Bug 62376 – Crypto++ fails to build

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Pablo Fernández 2004-08-31 05:43:16 UTC]

I can't get crypto++-5.2 to build correctly, after it does compile ok and everything looks ok it starts making some tests, but when it gets to a particular test it fails with division by zero.

--------------------------
This is the error:
BlumBlumShub validation suite running...



CryptoPP::Exception caught: Integer: division by zero
 * crypto++ self-tests failed
 * Try to remove some optimization flags and re-emerge
--------------------------


My USE variable = "java gnome kde cups alsa kde gtk X dvd dvdr cdr postgres mysql odbc opengl gstreamer acpi wifi jabber samba sl wifi jabber samba slp gphoto2 tetex scanner unicode berkdb dba gd"

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge crypto++
2. watch it fail
3.

Actual Results:  
it failed...

Expected Results:  
it should have worked...

Can we have emerge info output please.

[Comment 2 hoffmajs 2004-09-01 19:46:37 UTC]

I got the exact same error. gcc is 3.4.1, my CXXFLAGS in make.conf is "-march=pentium3 -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -fweb -pipe"
After some experiments i found that "-fomit-frame-pointer" was the problem, i.e. 'CXXFLAGS="-march=pentium3 -O2 -fweb -pipe" emerge crypto++' worked.

[Comment 3 Meder Bakirov 2004-09-06 22:16:50 UTC]

OK, I can also confirm, that "-fomit-frame-pointer" was/is the problem. I successfully built crypto++ with these CXXFLAGS:

"-march=athlon-xp -O3 -mfpmath=sse -fforce-addr -funroll-loops -funroll-all-loops -fprefetch-loop-arrays -maccumulate-outgoing-args -pipe"

FYI - 5.2.1 fixes the amd64 thinks that the patch required.

Ryan this probably should be yours.

[Comment 8 Daniel Black (RETIRED) 2004-09-22 04:38:39 UTC]

version bumped and fixed. Thankyou people :-).

[Comment 9 usu4rio 2005-08-08 05:05:50 UTC]

With ebuild crypto++-5.2-r1.ebuild, I had also to filter "-fforce-addr" and
"-momit-leaf-frame-pointer". Otherwise it wouldn't compile.
