How to build eql on Linux?

[Almipa]

I try to make eql on Ubuntu linux 9.10:

ecl -shell make-eql-lib.lisp

.....
;;; Compiling (DEFUN QTPL ...).
;;; Compiling (DEFUN QTPL-READ ...).
;;; Error:
;;; in file ini.lisp, position 8939
;;; at (DEFUN QTPL-READ ...)
;;; * 0 is not a legal function name.An error occurred during
initialization:
Cannot find out entry point for binary file lisp/ini.o.

Any idea?

Alex.

no problem, this is a known issue with the current ECL from CVS.
Please install ECL 10.4.1 instead (the latest release version), and
don't forget to enable unicode:

./configure --enable-unicode

Thank a lot!

$make

/usr/local/include/ecl/gmp.h:533: error: ‘std::FILE’ has not been
declared

I fixed this by adding #include <stdio.h> to some sourse and header
files.
Is there the best idea about this?

This seems to be the standard way of solving this problem.

No errors if I do this in ecl.

This happened to me too: I was using Gnome + language Italian.
Obviously decimal numbers are not interpreted correctly here.

I "resolved" this by switching my system language to English...

Thanks, Paul!!!

I was using Gnome + language Russian.
I switched my system language too. :-)
