[Sdcc-user] Installing or building sdcc-3.0.0 on Linux

From: Douglas Goodall <douglas_goodall@ma...> - 2011-05-24 07:34

Friends,

After installing the Linux binaries, the /bin and the /share, copied recursively into /usr/local (as root),
when I try to run sdcc, I get a message...

[doug@... include]$ sdcc
sdcc: /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.7' not found (required by sdcc)
[doug@... include]$ 

AfterI Downloaded glibc-2.7.tar.gz from ftp.gnu.org and tried to build it but something isn't
happening right because it didn't help.

Why doesn't the Linux binary distribution of sdcc possess it's own libraries?

Thanks,

Douglas

These are the libraries used by sdcc :

roelofh@...:~$ ldd /usr/local/bin/sdcc
	linux-gate.so.1 =>  (0x00fd6000)
	libm.so.6 => /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libm.so.6 (0x00d68000)
	libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6 (0x0023d000)
	/lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x009ed000)

It is better to use a command like "apt-get install libc6"
as root.

What is the error message ?

And as always, I/we can not help you or anybody else when there
is no information like :

roelofh@...:~$ uname -a
Linux baywatch 2.6.32-31-generic #61-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 8 18:24:35 UTC
2011 i686 GNU/Linux

or :

roelofh@...:~$ cat /proc/version
Linux version 2.6.32-31-generic (buildd@...) (gcc version 4.4.3
(Ubuntu 4.4.3-4ubuntu5) ) #61-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 8 18:24:35 UTC 2011

Why should it ?
You can install the libraries needed with a simple apt-get
command. To my knowledge libc is one of the basic lib's needed
to run anything at all. You can check for it :

roelofh@...:~$ dpkg -l |grep libc
<snip and formated>
ii  libc6
ii  libc6-dev
