Subject: [ruby-core:39871] [Ruby 1.9 - Bug #5384] Ruby 1.9.3-RC1 Fails to Compile on Illumos (OpenSolaris)


Issue #5384 has been updated by Naohisa Goto.


> I have tried this and I am met with the same error still. 

I cannot reproduce the error on my machines running Solaris 10, with GNU libiconv or with the native iconv on Solaris 10.  So, I think this would be specific to your machine.

If you are using native iconv on Solaris, SUNWuiu8 package is required, and SUNWciu8, SUNWhiu8, SUNWjiu8, and SUNWkiu8 packages are recommended.
(Reference: http://developer.gnome.org/glib/2.30/glib-building.html )

Since the iconv issue is different from the main topic, please report the issue as a new Bug, with following information and files.

* compiler name and version
* which iconv is installed and used
* configure options
* ./config.log
* ./ext/iconv/mkmf.log

Bug #5384: Ruby 1.9.3-RC1 Fails to Compile on Illumos (OpenSolaris)
http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/5384

ruby -v: -


An attempt was made recently to compile http://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/1.9/ruby-1.9.3-rc1.tar.bz2 and it seems every call to the compiler passes _D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 which returns the fatal error 'large files are not supported by libelf' on a fresh install of OpenIndiana with GCC 4.6.1. 

Snippet of Error:
....
compiling addr2line.c
In file included from /usr/include/link.h:31:0,
                 from addr2line.c:42:
/usr/include/libelf.h:42:2: error: #error "large files are not supported by libelf"
make: *** [addr2line.o] Error 1
....

Discussion on IRC pointed out http://src.illumos.org/source/xref/illumos-gate/usr/src/head/libelf.h#41 and a request was made to file a bug report.
