Hi all,
I'm trying to compile the flac-1.1.1 tarball on a Linux PPC system (a G3
iBook
running Debian Testing).
Configure is fine, but make bombs out almost immediately with:
lpc_asm.s: Assembler messages:
lpc_asm.s:1: Error: junk at end of line, first unrecognized character is
`l'
lpc_asm.s:2: Error: junk at end of line, first unrecognized character is
`C'
lpc_asm.s:4: Error: junk at end of line, first unrecognized character is
`R'
lpc_asm.s:5: Error: junk at end of line, first unrecognized character is
`m'
lpc_asm.s:6: Error: junk at end of line, first unrecognized character is
`a'
lpc_asm.s:8: Error: junk at end of line, first unrecognized character is
`-'
lpc_asm.s:9: Error: junk at end of line, first unrecognized character is
`n'
<snip>
It seems that as is barfing at the comments. However, even stripping all
comments
from the code results in compilation errors like:
lpc_asm.s: Assembler messages:
lpc_asm.s:70: Error: syntax error; found `(' but expected `,'
lpc_asm.s:70: Error: junk at end of line: `(0xfffffc00)'

lpc_asm.s:71: Error: junk at end of line: `(0xfffffc00)'

lpc_asm.s:93: Error: Unrecognized opcode: `lvsl'
lpc_asm.s:94: Error: Unrecognized opcode: `vspltisb'
lpc_asm.s:95: Error: Unrecognized opcode: `vspltisb'
lpc_asm.s:96: Error: Unrecognized opcode: `vmrglw'
<snip>
At least some of those error look like Altivec instructions which of course
are not present on my G3 iBook.
For now, I'm compling with --disable-asm-optimizations.

Traditional capital was stuck in a company's bank account or investments.
It could not walk away in disgust. Human capital has free will. It can
walk out the door; traditional capital cannot.

yes, --disable-asm-optimizations got broken in the last release. I'm planning to put together another release soon with this and some other fixes. there was a thread about how to fix it, which you may be able to find in the archives.

I don't know why they're different. I'm still trying to figure out how to support both. altivec is enabled by default, it is not autodetected by configure, so you have to use --disable-altivec. since that disables all asm on PPC in flac-1.1.1 (since it all uses altivec) you might try that as a workaround to the problem with --disable-asm-optimizations.
