mozart-oz makepkg error; can build manually just fine

beissemj · 2008-01-11 04:28:52

Grrr.... I am trying to get a PKGBUILD working for mozart-oz http://www.mozart-oz.org/ (oz is a programming language). I have successfully built the package by hand, however my PKGBUILD fails with the following error.

After doing a bit of googling I found someone with a similar problem, and this is what was said. The problem is it obviously can't find ozc.

Here is how one normally builds mozart from sources:
- fetch the sources into directory mozart
- optionally fetch the sources of mopzart-stdlib into directory mozart-stdlib
- create a sibling directory build
cd build
../mozart/configure --with-stdlib=../mozart-stdlib
make depend #this normally optional, but essential if you hack on the sources
make
make install
Now, one very important detail is that in the top directory "make"
actually invokes "make bootstrap". It is very important to remember
this distinction if you are ever tempted to invoke make manually from
a lower directory. In this case, you should always invoke "make
bootstrap" otherwise things won't work.
To answer your worry: how do
we get bootstrapped if we need the compiler in order to build the
compiler? The answer is that the sources contain a checked in version
of the Oz compiler (the boot compiler) stored using the text form of
the bytecode. We use it to compile the Oz sources, including the
sources of the compiler itself, thus obtaining a fresh build of a
production compiler (this is in fact how we can update the boot
compiler too).

I understand the solution and it makes sense, I just don't understand how to make makepkg do it...

To fix the build issue, add
options=('!makeflags')
to the PKGBUILD. This package has problems building on multi-thread or multi-core cpu. This is usually the case when you get this error message:
make[3]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

That did indeed fix the problem.
Looks like: MAKEFLAGS="-j2" in my makepkg.conf was the culprit.
