Building PARI/GP on Debian sparc |
Dear all, I tried to build PARI 2.5.3 on a ultrasparc computer running Debian (64 bit kernel, trying to build everything 32 bits, not sure it would have any influence on the following) and had to find workarounds for the following problems: * got a bunch of "Error: Hardware capability "mul32" not enabled for "umul"." and similar errors, apprently you have to give more clues to the assembler, for instance setting CFLAGS="-mcpu=v9" solves this, * option "-mimpure-text" is passed if the arch is sparc* but that's only supported by a GCC targetting Solaris, so I modified the right file in the config dir. I did not check with the 2.6 branch but assumed that nothing changed for such unusual systems. Excuse me if this was taken care of already and thanks again for the great software. Best, -- Jean-Pierre Flori
