factor.h, omalloc.h...

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge -u singular
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
emerge stops with errors at the configure stage

Expected Results:  
successful compile

log file for configuration produced with Singular ebuild

Hi,

Could you please also post the output of the actual emerge. I suspect
that things fail in one of the sub-directories. The errors in the config.log 
you posted (assuming it is the one from the top directory) should be non
fatal.

Thanks,
Markus

I looked at it briefly -- the "configure" stage has the "--with-MP" flag set,
which must be looking for some package that isn't installed. My guess is that a
little upstream research will come up with an answer, but I won't have a chance
to do it until tonight. 

Yeah, I enabled the --with-MP flag in 3.0.3 since it works fine
on all my x86 dev machines. If it causes trouble with amd64
I have no problem going back to --without-MP unless we can
come up with a fix. Unfortunately, I can't really look into this 
since I don't have access to an amd64 box.

cheers,
Markus

I have one ... tell me what you need to test and I'll test it tonight. :)

Well, if it compiles for you on amd64 as is (i.e. --with-MP)
please let me know. In that case we'll have to wait for rainer
to give us some more detail as to where and how
configure fails. Thanks!

The ebuild fails in configure on my AMD64. I haven't tried it on an x86 yet.
Meanwhile, I unpacked the source and if you look at the top directory, you'll
see

So "MP" is part of the source distribution. I did a "configure" and a "make" in
*this* directory but it's not done yet, so I don't know if it went ahead and
did the MP build. Where does the ebuild do its "configure"?

emerge --info on x86 where it succeeded

Well ... I just confirmed it dies on AMD64 and works on x86, but I didn't read
through the logs for clues -- just posted them here. Meanwhile, a straight
build from the source tarball ran to completion on the AMD64, but I didn't have
the full build instructions for the "share" tarball. This is just plain bizarre
... it has to be something simple I'm not seeing right in front of my nose. :)

I've disabled MP again in the ebuild until we've figured out what
the trouble is on amd64. 

The problem is that configure in the Singular directory fails. 
I had a look at the file and from the amd64 output you posted
I don't see any way it could reach the particular point where
it eventually fails. This leads me to suspect that something 
bad is happening during autoconf on amd64 that causes this.
Hence, would you please be able to diff the configure files
in Singular-3.0.3/Singular on amd64 and x86 AFTER the
autoconf step. If this turns up to much garbage please just
post the amd64 configure file generated by autoconf.

Thanks,
Markus

recursive diff of work trees (x86 and amd64) after emerge

OK ... I started this up using the following commands on both the x86 and amd64

# cd /var/tmp/portage/sci-mathematics
# rm -fr singular-3.0.3
# FEATURES='keepwork keeptemp' emerge -v singular

The plan was to diff the whole build trees for the two machines. Well ... the
x86 emerge completed normally as expected, leaving behind a build tree. So I
went over to the amd64 and started it up. 

There were some complaints during the configure step, but it ran all the way to
completion and left behind an amd64 build tree. So ... here's the diff ... but
I think it's installed now.

Thanks a lot! Unfortunately, I didn't find anything in the diff
that would tell me what the problem on amd64 could be when "--with-MP" is
turned on. Hence, I'd suggest we leave "--without-MP" for now
until somebody is able to provide a patch that allows compilation
on amd64 with MP turned on.

cheers,
Markus

Since after removing "--with-MP" singular seems to compile again
on amd64 I am going to close this as fixed. Please feel free
to reopen if any of you should be able to provide a patch that
resolves the MP issues on amd64.

Thanks,
Markus
