Bug 29416 – g++ Internal error while compiling qt-3.2.1-r1

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Anders Hasselqvist 2003-09-23 05:13:25 UTC]

When I try to upgrade qt to qt-3.2.1-r1 I get a g++ Internal error while compiling:

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge -u qt




I'm using the 2.6.0-test5 kernel.

I changed my CFLAGS to "-march=athlon-xp -O2" and the compilation succeded.
I've had the old CFLAGS (-march=athlon-xp -O3 -pipe" for about 5 months without problems.

[Comment 2 Joshua Kinard 2003-10-02 01:57:08 UTC]

I'm going to re-assign this to the KDE people to close.  As per Comment #1,
qt apparently doesn't like the -O3 optimization flag, so I recommend the
addition of a replace-flags command in src_compile() in the ebuild to replace
-O3 with -O2 so the compile can complete.

[Comment 3 Anders Hasselqvist 2003-10-02 03:20:08 UTC]

Well, this solves the problem with qt. What it doesn't solve is the fact
that it say: "g++: Internal error: Terminated (program cc1plus)".  If g++
doesn't like qt it should emit an error, that's ok, but should it really
end with an internal error.

To me, at least, this is an indication of something wrong?

[Comment 4 Olav Kolbu 2003-10-03 05:22:39 UTC]

Note that this may be a resource starvation problem. I had the exact same
error when installing qt-3.2.1-r2, and that was due to lack of memory. I
had a rogue xterm that had eaten up all my swapspace, and when I tried to
emerge qt it died at some random file because g++ self-terminated due to
what appeared to be lack of memory. So morale is, make sure you have enough
memory if you come across this problem.

closing as fixed.  Will look into flag replacement.
