Build fails with no obvious errors #154

Closed drmiller-cni closed 1 year ago

drmiller-cni commented 1 year ago

Building on RHEL 9.2, GCC 11.3.1 20221121, bison-3.7.4-5.el9.x86_64. Tried both "master" branch and "8.0.3" tag. gdb being used is gdb-10.2.

Complete output of 'make': crash-make.txt

The build ends/fails with:

make[3]: Nothing to be done for 'all-target'.

crash build failed

There are some warnings during compile of gdb, but those do not appear to be fatal. The "crash build failed" message seems to indicate that the end was reached but no 'crash' binary was created. It's not clear why the "Nothing to be done for 'all-target'" appears and whether that is pertinent.

I can build the latest crash on RHEL9.2 with these packages. Please try:

# yum install git gcc gcc-c++ make wget tar patch bison texinfo ncurses-devel zlib-devel lzo-devel snappy-devel libzstd-devel
$ cd crash
$ rm -rf gdb-10.2
$ make clean
$ make

Please note that some packages are provided through the CRB repository.

It appears that lzo-devel and snappy-devel were missing from my system. But, I get the same results:

...
touch stamp-system-gdbinit
make[3]: Nothing to be done for 'all-target'.

crash build failed

Attaching complete make output: crash-make2.txt

maybe patch command fails on your system? This might be a clue.

This is a make log of 8.0.3 on my system:

Mea culpa, I am having problems on my NFS mount and did not see the messages in my output log. Thanks for pointing this out to me. Closing issue.
