[Swarm-Support] Installing Swarm on Ubuntu 8.10 x64

[Camacho-Trujillo David]

Dear all,


I am trying to compile swarm2.2.4 under linux Ubuntu 8.10 x64.
I have realized that the gcc version has changed and I am aware of the new 
issues that could arise. However, I am following the instructions from Jackson 
Aquino to compile swarm:
http://jalvesaq.googlepages.com/swarm.html
Until the point 4. everything runs fine, but then in point 5:

After:
 ./configure --with-pic --enable-onelib --with-gnu-ld --disable-jar \
      --without-jdkdir --with-tcl=/usr/lib/tcl8.5/ --with-tk=/usr/lib/tk8.5/
(I used the 8.5 tcl and tk versions I have)

I got only this warnings (among other normal info)
"...
*************** Warning ****************
libobjc backend information for x86_64 is
missing for libobjc.
Using information from unknown.
****************************************
*************** Warning ****************
The mframe software has not been ported to x86_64-linux-gnu.
Using information from ${top_srcdir}/config/unknown/compiler-info-generic.h
****************************************
*************** Warning ****************

Using information from ${top_srcdir}/config/unknown/mframe-generic.h
****************************************
..."
However, at the end there are  no ERROR messages.

But then after "make" I got:
