Now, I have a new problem. Make complains that it can't find a
certain file in the carat directory:
(cd src; make GNU_MP_LIB=. GNU_MP_INC=.)
gcc -O3 -DLONGLONG -I../../carat/carat/include -L../../carat/carat/
lib -DVERSION='"2.0 January 2003"' nq.o consistency.o pc.o
relations.o word.o system.o time.o addgen.o tails.o eliminate.o
engel.o glimt.o instances.o presentation.o mem.o pcarith.o
collect.o combicol.o trmetab.o gap.o -L. -o nq -lgmp -static
/usr/bin/ld: can't locate file for: -lcrt0.o
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [nq] Error 1
make: *** [compile] Error 2
The file isn't in /usr/local/lib/gap4r4/pkg/carat/carat-2.0/lib.
I've reproduced this on my system. I really don't think this is a
'gmp' issue,
well, the problem evidently lies in the way carat builds gpm
library. Hence
it IS a gmp issue :)
I don't see why we really should discuss buidling gmp in this forum,
especially as there are well-known ways to avoid messing around
with this on
the particular platform we talk about, e.g. to use fink.
Otherwise you are of course right that the tool chain gets confused
here.
But it's gmp's toolchain...
and I would not (yet) start fooling around with fink or
MacPorts.
without one of them, developing "generic" unix soft, such as gap,
on a Mac
becomes a major pain, that's why it's not "fooling around", but
rather a
very reasonable thing to do.
I wasn't trying to provoke a discussion on the issue of fink/macports
(and I'm not disagreeing that fink and macports are good ways to deal
with Unix software on Mac OS X). I wanted to isolate what was going
wrong for Jeffrey.
For someone not familiar with software development, tackling the job
of installing either of these schemes can be daunting. Throwing that
into the mix at the start didn't seem like the right approach.
It may be that it works out to be a GMP issue, but for now, my
concern is getting to the bottom of a specific failure.
In my case, the problem seems to be related to differences between 64-
bit and 32-bit toolchains (and the fact that I had a 64-bit GMP and a
32-bit nq). I'm not sure yet what is wrong in Jeffrey's case.
