atlas @3.10.2+gcc48 fails to build on PPC

Description

atlas @3.10.2+gcc48 fails to build on PPC. This is a regression bug. The PPC-specific patches from the previous release [3.10.1_5] have gone missing.

Only two of the three patches from version 3.10.1_5:

(1) patch-ATL_cmm4x4x128_av_c.diff <== no longer required
(2) patch-emit_mm_c.diff
(3) patch-makes-Make.lib.diff

still apply. The changes in patch(1) have already been integrated into the source code.

Patch(2) resolves the problem with the dst vector instruction:

dst vector instruction is optional for the PowerPC (not allowed without -force_cpusubtype_ALL option)

With Patch(2) applied, the build for atlas @3.10.2+gcc48 completes, but fails to create the shared version(s) of lib atlas. Patch(3) may help. I am testing this now.

Oops. Sorry for that. I'll restore them asap.

No big deal. The only people who do not make mistakes are dead... :-)

There is a bunch of post-build stuff in the current Portfile that has been commented out. Will those lines need to be re-activated to get the shared versions of the atlas libraries built?

To answer my own question... The post-build stuff in the current Portfile that has been commented out needs to be re-activated to get the shared versions of the atlas libraries built. The files in the static atlas libraries are compiled with -fPIC. The code in the post-build section uses the files in the static libraries to construct shared versions of the atlas libraries.

Thanks a lot for digging into this. I’ll do everything necessary tomorrow. I don’t want to impose on your kindness, but if you had a moment to post the deleted patches, it’d spare me the complex shebang of dredging them up out of the SVN black hole. Thanks so much again!

Thanks a lot. Committed in r122764. Hope it'll work, and apologies once again for this botch-up.

Replying to vince@…:

I think some of the comments were screwed up in r122764... Pretty sure the $Id$ line is supposed to stay a comment, for example.

Geez. Thanks. Fixed in r122765. I commented the first line and run a 'port lint' that reported no error. I hope it's a clincher this time… :|

Maybe not... Go look at the Portfile example shown in section 4.3.1 of the MacPorts Guide.

Resolution: worksforme
Status: newclosed

Since atlas no longer has a gcc48 variant, I think this ticket can be safely closed.
