Re: Wanted: Perl 6 Programmers

I'd like to test, but the build of the shared library for imcc fails.

This is on Solaris 6, without GNU.

The error is:

ld: fatal: option -h and building a dynamic executable are incompatibl
+e
ld: fatal: Flags processing errors
make[2]: *** [blib/lib/libparrot.so] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/sybase/src/parrot-0.0.8'
make[1]: *** [all] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/sybase/src/parrot-0.0.8/languages/im
+cc'
make: *** [imcc] Error 2
[download]

I tried various things without really understanding what I was doing :-), but nothing worked.

Perhaps someone has an idea how to solve this.

I solved it: Just tried some cc flags and stumbled over -G. Changed the main Makefile from `LD_SHARED= -shared` [download] to `LD_SHARED= -G` [download] and imcc compiled after the patch danger mentioned. All perl6 tests succeeded. Now I'll try to convert some scripts from 5.6 to 6.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

I submitted this (and your sketch of a fix) as a bug. Thanks, /s	[reply]
