Re: installing 1.4.1 on SuSE Linux 6.1 (help re objc?)

[Jan Kreft]

Matt,

don't know whether that's relevant, but I don't have gnobjc installed,
only gcc, egcs, and gobjc. Also, I note you are using the old Tcl/Tk.
And I didn't change anything egcs-wise.

Here is a snippet from my notes of what I did:

SuSE 6.1 comes with:
libc glibc-2.0.7pre6
egcs egcs-1.1.2
gcc  gcc 2.7.2.3

Got from SFI:
BLT (install after tcl/tk)
gdb-binary (source didn't compile without problems, so used binary)
hdf5 (install this before R)
R
libffi (this is preferred over ffcall, less restrictive licence)
libpng (had this already, but installed additional copy under /usr/local) <- 
can't remember why
tcl
tk (install after tcl)
zlib (install this first, compiled as shared lib)

For tcl/tk:
configure --enable-gcc --disable-shared
And for blt:
configure --enable-gcc --disable-shared --with-tcl=/usr/local

Most tests of tcl/tk/blt work, however, there are same failing, but
probably not relevant (permission and windowmanager problems).

For Swarm:
configure --with-defaultdir=/usr/local --prefix=/home/jan/swarm-1.4.1 
--[en|dis]able-shared
(As all installs from source were "make install" into /usr/local)
Works both with static and shared libraries, however, there are some warnings 
in the shared lib case. Ignore.
No -fno-inline flag used since no pow() inlining bug.

HTH, Jan.
