As you may know, the version of gcc on Ubuntu 12.04 is quite old. Thus,
I wanted to be able to take advantage of what is available in gcc
4.8.2. I posted the following question on Ubuntu's support forum
(http://askubuntu.com/questions/385127/how-to-verify-a-manual-build-of-gcc-4-8-2-on-ubuntu-12-04),
but while there have been a number of views, there have been no
answers. I am hoping I will have better luck here.
After getting the latest gcc-4.8.2 from one of the gcc mirrors, I issued
the following commands as a mere mortal:
|./gcc-4.8.2/configure --enable-languages=ada,c,c++,fortran
make
ulimit -s 32768
make -k check
|
I was going to run |make install|, but I saw something at the end of
|make -k check| that concerned me:
|vis:
make: *** [do-check] Error 2
make: Target `check' not remade because of errors.
|
Alas, When I scroll up, I can not find the error output that would
explain this last statement.
Here is the output from test_summary:
| === acats tests ===
=== acats Summary ===
# of expected passes 2320
# of unexpected failures 0
Native configuration is x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
=== gcc tests ===
Running target unix
=== gcc Summary ===
# of expected passes 93833
# of expected failures 261
# of unsupported tests 1371
/home/ted/gcc-build/gcc/xgcc version 4.8.2 (GCC)
=== gfortran tests ===
Running target unix
FAIL: gfortran.dg/|
Does the output above provide the information to explain what went awry
during the |make -k| check command? If so, I'd like to understand... If
you obtained the above output, would you feel confident enough in the
build of gcc to proceed with installing it and using it, even in a
production environment? Note, there are a number of sections that are a
complete mystery to me. For example, I have no idea what acats is, or
mudflap or itm or gomp.
One last question about the output from test-summary. Right after the
above output, I saw the following:
