Dear guys and girls, |
2 |
|
3 |
I have successfully bootstraped Gentoo Prefix on some old Fedora Core 3 |
4 |
machine on which I am only a normal user. I am very happy. Gentoo rocks! |
5 |
Alt rocks! Prefix rocks! |
6 |
|
7 |
Now I am locking my target on some AIX machines. But the problems come |
8 |
up in an early stage. |
9 |
|
10 |
First after STFW, I found I need to use prefix-launcher on |
11 |
sf.net. QUESTION: is prefix-launcher an official part of gentoo-prefix? |
12 |
I can see most recent svn ci's. why is it hosted on sf instead of |
13 |
gentoo? |
14 |
|
15 |
But prefix-launcher fail wildly when it's compiling gcc-4.2.4. |
16 |
|
17 |
I was frustrated to do make clean && make install on prefix-launcher |
18 |
again and again. Finally I realized I have to compile gcc-4.2.4 by |
19 |
myself. |
20 |
|
21 |
But there comes the linker problem: |
22 |
|
23 |
There are always some unresolved symbol issue in stage 3 of |
24 |
bootstrap. After another round of STFW, esp. on gcc bugzilla, I think it |
25 |
is some path issue on AIX linker. ld just couldn't find the right |
26 |
library to link against. |
27 |
|
28 |
Any hints and ideas are appreciated. |
29 |
|
30 |
I attach the latest command (cmd) and linking message (debug). |
