Problems building Gambit-C - Gambit-list

10 Fév 2015


      On a Linux Mint 17.1 system, used git to download new version of Gambit.  When I run ./configure, I get the following:
steve@steve-Satellite-L555D /opt/gambit $ ./configure
checking build system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
checking host system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
checking target system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
checking for gcc... gcc
checking whether the C compiler works... no
configure: error: in `/opt/gambit':
configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details
steve@steve-Satellite-L555D /opt/gambit $
The contents of config.log are:
steve@steve-Satellite-L555D /opt/gambit $ cat config.log
This file contains any messages produced by compilers while
running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.
It was created by Gambit-C configure v4.7.4, which was
generated by GNU Autoconf 2.69.  Invocation command line was
$ ./configure
