I have been working successfully with llvm-gcc for some time now with
support for c/c++. Today I tried going back and reconfiguring and
rebuilding with support for fortran, and I am running into problems.
It seems ld cannot find -lffi. I am configuring like this:
/gro/pkg/src/llvm-gcc/configure --prefix=/pkg/bin/llvm-gcc
--program-prefix=llvm- --enable-llvm=/pkg/build/llvm
--enable-languages=c,c++,fortran
I then set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to include the path of the libs for
gcc-4.3.2, add that version of gcc to the PATH, and then run gmake
-j8.
Here is the error:
/pkg/build/llvm-gcc/./prev-gcc/xgcc -B/pkg/build/llvm-gcc/./prev-gcc/

Actually, gcc 4.3.2 is in my path already (verified by gcc -v from a
fresh shell). And the appropriate library dirs are in /etc/ld.so.conf.
But it seems that the error is thrown by xgcc within the llvm-gcc
tree, which I guess is looking for libraries based on 4.2.1? I'm not
too familiar with the llvm-gcc or its build process.
I had actually been getting a similar error (cannot find -lffi)
previously when configuring and building without fortran enabled, and
it was fixed by adding all the seemingly unnecessary LD_LIBRARY_PATH
and PATH settings (considering that gcc 4.3.2 was already in my path).
Any insight here would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Scott
