log of "MAKEOPTS=-j1  emerge openmosixview"

This is the referenced build log with the errors I get.

Sorry, i can't reproduce that error over here (gentoo-x86-1.4 without gcc3.2).

Could you please give me more information about your configuration?
Comment 3 Andy Romeril 2002-10-31 18:59:09 UTC
Dell Precision 220 (Dual P3/733, 512MB)

kernel - openmosix-sources 2.4.19-r7
gcc - 3.2-r1
qt  - 3.05-r2

make.conf:
CFLAGS="-O3 -march=pentium3 -fomit-frame-pointer -finline-functions -funroll-loops"

USE="-3dnow acl -alsa -apm -arts bonobo cups -dga doc -dvd evo fbcon gb guile
gnome -gphoto2 gtkhtml ipv6 -kde -lcms mozilla perl -qt -qtmt samba sse tcltk
tetex tiff x"

(I have also tried building with CFLAGS set to the make.globals defaults of:
CFLAGS="-O2 -mcpu=i686 -pipe" with the same results.)

Please let me know what other details you need.
Comment 4 Andy Romeril 2002-11-04 14:03:47 UTC
Received the following email from the developer of openmosixview.

Have tested the patch (following the directions below) and the code now builds
properly.  Note that I did *not* downgrade the version of 'autoconf' as the
author suggested, since this seemed to be RedHat-specific.  

If someone could update the ebuild to incorporate the patch and any necessary
mods to the build process, that would be great.
Thanks,
Andy Romeril

Hi to all openMosix/openMosixview users,

there were some error-reports about compiling openMosixview with gcc-3.x.x.
I created a patch which fixes this problems. 
If your linux-distribution is using gcc-3.x.x please download it from:

http://www.openmosixview.com/download/openmosixview-1.2.patchforgcc3.gz

Then downgrade autoconf to e.g. autoconf-2.13-17.noarch.rpm
 (there were problems reported with higher version of autoconf).
and gunzip+apply the patch with:

gunzip openmosixview-1.2.patchforgcc3.gz
patch -p0 < openmosixview-1.2.patchforgcc3

Now run: "autoconf", "./configure" and "make" in:
openmosixview/
openmosixview/openmosixanalyzer
openmosixview/openmosixcollector
openmosixview/openmosixhistory
openmosixview/openmosixprocs

.......... and it will compile + run well.
(tested here on RedHat 8.0)

The next version(s) of openMosixview of course will have 
"built-in" gcc-3.x.x support.

many greets and have fun with your openMosix-cluster,

Matt

Please test and post your results.

Modified version of ebuild script downloaded with 'emerge rsync'

The updated ebuild works with one minor change - the DEPEND section does not
need the line for 'autoconf' - the version of autoconf used in Gentoo 1.4-rc1
is
much newer than the one in RedHat.  I have attached the modified ebuild.

At this point, I feel it is safe to unmask the package -- your thoughts?
Thanks,
AndyR

I think it's save now and am going to unmask it.
Thanks for your help!
