Anyone else using Intel's compiler, icc? I do for quite a while now. Followed http://www.gentoo-wiki.info/HOWTO_ICC_and_Portage
I still prefer gcc over icc so I use http://www.gentoo-wiki.info/HOWTO_ICC_and_Portage#.2Fetc.2Fportage.2Fbashrc to only use icc for stuff I list in /etc/portage/package.icc - Lately I get compilation-errors for packages that aren't listed in that file, for example dev-python/numpy-1.6.1 It fails with log-lines telling me that icc was used to (try to) compile it: [..] icc: command line warning #10156: ignoring option '-fp'; no argument required icc: error #10236: File not found: 'l1-cache-line-size=64' icc: command line warning #10156: ignoring option '-fp'; no argument required icc: error #10236: File not found: 'l2-cache-size=4096' error: Command "icc -pthread -shared -Wl,-O1 -Wl,--as-needed -shared -O2 -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -march=core2 -mcx16 -msahf --param l1-cache-size=32 --param l1-cache-line-size=64 --param l2-cache-size=4096 -mtune=core2 -fno-strict-aliasing build-2.7/temp.linux-x86_64-2.7/build-2.7/src.linux-x86_64-2.7/numpy/core/src/_sortmodule.o -L/usr/lib64 -Lbuild-2.7/temp.linux-x86_64-2.7 -lnpymath -lm -lpython2.7 -o build-2.7/lib.linux-x86_64-2.7/numpy/core/_sort.so" failed with exit status 1 # grep numpy /etc/portage/* # The shell is bash: # echo $SHELL /bin/bash hmm Yeah, I know, I could simply get rid of icc again. But maybe someone in here has an idea why this fails. Maybe it somehow needs some small fix somewhere. Stefan
