Hi,

I've a problem while attempting to install octave-forge.

after yaourt octave-forge

I get this :

==> Starting build()...
ans = /tmp/yaourt-tmp-erondael/aur-octave-forge/pkg/usr/share/octave/packages
ans = audio-1.1.4.tar.gz
configure: error: in `/tmp/oct-4l5sxB/audio-1.1.4/src':
configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details.
the configure script returned the following error: checking for gcc... gcc
checking for C compiler default output file name...
error: called from `pkg>configure_make' in file /usr/share/octave/3.2.4/m/pkg/pkg.m near line 1240, column 2
error: called from:

error: /tmp/yaourt-tmp-erondael/aur-octave-forge/src/pkgbuild_install_pkgs.m at line 7, column 3

Aborting...

What is in config.log?

My guess is that you have changed your CFLAGS in makepkg.conf to something that is wrong. That is the usual cause of this error.

I don't know where this file is.

It will be in /tmp/oct-4l5sxB/audio-1.1.4/src, just like the message says.

No such file or directory...

Otherwise, here is my makepkg.conf

Up, please. No more idea in order to help me? knowing that I didn't found the config.log file.

Snowman · 2010-10-07 17:31:42

Probably yaourt remove the build directory. Use makepkg directly instead of yaourt. That will give you the config.log

Acutally, I solved my problem on the french forum.
Thanks for the help.
