Hi

I can confirm the report of Jae Cha. It happens on the 32 bit and the 64 bit version of openSUSE 11.

Have fun.

Well I am happy to say that I too am getting this error. Of course I was just happy to find out that I was initially using an older version of PSPP and once I got the new version, I was able to configure, and  produce the same results when trying to make. I've looked back over some of my emails, and I am curious if anyone found a solution while I was playing catch-up ?

 

Thanks-

Brad

Is there an OpenSUSE 11 machine available for testing somewhere
on the net?  I cannot reproduce this problem with OpenSUSE 10 at
td166.testdrive.hp.com (see
http://www.testdrive.hp.com/current.shtml).

Hi

I did some testing:
> /usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.3/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ld:

>          skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libc.a when searching for -lc

is just a warning I guess. It is because /usr/lib64 should be used if it is available and the usr/lib file is skipped. Which is correct.
 
The problem is before with errors like:
src/libpspp/libpspp.a(src_libpspp_libpspp_a-hash.o): In function  'GSL_MIN_LDBL':
/usr/include/gsl/gsl_math.h:171: multiple definition of 'GSL_MIN_LDBL'
src/language/liblanguage.a(loop.0):/usr/include/gslgsl_math.h:171 first defined here
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[2]: *** [src/ui/terminal/pspp] Error 1
etc.

The messages, without the previous reported skipping messages, are the same on the 32 bit and the 64 bit version of openSUSE 11.

I am not aware of an openSUSE 11 testing machine. But I can tell that the problem wasn't there with openSUSE 10.3 32 bit version.

Hope this helps

A workaround for that problem is given in the PSPP README:

        * If you use GCC 4.3 or later to compile PSPP, along with any
          version of the GNU Scientific Library (GSL) released as of
          this writing (June 2008), then you will need to specify the
          -fgnu89-inline flag to the compiler on the "configure"
          command line: "./configure CFLAGS=-fgnu89-inline".

I am working on a patch to detect the buggy GSL versions and
automatically apply the CFLAGS for it, but it is not in 0.6.0 (or
in the Git repository).

Hi Ben

Using  command line: "./configure CFLAGS=-fgnu89-inline" works on openSUSE 11 32 bit and 64 bit.

Don't know how to tell users to read README. Noboddy, including myself, read them. Despite I write readme's myself. :-)) Maybe something for the FAQ ? An item "known problems" on the site?
 
Have fun.
