[Ubuntu 22.04.4] error: attempt to compare table with string

[DorianK29]

OS: Ubuntu 22.04.4 Steps:

git clone https://github.com/Ajatt-Tools/gd-tools
cd ./gd-tools
./quickinstall.sh

then I get this error.

I tried building older commits, but they also gave the same error, but on different header files.

@xieamoe any thoughts?

[xieamoe]

It's the same error I got trying to compile on Windows, I believe. Xmake lua error. @DorianK29 Please post the full log by running xmake -vD

It builds successfully in CI now. Does it build on your computer too?

fatal error: format: No such file or directory

That's a different issue. if <format> is not found, it is most likely an outdated gcc version. I think you need at least 13.2.

[DorianK29]

Built successfuly after I changed the gcc version.

rm /usr/bin/gcc
rm /usr/bin/g++

ln -s /usr/bin/gcc-13 /usr/bin/gcc
ln -s /usr/bin/g++-13 /usr/bin/g++
