Using gcc 4.0.2

J.F. · Post by **J.F.** » Sat Nov 05, 2005 5:15 pm

Has the toolchain been checked that it compiles with 4.0.2? I get huge number of warnings and lots of errors trying to build the toolchain.

Here's the last bit:

I recently switched to Fedora Core 4. It comes with 4.0.1, which also fails to build the toolchain. However, FC4 also comes with 3.2.3 which DOES build the toolchain. So until gcc4 is supported, just do:

CC=gcc32 ./toolchain.sh

Debian sid, works fine
gcc version 4.0.3 20051111 (prerelease) (Debian 4.0.2-4)

Thanks for the info. I'll try it again when 4.0.3 hits the FC repos.

the version in sid is a 4.0.2 with some patches from cvs of 4.0.3, it worked also with 4.0.2, but I suppose the gcc on debian has a lot of patches to avoid breaking compilation on multiple architectures (fbts) that can make toolchain work on gcc 4.
You can try my builds http://forums.ps2dev.org/viewtopic.php? ... highlight=
they should work if the fc4 uses gcc4

I give it a try, but perhaps the trouble is 64bit related - I'm running AMD64 edition of linux on a dual opteron system. I know that some 64bit packages lag behind the same one for 32bit. Guess I'll have to try it to see.
