[ERROR] error: unrecognized -mtune target: generic (when building on armv7h)

[Strit]

I get the above mentioned error when I try building this on arm7h architecture. But not on aarch64.

Here's the output I get from my make command:

Not defined in the project's Makefile. From RPM_OPT_FLAGS?

[Strit]

Not sure what you are saying here.

It worked in a previous version. I could build 21.52 on armv7h.

Where would I find the RPM_OPT_FLAGS on Arch Linux?

[wfeldt]

If you search the project you won't find -mtune anywhere.

Usually such options sneak in when you build the package with rpm. There's a system-wide RPM_OPT_FLAGS defined in /usr/lib/rpm/macros.

[Strit]

I don't build with rpm, I build with makepkg on Arch. But it seems that it says generic because it can't find armv7h in the list og supported architectures, while it does find arm and aarch64.

Is it possible to add armv7h to that list?

[wfeldt]

Possibly; I don't use Arch Linux.

[Strit]

Nevermind. Found out it's happening on other packages too, so it's not hwinfo's fault. It's my system. I'll dig deeper.

Sorry for the noise. My fault. :frowning_face:
