[MSYS2 on Windows, building w/ gcc amiga13.1] configure libdebug...failed, fatal error: cannot find 'ld'

[jbilander]

Hi Stefan, thanks for all your great work with this toolchain. I tried building amiga-gcc with your gcc 13 (amiga13.1) branch and all goes well on a linux-vm but I get a problem on Windows (using MSYS2) when libdebug is being built. This is an old Win8.1 Pro machine so I don't have WSL unfortunately.

Here is how I built from scratch:

git clone https://github.com/bebbo/amiga-gcc
cd amiga-gcc
make update
make clean
make branch branch=amiga13.1 mod=gcc
make all NDK=3.2 -j4

Here is the error I get when running the last (make all NDK=3.2 -j4) command.

The full copy-paste of my commands and their output here: https://pastebin.com/P04dXFYC

config.log:

And here is the full log from config.log: https://pastebin.com/DEwY8vTp

It seems that it cannot find 'ld', very strange since everything is in there...

Do you by any chance know how to fix this?

My MSYS2 installation is updated to latest with $ pacman -Suy

Thankful for any input you might have. Regards, J

I tried compiling a hello world and get the same error:

m68k-amigaos-gcc -Wall -c -o hello.o hello.c
m68k-amigaos-gcc -Wall -nostdlib -o hello hello.o
collect2: fatal error: cannot find 'ld'
compilation terminated.
make: *** [Makefile:11: hello] Error 1

verbose output here: https://pastebin.com/1CRtefJy

and the exact same on the linux-vm works: https://pastebin.com/X6Hy6mgm

a quick follow up, I tried building amiga-gcc 6.5.0b and that works so something is up with gcc 13 when building in MSYS2.

It builds locally these days. It's usually an MSYS2 issue. rinse and repeat^^
