Description Stuart Shelton 2008-02-10 22:37:24 UTC
sys-apps/which-2.16 compile correctly on IRIX.  2.19, however, outputs "checking dependency style of cc... none" and then:

... so is the problem that the compiler is creating 'tilde.pch' when the build script expects '.deps/tilde.TPo'.

Nothing else has (yet) hit this issue, so is this a problem with the build system for which rather than the compiler?

It seems to me that the compiler invocation doesn't have a -o option, so indeed the output of the compiler may mismatch with what the build script thinks it is.  Not sure how easy it is to add -o bla.Tpo ot something there.
Comment 2 Stuart Shelton 2008-02-18 13:21:51 UTC
Slight problem with the wrapper I'm using here: with depmode forced to 'pch', the compiler is invoked with:

cc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I/opt/portage/usr/incTENV:zeroinit_in_bss=ON -OPT:fast_io=ON:Olimit=8192:reorg_common=ON:swp=ON -LNO:c -MT tilde.o -M -MF .deps/tilde.TPo

... to which it responds:

cc ERROR parsing -MT:  unknown flag
cc ERROR parsing -MF:  unknown flag

MIPSpro seems to have the options:

     -M          Runs only the preprocessor on the named files and writes
                 make(1) dependencies to standard output.

     -MDupdate filename
                 Updates filename to contain make(1) dependencies for the
                 output file.  -MDupdate updates only lines in filename
                 that end with a distinctive make comment and begin with
                 the name of the output file followed by a colon.  The
                 standard option used with make(1) is -MDupdate Makedepend.

... but no further -Mx options - so it looks as if the build-system for 'which' is going to need a redesign.

(Incidentally, does this ebuild work on Solaris, HP/UX, AIX, or any of the other more traditional Unices?  Do any of these not use GCC?)
Comment 3 Stuart Shelton 2008-02-18 13:23:47 UTC
(To make that clearer, the wrapper was hiding those two errors previously... the wrapper isn't *causing* the 'unknown flag' errors)
Comment 4 Stuart Shelton 2008-02-18 13:46:12 UTC
I've updated the MIPSpro wrapper I'm working on to remove '-MT' options and change '-MF' to '-MDupdate'.

This does allow (with the environment variables 'am_cv_CC_dependencies_compiler_type="pch" CFLAGS="${CFLAGS}
-LANG:pch=ON" CXXFLAGS="${CXXFLAGS} -LANG:pch=ON"') which-2.19 to build correctly.

Having said this, I'm not sure that simply dropping '-MT' but keeping the following arguments (the object file in this case) will work in all cases, or just happens to do the right thing in this case...

All our ports use GCC so far.  Not all use binutils as that's not always possible/working.
Comment 6 calculator 2008-04-02 12:05:37 UTC
tomorrow some problem on i686. Solved:

am_cv_CC_dependencies_compiler_type="pch"
CFLAGS="${CFLAGS} -LANG:pch=ON"
CXXFLAGS="${CXXFLAGS} -LANG:pch=ON"

but mb exist correctly some other way?

excuse me for my english.

Comment 9 Fabian Groffen gentoo-dev 2008-04-02 12:15:06 UTC
Hi calculator, please file another bug for your problem.  You seem to have another problem, but at least unrelated to Gentoo Prefix and/or MIPS/IRIX.
Comment 10 Fabian Groffen gentoo-dev 2008-05-16 20:21:23 UTC
stuart, can we close this bug, considering your wrapper works around the problem now?
Comment 11 Fabian Groffen gentoo-dev 2009-07-05 11:21:43 UTC
Not clear what the problem is.  Please file a new bug for the latest versions and stuff.
Comment 12 Stuart Shelton 2009-07-08 11:34:36 UTC
To confirm, which-2.20 builds successfully (with IRIX-MIPSpro-wrapper) and so this bug seems to be resolved.
Comment 13 Fabian Groffen gentoo-dev 2009-07-08 11:36:00 UTC
good, thanks
