I've got FreeBSD 9.0 BETA3 installed on my iMac (powerpc64) but the binutils port fails to proceed. I'm not quite sure I understand the issue, it suggests that freebsd/powerpc= 64 is not a supported architecture for ld, which is supported the file referencced, my questions are 1) Is work in progress on this? 2) How trivial is it to fix this? Is it a well documented process that simp= ly needs to be applied to this platform, or is there low-level powerpc-understanding wizardry involved? I have tried searching for more info, but I think all the keywords are so general that I'm having trouble digging through all the false positives. The error in question is *** ld does not support target powerpc64-portbld-freebsd9.9 *** see ld/configure.tgt for supported targets gmake[1]: *** [configure-ld] Error 1 gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/devel/binutils/work/binutils-2.21.1' gmake: *** [all] Error 2 *** Error code 1 Thanks in advance --=20 richo || Today's excuse:=20 The co-locator cannot verify the frame-relay gateway to the ISDN server. --h31gzZEtNLTqOjlF Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: Digital signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJOnfvOAAoJEIKiWz6J5yQVHxgH/0nNMAhpnet9Bjk0SnIrvS/x TNF94NIcA0i4PEsfi2W3THqe10U5xOxuBmRmtA4vyNkg5cYrWhR3sDgL3WuCbgA9 lmnMf63SkmvXDFYZiaJ0FgfoT11TrbW16HS+jZA4xwkW75iRYtf5SS+sdcMCVpmV i7bCkJl+zjwoLp/voPL6TbBc47gvipOcXsFHEAvueseIREhEjca0dJKUWkIrhAxk ub1Gr60A3LvrsgPAdkCKZZzXWOr3wRXFnm+Y7jF1evkoOy+f2qVz3po2o+gZZNOi GBOIQURoAs3yJ+rCRHhjPxNnNiZnBJBMgdDIGDI7lcXT8ltmv0VG1egGdnijISE= =GMQ7 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --h31gzZEtNLTqOjlF--
