i386-mingw32-gcc @3.4.5-20060117-2 Fails to build

[rpspringuel (Fr. Samuel Springuel)]

I'm running MacPorts 2.3.3 on Yosemite 10.10.3 with Xcode Version 6.3.2 (6D2105). Attempting to install i386-mingw32-gcc results in the following error:

Warning: All compilers are either blacklisted or unavailable; defaulting to first fallback option

The log is not complete. Please ​clean and try again.

But I'm not surprised at all that software from 2006 doesn't build anymore in 2015. It might help if we updated the port.

Sorry about forgetting the clean step. I had encountered the problem while trying to install a bunch of ports and repeated the install for just this port in order to keep the bug report to just the pertinent information.

The error repeated after clean:

Log file of failed install

[peica@…]

I change the 'CXXFLAGS_FOR_TARGET' as '-pipe -Os' within its Makefile. and the building done.

The error was:

error: unrecognized command line option "-stdlib=libc++"

I would suggest you to install i686-w64-mingw32-gcc instead.

See:

#40174

MinGW-w64: add win64 cross-compiler

#53061

i386-mingw32: remove ports, replaced by i686-w64-mingw32

I don't think that spending any time fixing the ancient beast is worth any effort. I needed a cross-compiler, but this one wasn't able to compile any slightly more modern C++ code.
