Hi, I'm trying to deploy Julia to users in a compute farm environment with many machines running on different CPUs. This has been discussed here:
https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!searchin/julia-users/make$20dist/julia-users/B8x6CYbFUNY/Ph5Cunhl5EwJ The recommendation was to use `make dist` which builds a tarball that doesn't include `sys.so` and you can move it to any machine. With the 0.3 release `make dist` builds `sys.so` so I removed it but the executable is still not portable. What are the most likely steps to build Julia so it works on different hardware? I did something like this (on a RHEL 5.5 system): "Make.user": FC=gfortran44 CC=gcc44 CXX=g++44 MARCH=core2 OPENBLAS_TARGET_ARCH=CORE2 (I updated binutils, python and patchelf). When I run `make dist` it crease a tarball with a `sys.so` so I deleted it. It still segfaults. It doesn't seem like `OPENBLAS_TARGET_ARCH` is working since `versioninfo()` shows it was compiled for `Nehalem`. Note, to rebuild I did: ``` cp Make.user .. git clean -xdf cp ../Make.user . make dist ``` Please let me know if there is something better I can try out and if I get something working I can update the documentation. Thanks, Glen
