build error on my system (Mac OS 10.4.5)

build error on my system (Mac OS 10.4.5)

[Jay Cotton]

Hello all,

Apologies if this is the wrong forum for addressing this problem. I'm  
not an experienced guile user. Last week I tried upgrading to 1.8.0,  
but ran into the following error during the make process. So I  
thought I'd send a report.

I'm using an iBook G3/800 running Mac OS 10.4.5 (the latest release).  
I'd be happy to send complete transcripts of the configure and make  
output.

gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I.. -I.. -g -O2 -Wall -Wmissing- 
prototypes -Werror -MT posix.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/posix.Tpo -c  
posix.c  -fno-common -DPIC -o .libs/posix.o
In file included from /usr/include/netinet/in.h:78,
                  from /usr/include/netdb.h:86,
                  from posix.c:122:
/usr/include/sys/socket.h:99: error: two or more data types in  
declaration specifiers
make[2]: *** [posix.lo] Error 1
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

I appreciate all the work going into guile. I hope someday I'm able  
to contribute.
Jay

What does that offending sys/socket.h:99 line say?

It's probably some extra header required before including <netdb.h>.
See if the man page for gethostbyname says how it should look.

I guess it is the socklen_t error, I reported earlier...

Best regards

Hi Jay,

line 99 of socket.h reads

typedef __darwin_socklen_t      socklen_t;

and this is the problem. The configure script tests for socklen_t in
the wrong way. It must do something like I posted some weeks ago.
A pretty common mistake...

It was decided that the fix is not that important and will come (maybe)
in a future version of guile...

Best regards
Michael

The offending sys/socket.h says, in lines 97-100:

97		#ifndef _SOCKLEN_T
98		#define _SOCKLEN_T
99		typedef	__darwin_socklen_t	socklen_t;
100		#endif

The man page for gethostbyname just says to #include <netdb.h>.

Oops, that must have gone through to the keeper.
The configure change below might do the right thing.

Thanks for the help, everybody. I made the changes to configure.in  
suggested here:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guile-devel/2006-02/msg00039.html

and re-ran autoconf. Seems to have worked, because I was able to  
continue to the next error. :-/

This time the problem seems to be with either GNU MP or libtool. I  
installed the latest versions of libtool and GNU MP, and ran make  
check on both of them, before I set out to build guile. (I'm not sure  
how to verify this, however, as a sanity check.)

Here's the error:

gcc -dynamiclib  -o .libs/libguile.17.0.0.dylib [... i cut out the  
rest of this huge build line ... ]
ld: common symbols not allowed with MH_DYLIB output format with the - 
multi_module option

make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

Jay
