded version of aMuled for WL-500gP...
I've just succesfully compiled, installed and run the same sources for Kubuntu (using the same VM machine), at first attempt... but still have problems with toolchain for WL500...:confused:

Max

Finally I win the war against toolchain.
I've cleaned up my Kubuntu installation, installed a lot of other development tools required to compile other packages, and then, turning back to optware, finally correctly compiled toolchain.
It's not clear to me what makes the difference, it should be a great thing if someone can put a list of the necessary packages needed to compile wl500 toolchain, starting from a simple linux base installation.

Toolchain compiled, first problem compiling amule for wl500... but now it's too late.... I'll be back soon... :eek:

Thanks al37818 and oleo for your great help, I really appreciated it.

Compiling the new amule CVS v2.20...

Do you know how to compile the new CVS version of emule (v2.20 which already supports protocol obfuscation) for the WL500?

Using Ubuntu 7.10 I've already setup the cross-compilation environment by successfully installing and compiling toolchain/buildroot.

Now the question is that I really don't know how to compile the amule CVS tarball... Do I need to write a custom makefile?

Thanks for your help!
