Building geexbox for x86_64 targets

[Praderi Leandro]

HI, I am having troubles building x86_64 geexbox using Fedora Core host.

Changed several SPINS (fedora light live version) without luck,
i386 iso and packages compiled ok with FC 20 i 686 host OS.

#uname -a
Linux localhost.localdomain 3.11.10-301.fc20.i686 #1 SMP Thu Dec 5 14:21:31 UTC 2013 i686 i686 i38

Hardware: CPU AMD E 300 APU with 4GB ram ddr3 and 200GB disk and 4GB swap file.
On same system x64 packages built OK but gives error building iso at GRUB:

" checking whether option -mcmodel=large works... no
configure: error: -mcmodel=large not supported. Upgrade your gcc.
make: *** [binaries] Error 1 "

Tested also with FC 21 x86_64 OS

#uname -a
Linux localhost.localdomain 3.17.4-301.fc21.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Nov 27 19:09:10 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

This time error was building ppl-1.0

" Makefile:1338: recipe for target 'Linear_Expression_Impl.lo' failed
make[4]: *** [Linear_Expression_Impl.lo] Error 1
mv -f .deps/Grid_Generator_System.Tpo .deps/Grid_Generator_System.Plo

Any suggestion on Light OS to use exclusively to build GeeXboX iso and packages for both
PC architectures (i386 & x86_64)?

Tested another version: FC 20 x86_64 xfce spin:

Did you use our buildbot script ?
anyway, how did you start this ?
from a clean tree ?
ie no build directory in openbricks directory ?

For your build issue on fedora, Idon't know
we need the exact erro if possible.
I know our toolchain works on opensuse, gentoo and ubuntu

For fedora, maybe I can test in a vm in coming days

Cheers !

Hi Thomas,
>1) Did you use our buildbot script ?
- no (will try it out after good manual build) username of my system is buildbot ....
sorry for the confusion.
>2) anyway, how did you start this ?

> from a clean tree ?

Yes , git clone , load config for target , build single package and if all ok then make (full iso).
Tested several ways to clean tree
rm entire openbrick folder and then do git clone again ...
rm only openbricks/build folder
or is only a single package build fails:
just rm -rf .stamps/$package_name rm -rf sources/$package_name

All goes ok with FC 20 i686 host OS and target $ARCH: i386,
but still can´t build target $ARCH: x86_64

Today I went back to FC 20 i686 OS and have the same issues building single package ppl-1.1 (x86_64)
"... /lib/libgmp.la: No such file or directory "

So right now I am doing git checkout 5ce476eb8a67985c2e772dcaeb5be4a1048f4615 (the one that worked ok for i386 iso),
and testing ppl package build again.

Will come back with results.-

Package Python (x86_64) was built ok under Fedora Core 20 i686
with git checkout 5ce476eb8a67985c2e772dcaeb5be4a1048f4615
and option --enable-unicode=ucs4.

if only git clone used , then previous error building ppl
"... /lib/libgmp.la: No such file or directory " stops compilation.

Now I will check several newer commits to find in wich one the problem starts.
Also will try to build only grub package (original error) to get more info
and post logs on pastebin.

wonder if you have a CONFIG_SITE set somewhere ...
can you edit config/toolchain like this :

diff --git a/config/toolchain b/config/toolchain
index 8d0312d..e6bba34 100644
--- a/config/toolchain
+++ b/config/toolchain
@@ -380,9 +380,9 @@ set_ccache () {
# Disable SITE_CONFIG for OpenSuse #
####################################

-if [ -f /etc/SuSE-release ] ; then
+#if [ -f /etc/SuSE-release ] ; then
export CONFIG_SITE=""
-fi
+#fi

just for a quick test

Ok, did patch file ...
from same commit I tried earlier 5ce476eb... # will try from master branch later.
make distclean
make cleanconfig
./scripts/loadcfg geexbox-xbmc-x86_64-generic # config loaded ok without errors
./scripts/package grub .... building right now # this was the one who return -mcmodel=large error

If no error present will do full build and came back to you (expect at least 20 hours from now).

Again same failure about gcc check -mcmodel=large building package grub:

http://pastebin.com/1n5FGUYk

will keep checking older commits till I can find one who build x64 iso,
or diferent linux distro like ubuntu or suse.
