atlas 3.9.33 build fails on PowerPC

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

atlas 3.9.33_0 fails to build; see attached log. This is on Mac OS X 10.4.11 PPC. The previous version of atlas, 3.8.3_4, is currently installed.

There are three things at stake here. Tiger, gcc, PPC. I have successfully built Atlas 3.9.33 on the old MacPro (G5 - ppc64) at work with gcc45. In this case, that's a PPC-32bit architecture, right? Could you first retry with gcc45 instead of gcc44? I know it takes hours to compile on ppc, but who knows?

If build_arch in macports.conf is ppc then that's 32-bit. If it's ppc64 then that's 64-bit. My PPC is a G4 which is 32-bit.

Am currently testing on Leopard on that machine. Will retry with other gcc versions later; all the gccs I can build are already built.

I'll reattach my ppc tiger gcc44 log with a name that better identifies that.

Ok. I don't think this is related to the OS in anyway, but, once again, it's an hypothesis without any ground. I'd rather blame gcc. I'll be off most of the day, with little access to Internet, but please post your results.

[Veence (Vincent)]

Hold! A new version is out (3.9.35), I'll update the Portfile later today.

[ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt)]

Now attached is a ppc leopard gcc45 log. I'll test more with 3.9.35, thanks.

[Veence (Vincent)]

I see this in the log. How come?

I get the same problem trying to build this on a PowerBook G4.

It's a bit of a show-stopper; everything seems to depend on atlas :-(

I think I am experiencing this issue as well with atlas 3.9.33 on 10.4.11 PPC.

Here is my build.log:

or

These bugs appear to be similar:
#27897
#28189
#28413

Hopefully vince@... uploading 3.9.35 will fix this:

Done in r76347. Please try again and keep me posted.

Of course I meant atlas @3.9.37_0 since there is no revision 1 yet.
