Hello,
This is Nassim, system administrator at the Center for Advanced Mathematical
Sciences at the American University of Beirut.
I am currently installing gsl-1.7 on our IBM cluster with an AIX5.1
operating system as it is needed by the Gadget2.0 library. While compiling
gsl-1.7 I got the following error.
gcc: installation problem, cannot exec
'/usr/bin/../lib/gcc-lib/powerpc-ibm-aix5.1.0.0/2.9-aix51-020209/collect2': arg
list too long
After investigating it I found that the command line size of the shell in
AIX-5.1 is 24kb. As you know, while gsl Makefile tries to create its
executable file it fails due to the high number of object files to be linked.
One of the proposed solution listed on
http://econ.duke.edu/webfiles/arg/compecon/src/gsl/INSTALL is to
use a manual approach to incrementally combining the object files
in smaller groups.
Question:
How can I split the object files in smaller groups and compile them
incrementally?
Thank you in advance for any help.
