Bug 10570 – sdlsound ebuild: compile needs /usr/lib/libsupc++.a

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Mike Gardiner (RETIRED) 2002-11-11 03:19:03 UTC]

during the emerge of sdl-sound i get:

i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc: /usr/lib/libsupc++.a: No such file or directory
i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc: /usr/lib/libsupc++.a: No such file or directory
make[2]: *** [libSDL_sound.la] Error 1

which causes the compile to fail, and so the ebuild as well. i'm not sure what
package this file is provided by, i have /usr/lib/libsupc++.la but thats not
what it's after.

cheers

What gcc version and revision ?

 # emerge gentoolkit
 # epm -q gcc

and paste here.

[Comment 2 Mike Gardiner (RETIRED) 2002-11-11 17:53:11 UTC]

as requested.

root@zen driver # /usr/sbin/epm -q gcc
gcc-3.1-r5

i'm using a 1.3a iso for my install.

If possible, consider using 1.4, as there are some issues with 1.3 (gcc related)
and its not really maintained anymore.

If not, backup /usr/lib/libsupc++.la, delete it and try again.

If you do get back, and this is still an issue, please reopen.
