problem with building memtest86

I wrote pkgbuild:

# Maintainer: Abaddon <kukububu@go2.pl>
pkgname=memtest86
pkgver=3.2
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="Memtest86 is stand alone memory test for x86 architecture computers."
url="http://www.memtest86.com/"
depends=('')
source=(http://www.memtest86.com/$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.gz)
md5sums=('46028d276c39c2eebe7759ba813f97df')

build() {
cd $startdir/src/$pkgname-$pkgver
make || return 1
make prefix=$startdir/pkg/usr install
}

It won't compile.

Re: problem with building memtest86

Maybe someone can try this pkgbuild? I want to know if it's only mine problem.

Thx in advance.

Re: problem with building memtest86

The reloc.c  file is probably compiled with the default Arch Linux CFLAGS (-march=i686) While the rest of the source is compiled with -march=i486.  In the Makefile,  change -march=i486 by -march=i686.  (You can use  sed in your PKGBUILD)

It might be the problem since the error happens when the objects files are  linked.

Re: problem with building memtest86

I used:

sed -i 's/i486/i686/g' Makefile

but, it doesn't help:

Adding -march=i686 to compilong reloc.c also doesn't help.

I dunno what to do...

Re: problem with building memtest86

maybe compile the whole thing as i486?

Re: problem with building memtest86

Looks like this can be patched (sorry I have no time to do it now myself):
This is the spec file from PLD:
http://cvs.pld-linux.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb … c?rev=1.29
It includes 2 patches. One of them is "-i686-ld.patch" which I think is what you are looking for.
I think you should be able to download thes patches here:
http://cvs.pld-linux.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/SOURCES/
Maybe also gentoo ebuild will be helpful too:
http://gentoo-portage.com/ebuild?e=sys- … 3.2.ebuild
I hope this will help (I want this tool too :-)) so good luck.

EDIT: It's always a good idea to check what other distros do about this kind of problems. I usually use PLD, Gentoo or Sourcemage "pkgbuilds" when I'm lookin for a help.

Re: problem with building memtest86

I've tried using patches form gentoo, but they don't solve problem. I'm gonna check patches from pld when I'll come back home form school.

Re: problem with building memtest86

# Maintainer: Abaddon <kukububu@go2.pl>
pkgname=memtest86
pkgver=3.2
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="Memtest86 is stand alone memory test for x86 architecture computers."
url="http://www.memtest86.com/"
depends=('')
source=(http://www.memtest86.com/$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.gz)
md5sums=('46028d276c39c2eebe7759ba813f97df')

build() {
cd $startdir/src/$pkgname-$pkgver
sed -i 's/i486/i686/g' Makefile
perl -pi -e 's/*(.text.*)n/*(.text.*)n*(.gnu.linkonce.t.*)n/' memtest_shared.lds
make || return 1
mkdir /boot/memtest86/
cp memtest.bin /boot/memtest86/memtest.bin
}

It builds memtest.bin and copys it into /boot/memtest86/. What I have to do to inject memtest.bin into package? (From this build, makepkg makes empty package...). memtest.bin should be installed into /boot/memtest86/memtest.bin

Thx in advance.

Re: problem with building memtest86

Replace 

mkdir /boot/memtest86/
cp memtest.bin /boot/memtest86/memtest.bin 

by:

install -D -m755 memtest.bin  $startdir/pkg/boot/memtest86/memtest.bin

It will aslo give memtest.bin executable permissions.

Re: problem with building memtest86

Thx, I'll post full pkgbuild on "New and Requested Packages".
