Debian build fail #718

Open matthewblott opened 2 years ago

matthewblott commented 2 years ago

I initially tried on macOS but having no joy thought I'd give it a go on Linux. I'm using a bare bones Debian image (latest version) with the requirements installed. I cannot do a simple build. I followed the steps as per the home page.

Step 1:

make V=1

Which results with:

make -C src
make[1]: Entering directory '/home/deployer/vimb/src'
cc autocmd.o
cc -DEXTENSIONDIR=\"/usr/local/lib/vimb\" -DPROJECT=\"vimb\" -DPROJECT_UCFIRST=\"Vimb\" -DGSEAL_ENABLE -DGTK_DISABLE_SINGLE_INCLUDES -DGDK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500 -D__BSD_VISIBLE -std=c99 -pipe -Wall -fPIC -pthread -I/usr/include/webkitgtk-4.0 -I/usr/include/gtk-3.0 -I/usr/include/at-spi2-atk/2.0 -I/usr/include/at-spi-2.0 -I/usr/include/dbus-1.0 -I/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dbus-1.0/include -I/usr/include/gtk-3.0 -I/usr/include/gio-unix-2.0 -I/usr/include/cairo -I/usr/include/pango-1.0 -I/usr/include/fribidi -I/usr/include/harfbuzz -I/usr/include/atk-1.0 -I/usr/include/cairo -I/usr/include/pixman-1 -I/usr/include/uuid -I/usr/include/freetype2 -I/usr/include/libpng16 -I/usr/include/gdk-pixbuf-2.0 -I/usr/include/libsoup-2.4 -I/usr/include/libxml2 -I/usr/include/libmount -I/usr/include/blkid -I/usr/include/webkitgtk-4.0 -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/glib-2.0/include -c -o autocmd.o autocmd.c
make[1]: cc: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [Makefile:43: autocmd.o] Error 127
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/deployer/vimb/src'
make: *** [Makefile:57: src.subdir-all] Error 2

Step 2:

make install

Which results with:

make[1]: Entering directory '/home/deployer/vimb/src'
cc autocmd.o
make[1]: cc: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [Makefile:43: autocmd.o] Error 127
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/deployer/vimb/src'
make: *** [Makefile:57: src.subdir-all] Error 2

I also tried the following:

make PREFIX="/usr"
make PREFIX="/usr" DESTDIR="/home/deployer" install

But I didn't have any joy with this either.

Any help appreciated :-)

You used google to find a solution to this error, right?

make[1]: cc: No such file or directory

compiler is missing, you need to install first build-essential

I did use google first, I always try and solve a before creating an issue (I just didn't understand the message). Thanks :-)

@matthewblott The message means you have no compiler installed. Or you have one but /usr/bin/cc is not a symlink to the compiler. Mybe there exsist something like update-alternatives for debian too to create the symlink from /usr/bin/cc to the installed compiler like gcc.
