#7021: Build GCC Hybrid failed due to missing Objective-C compiler ------------------------------------+----------------------------- Reporter: eu | Owner: bonefish Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: R1 Component: Build System | Version: R1/Development Keywords: Objective-C compiler | Blocked By: Has a Patch: 0 | Platform: x86 Blocking: | ------------------------------------+----------------------------- 1. Installed nightly build 39924 x86gcc2hybrid on a Lenovo T61p laptop. 2. svn checkout http://svn.haiku-os.org/haiku/buildtools/trunk haiku/buildtools 3. svn checkout http://svn.haiku-os.org/haiku/haiku/trunk haiku/haiku 4. mkdir haiku/haiku/generated.x86gcc2 && cd haiku/haiku/generated.x86gcc2/ 5. ../configure --build-cross-tools ../../buildtools The build fails after a while when building binutils/gprof because of "Objective-C compiler not installed on this system". cc -c -o flat_bl.o /boot/home/haiku/haiku/buildtools/legacy/binutils/gprof/flat_bl.m gcc: /boot/home/haiku/buildtools/legacy/binutils/gprof/flat_bl.m: Objective-C compiler not installed on this system make[4]: *** [flat_bl.o] Error 1 The build fails regardless of "setgcc x86 gcc2" or "setgcc x86 gcc4". I was trying then to build gcc2 from buildtools/legacy with Objective-C support, but the configure script does not have an option for that. Quote from http://www.haiku-os.org/guides/building: "Building Haiku from sources is a surprisingly simple process which allows developers to get started quickly developing on Haiku and allowing end users to experiment with the latest Haiku sources."
