Re: [Simulavr-devel] new joel simulavrxx autoconf tarball

[Klaus Rudolph]

Hi Joel,

I did a merge to actual cvs on my system and tried to do a 
bootstrap/configure but run into trouble:
-------------
with_bfd_path = /home/zfrdh/work/binutils-2.19/build_avr
with_libiberty_path = check
nm: '/home/zfrdh/work/binutils-2.19/build_avr/lib/libbfd.a': No such file
configure: error: /home/zfrdh/work/binutils-2.19/build_avr DOES NOT 
appear to be the location of the avr-built lib/libbfd.a or include/bfd.h 
or is an incompatable version of the avr libbfd\n Please use the 
--with-bfd-path=<path to your avr-built libbfd library>
-----------
The problem seems to be, that the default build of binutils has no path 
"libs". On my build it is ".libs". A copy of libbfd is also direct in bfd.

Could you expand the tests as needed?

After I fake that in my binutils path I could compile! Fine!

But now I have no simulavr.so and swig was not running.
So no example could run :-(

Whats my problem?

----

After fixing this I will test a bit and then I will write that to cvs. 
But actually I am not able to do any test, because no executable is 
available for the tests :-)



Thanks
 Klaus
