#46557: libgcc @4.9.2_1: build failure on Leopard PPC, ld: 32-bit absolute address out of range ----------------------+------------------- Reporter: mojca@… | Owner: mww@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: Port: libgcc | ----------------------+------------------- Comment (by zanderpower@…): I discovered that libgcc builds on the PowerBook G4 running Leopard if it is built after ensuring that you have explicitly chosen the correct ld64; the wrong ld64 (ld64 +ld64_127) is chosen by default. For PPC users (with Leopard) experiencing this problem I suggest they try this: {{{ sudo port install ld64-97 +llvm34 sudo port install ld64 +ld64_97 }}} before they attempt to build libgcc. Another llvm-XX may work just as well, but that is what works for me. I guess I ought to notify the maintainer of the ld64 ports so that in the future, the correct ld64 is chosen by default. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/46557#comment:3> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
