[Visualpython-users] Difficulty in compilation on Ubuntu 8.10 x86_64

[Suman C. <su...@ss...>]

Dear all,

I am trying to compile visual-3.2.9 on a 64 bit Ubuntu 8.10 and getting
the following problem at the "make" step:

=============================================================================
<snip>
Updating dependancy information for ../../visual-3.2.9/src/arrow.cpp ...
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/suman/Softwares/VPython/src'
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/suman/Softwares/VPython/src'
This is a quiet Makefile. If make exits with an error, check
src/build.log to see the complete error message(s). In the event of an
error that you cannot debug, please send a message to
vis...@li..., including the files config.log
and src/build.log, requesting assistance.
Compiling ../../visual-3.2.9/src/arrow.cpp ...
make[1]: *** [arrow.lo] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/suman/Softwares/VPython/src'
make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
==============================================================================

Last two lines containing error messages in build.log:

../../visual-3.2.9/include/platlinux.h:27: error: declaration of
'typedef class visual::lock<visual::mutex> visual::mutex::lock'
../../visual-3.2.9/include/vthread.h:13: error: changes meaning of
'lock' from 'class visual::lock<visual::mutex>'
===============================================================================

Since I have no clue about how to debug this problem, I have attached
the config.log and build.log files. It will be much appreciated if
somebody can help me get through this.


Thanks and regards,
Suman Chakrabarty.
