[Nix-dev] Re: compile error while bootstrapping

[Peter Simons]

Hi,

while trying to bootstrap on Linux/x86, I get "make check" failures in
libgmp that cause the build to fail. The system identifies itself as
follows:

  $ uname -a
  Linux 2.6.29-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT i686 mobile AMD Duron(tm) AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux

And these are the errors:

It seems to me like the binaries have been built with an -march-setting
that is incompatible with AMD Duron.

Does anyone else have those problems?

Take care,
