The previous port, version ruby-1.8.2_1, compiles and runs on sparc64 without any problem. The present port, (ruby-1.8.2_2), will coredump while building unless the following one-line change is made. By "present port", I mean the port that users will get when they cvsup the ports collection right now. >> .include >>-.if ${OSVERSION} >= 502102 >>+.if ${OSVERSION} >= 502102 && ${ARCH} != "sparc64" >> RUBY_ENABLE_PTHREAD?= public demand >> .endif >This should be no difference with with my patch, because my >patch doesn't enable pthread stuff. I removed the pthread >stuff because it causes few more troubles. I do not completely understand what your patch is attempting to do. I just played with it until I had something which compiled and seems to work on both sparc64 and powerPC. >>The patch that I end up with is at: >> >>http://people.freebsd.org/~gad/ports/ruby18+mezz+gad_3.diff >> >>My patch is about the same as your last patch, minus the >>patch-ruby-1.6.8-fix-x86_64 file, plus my changes to the Makefile. > >This is very weird..

I seem to remember that the sparc64 port is missing some parts of support for threaded applications. >[...] My ruby28.diff is such smaller now. At this point, I really have no more time for testing this. Hopefully your latest patch works as well as you expect it to. -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@gilead.netel.rpi.edu Senior Systems Programmer or gad@freebsd.org Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute or drosih@rpi.edu
