2013-02-19 Thread David Collins
Hi, I'm trying to build libtorrent/rtorrent using gcc 4.8. The reason I'm using gcc 4.8 rather than the version in base is because there is apparently a bug in gcc 4.2 - http://libtorrent.rakshasa.no/ticket/926 I installed gcc 4.8 based on these instructions

I'm wondering whether your use of sudo is mucking things up and it's a permissions problem. i.e: it's running make OK but freaking out when it tries to invoke the compiler in the config stuff. I always build my ports using portupgrade as root. Maybe you could try logging in as root then
