Hello,
I have an Intel i5 MacBook Pro running MacOS 13.7.2 (Ventura), running
Darwin Kernel 22.6.0. I installed the following, using MacPorts:
sudo port install gforth
sudo port install mesa
sudo port install yodl
sudo port install gcc14
sudo port install harfbuzz
sudo port install texinfo
sudo port install xz
sudo port install mesa
sudo port install xorg-server
sudo port install automake
sudo port install libtool
sudo port install emacs
and ensured that GCC was being used as the compiler:
sudo port select --set gcc mp-gcc14
I then followed the next steps of the build procedure:
./install-swig.sh --nosudo "--prefix=${PWD}/local"
export PATH="${PWD}/local/bin:$PATH"
./autogen.sh # if not done previously
./configure CC='gcc -arch x86_64' --build=x86_64-apple-darwin13.7.2
make
After configuration there were no errors or warnings, and initially the
build proceeded as expected until:
make: Circular lib/gforth/0.7.9_20250130/amd64/libcc-named/libgfpthread.la
<- gforth dependency dropped.
make: Circular prim-fast.b <- gforth dependency dropped.
GFORTH-FAST
rm: gforth-fast-ll-reg: No such file or directory
GFORTH-FAST-ll-reg
LD -o gforth-fast-ll-reg
ld: Undefined symbols:
_gforth_engine, referenced from:
_gforth_go in main-fast-ll-reg.o
_gforth_loader in main-fast-ll-reg.o
_gforth_pointers in main-fast-ll-reg.o
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make[3]: *** [gforth-fast-ll-reg] Error 1
This happens again for GFORTH-FAST-ll and then the process aborts. gcc -v
reports:
gcc version 14.2.0 (MacPorts gcc14 14.2.0_1+stdlib_flag)
with a lot of configuration information and ld -v reports:
@(#)PROGRAM:ld PROJECT:dyld-1022.1
BUILD 05:26:33 Dec 7 2023
also with a lot of configuration information. (MacPorts and Apple's native
linker report the same information.)
Please can someone help figure out what is going wrong with the build?
Many thanks
