I was able to duplicate this on a Pentium 233 (yes, I still have one), but not on my Centrino laptop. This shouldn't happen, right? The configure command from the spec file is: CXXFLAGS="$RPM_OPT_FLAGS -D_GNU_SOURCE" ./configure \ --enable-shared=yes --enable-lite-kernel --enable-static=no \ --prefix=%{_prefix} --infodir=%{_infodir} --libdir=%{_libdir} This should produce something that runs on an i386, right?Not right. By not using %configure, and manually using ./configure, you've built a binary that possibly optimizes for the build-host, though $RPM_OPT_FLAGS *should* avoid that problem. NOTE: You only set CXXFLAGS, but not CFLAGS or FFLAGS (like what %configure does).
OK, but if the application is written in C++, isn't setting CXXFLAGS enough? Whenever I build locally, it always looks like -march=i386 is set in all of the compile commands. (Granted, there are some fortran modules, but don't think the particular crash involves any of them).
Is there a reason you didn't use the %configure macro?
I think there was, but I can't remember what it is right now. -Quentin -- fedora-extras-list mailing list fedora-extras-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-extras-list
