List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Fri, 24 Jun 2016 18:49:49 -0000 For a while I've been having trouble building ARM packages via = Poudriere. My setup running under a 10-STABLE host quit working = altogether, so I switched to an 11-CURRENT host. That works to build = both 11.x and 10.x FreeBSD/arm packages, however, in the case of the = 10.x packages I am having a couple of persistent failures: = lang/perl5.20; security/libgpg-error; and mail/postfix. All three are = flagged in the Poudriere build page as having "linker_error". The = linker error is always a complaint related to using "VFP register = arguments". E.g., the mail/postfix port complains thus: /nxb-bin/usr/bin/make -f Makefile.in MAKELEVEL=3D Makefiles (echo "# Do not edit -- this file documents how Postfix was built for = your machine."; /bin/sh makedefs) >makedefs.tmp /nxb-bin/usr/bin/ld: ERROR: /tmp/makedefs-9bae49.o uses VFP register = arguments, makedefs.test does not /nxb-bin/usr/bin/ld: failed to merge target specific data of file = /tmp/makedefs-9bae49.o cc: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see = invocation) *** Error code 1 As I understand it, VFP relates to the "Vector Floating Point" = instructions of the ARM processor, so I presume this error is somehow = related to the switchover to hard float. Is anyone else experiencing a problem like this trying to build 10.x = FreeBSD/arm packages? If so, is there a fix? I have rebuilt the = Poudriere jail recently already. Cheers, Paul.=
