Description James Sapara 2003-06-26 12:19:23 UTC

I'm currently trying to get mysql 3.23.56 to compile through portage. I get the
following error while configure is running for the mysql package:

checking if conversion of longlong to float works... no
configure: error: Your compiler cannot convert a longlong value to a float!
If you are using gcc 2.8.# you should upgrade to egcs 1.0.3 or newer and try
again

!!! ERROR: dev-db/mysql-3.23.56 failed.
!!! Function econf, Line 304, Exitcode 1
!!! econf failed

I'm currently compiling the newest gcc 3.2.3-r1 too see if that somehow resolves
the problem...

Reproducible: Always

could you please look at the config.log to make sure thats the real problem ? 
 
you may have a missing library and the configure bailed out there because of it ...

Comment 2 James Sapara 2003-06-26 16:27:28 UTC

It appears to be glibc problem. I'm recompiling the newest masked glibc right now. In hind sight I should of recompiled the already existing one first... oh well. I'll post what I find.

Comment 3 James Sapara 2003-06-26 21:31:13 UTC

the newest glibc seems to of fixed the problem.
