Error in building the SDK

[Takouh]

Hi all!

I am trying to install the Epiphany SDK on Ubuntu and I am using the latest version of SDK, probabely 4.7 . After resolving some issues, I have encountered an error that I cannot deal with. when I run the ./build-toolchain.sh, I get the following error:

eelf32epiphany_4x4.c: In function ‘gldelf32epiphany_4x4_place_orphan’:
eelf32epiphany_4x4.c:1397:15: error: ‘SPECIAL’ undeclared (first use in this function)
eelf32epiphany_4x4.c:1397:15: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in
make[3]: *** [eelf32epiphany_4x4.o] Error 1

Has anyone encountered this issue or does any one know how to solve it?

Thanks..

Hi Takouh,

No I can't say I have seen this issue, but I will look and see if I can find anything to solve it. Before I do though, in case its relevant/makes the issue clear, when you say "after resolving some issues", what issues did you have previously?

Thanks

Hey Simon,

Thank you for your reply.
The issues were mostly about necessary libraries that were missing like GMP, MPFR, MPC and so on. So I believe my current problem is not related to the previous library installations. I would appreciate any suggestion.

Thank you!

I had problems similar when doing this in Cygwin. It seemed to be related to the version of automake I was using. I think something generates C code from the configuration data and it goes wrong with some versions.

Also could well be worth doing the build from scratch deleting intermediate files it has done already.

Hello,

Thank you for your responses.
I found the soloution to my problem. As a matter of fact, this error occured because I had neglected to install some needed packages like bison, flex and so on. A complete list of needed packages could be found at: https://github.com/parallella/epiphany- ... g-on-Linux . So before building the SDK, these packages should be installed on the machine.

Thank you!
