Sorry for the confusion. Let me clarify what I am trying to do here. I am trying to configure and build postgresql for MIPS platform and I am doing this on a linux system - (Linux dev-shreesharao.arubanetworks.com 2.6.32-431.11.2.el6.x86_64 GNU/Linux) so that the libraries generated from this build will be ported to MIPS platform for further use.
The way I am trying to accomplish this is by executing the configure file with some mips specific configure options and export variables. i.e., configure_args: '--target=mips-linux-gnu' '--host=mips-linux-gnu' '--without-readline' '--without-zlib' '--prefix=/home/shreesha/platform/tools/porfidio_obj' 'host_alias=mips-linux-gnu' 'target_alias=mips-linux-gnu' 'CC=/home/shreesha/platform/tools/mipscross-xlp/linux/bin/mips64-nlm-linux-gcc -B/home/shreesha/platform/tools/mipscross-xlp/linux -B/home/shreesha/platform/tools/mipscross-xlp/linux/lib ' 'LDFLAGS= -mabi=32 -march=xlp' 'CPP=/home/shreesha/platform/tools/mipscross-xlp/linux/bin/mips64-nlm-linux-cpp' -- View this message in context: http://postgresql.1045698.n5.nabble.com/Getting-make-Entering-an-unknown-directory-error-while-building-postgresql-on-MIPS-platform-tp5806705p5806720.html Sent from the PostgreSQL - hackers mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
