[Broken again] The new gcc downgrade thread

Neo_The_User · 2009-05-14 20:10:11

OK Now that I know the rules are not to open bump an old thread from 6 months ago, umm... How do I downgrade gcc in testing to the one in core? I keep trying to compile a kernel but I get an error on usb stuff.

Tank you very much (Yes. Tank. As in a military issue tank.

edit: kernels won't compile, mesa won't compile, vlc, mplayer, totem the list just goes on.

Install Gcc 4.3 alongside instead. See http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=72045

Edit: I compiled 2.6.30-rcsomething and the latest mplayer from the svn just fine 2 days ago.

pacman -S core/gcc

edit: OOPS, seems like gcc 4.4.0 already hit core too, so my line won't work for you ;-)
Then

pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/gcc-*.pkg.tar.gz

will do it

Army, the first one was actually what I was looking for. Thank you so so much!

Hi,

Instead of downgrade, try to fix the error if you can, or post the error to LKML or to USB subsystem ML (first search for the error was actually solved in git repos). This will help much more, than downgrade and skip the problem.

In last instance downgrade as instructed here.

Your decide what pill take

Hehehehe...

sudo pacman -Rd gcc-libs gcc
sudo pacman -Ud /var/cache/pacman/pkg/gcc-libs-4.4.0-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz && sudo pacman -Ud /var/cache/pacman/pkg/gcc-4.4.0-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz

Now it works.

edit: I know.. thats bad what I did and dangerous and breaks stuff.

edit: no it doesn't:

actually, kernel compiles just fine with gcc 4.4.0-1, in other words, fix your compilation routine.

Neo_The_User · 2009-05-15 13:12:48

I'm talking about 4.4.0-2 in testing

edit: just try it. Just try 4.4.0-2 in testing for a day and try to compile a kernel, mesa, anything. I can't even compile vlc!

I always test compiling the kernel before pushing the toolchain to [testing]. So compiling the default Arch kernel works with the default CFLAGS. You aren't using -O3 by any chance? That is full of breakage...

Neo_The_User · 2009-05-15 13:16:02

Oh hey Allan! Can you put gcc 4.3 in the repos again? One more thing, i'm talking about 2.6.29.3 from kernel.org and linus's git tree. And no i don't edit the Makefile. I use -O3 for mesa though because I actually need it.

Allan · 2009-05-15 13:19:11

gcc-4.3 is not going to the repos again... but given your list of packages that won't compile, something else is going on.

gmp-4.3.1 is going to the repos now. That may fix some issues. Try downgrading it in the meantime.

Neo_The_User · 2009-05-15 13:20:21

Downgrading won't work. Its stuck in my hard drive.

edit: "A free library for arbitrary precision arithmetic" That's exactly what I need since gcc 4.4.0-2 is kinda stupid (literally stupid. Has a low IQ and other stuff.)

I have no understanding of what you said there...

Try to compile something:

And yet again... kernel compilation breaks on USB core.

edit: the 2nd code box was mesa. not a kernel. but kernels still don't compile for me because of USB, HID, Core, something like that.

Downgrade gmp.

OK Now... kernel this time. Not mesa. Give me some time to compile it. I will post an error if any here.

OK THAT WORKED! ALLAN THANK YOU SO MUCH! ALLANFIXEDIT!

I have just pushed gmp-4.3.1 to [testing]. That should fix this without having to downgrade.

Edit: seems this error is very hardware specific.

Neo_The_User · 2009-05-15 14:06:56

Thanks Allan!

edit: broken again

"drivers/usb/core/hcd.c:144: error: expected expression before '>>' token"

I get 4 errors of those when compiling a kernel

OK I switched to debian so I guess you can just close this thread now

bwalk · 2009-05-16 18:32:49

Maybe someone can upload the tarball gcc-4.3.3-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz and corresponding gcc-libs along with some md5sums for those packages?

kumyco · 2009-05-16 20:17:14

all the files are @ http://arm.nrk.cc/ -- http://arm.nrk.cc/arms/gcc-4.3.3-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz
http://arm.nrk.cc/arms/[PKG] should get you any pkg you want

And thanks from me to for the helpful post. I was able to solve the gcc problem and downgrade very easily due to it. Now I can and did build mplayer which I needed the latest svn version for as the player in another program.

Takes a long time to compile gcc, nice to avoid the task.

That looks like a code error rather than a compiler error...

Just downgrading is going to screw people over. C++ code built with gcc-4.4 will not run with gcc-libs-4.3.x. This really needs to go to a bug report.

Nepherte · 2009-05-17 12:20:44

I'm also having a problem with gcc 4.4.0 and mplayer. Everything compiles and builds just fine but when I try to play a file that has dts audio (i.e libdca is being used), I get a message saying mplayer crashed.

When building mplayer with gcc 4.3.3, everything works just fine.
