I had trouble myself, but it turns out that even if you are all up to date, XCode isn't upgraded. The error I get is the result of XCode being out of date.
Confirm by looking for a config.log in the NSPR directory. If it contains a message like the one below, the outdated XCode is the problem. configure:....: gcc conftest.c >&5 ld: malformed file/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX10.14.sdk/usr/lib/libSystem.tbd:4:18: error: unknown enumerated scalar platform: zippered ^~~~~~~~ file '/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX10.14.sdk/usr/lib/libSystem.tbd' clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation) On Sun, Jun 23, 2019 at 6:27 PM John Jiang <john.sha.ji...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > I tried to build NSS 3.44 on MacOSX 10.13.6 (Darwin Kernel Version 17.7.0). > Just run "make nss_build_all" in directory nss-3.44/nss, and got the below > errors, > mkdir -p ./../nspr/Darwin17.7.0_cc_64_OPT.OBJ > cd ./../nspr/Darwin17.7.0_cc_64_OPT.OBJ ; \ > CC="cc x86_64" CXX="g++ x86_64" sh ../configure \ > --disable-debug --enable-optimize --enable-64bit \ > > --with-dist-prefix='path/to/nss-3.44/nss/../dist/Darwin17.7.0_cc_64_OPT.OBJ' > \ > > --with-dist-includedir='path/to/nss-3.44/nss/../dist/Darwin17.7.0_cc_64_OPT.OBJ/include' > checking build system type... x86_64-apple-darwin17.7.0 > checking host system type... x86_64-apple-darwin17.7.0 > checking target system type... x86_64-apple-darwin17.7.0 > checking for whoami... /usr/bin/whoami > checking for gcc... cc x86_64 > checking whether the C compiler works... no > configure: error: in `path/to/nss-3.44/nspr/Darwin17.7.0_cc_64_OPT.OBJ': > configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables > See `config.log' for more details > make: *** [../nspr/Darwin17.7.0_cc_64_OPT.OBJ/config.status] Error 77 > > but on the same machine, I didn't get any trouble when building NSS 3.43. > -- > dev-tech-crypto mailing list > dev-tech-crypto@lists.mozilla.org > https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-tech-crypto > -- dev-tech-crypto mailing list dev-tech-crypto@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-tech-crypto
