From help-octave-request at bevo dot che dot wisc dot edu Sun Jan 12 09:21:01 2003 Subject: Known ATLAS+gcc3.2 Issue (was ATLAS with the latest cygwin) From: "Randy Gober" To: Date: Sun, 12 Jan 2003 07:00:13 -0600 You may wish to (clearing throat) "re" read the errata file. Here is the link to the full errata file, with a pointer to this issue.=20 http://math-atlas.sourceforge.net/errata.html#CWgccerr , or you could just read the text below... ========================== Cygwin's default gcc won't work, must use gcc-2 If you try to install with cygwin's default gcc, the ATLAS install will die almost immediately. The fix is to use gcc 2.95 rather than gcc 3. Run config as normal to create your Make.ARCH file. In your Make.ARCH file, change the F77 to reference g77-2, rather than g77. Then, edit the macros GOODGCC, CC, MCC, XCC, and change gcc to gcc-2. If you have previously tried to install with the bad compilers, restart from scratch as explained here. Otherwise, simply start the install as normal. ========================== Also, you should also look at the errata file for dealing with the two issue-links below. http://math-atlas.sourceforge.net/errata.html#confmem http://math-atlas.sourceforge.net/errata.html#CygErr Good, luck.. --Randy ========================== On Wed, 8 Jan 2003 abarto at efn dot uncor dot edu wrote: > I haven't been able to compile the ATLAS 3.4.1 with the latest cygwin gcc > (3.2).
