Status: Closed Resolution: Wont Fix Priority: 5 Submitted By: Frank Küster (frank) Assigned to: Martin Schröder (oneiros) Summary: Build failure on alpha-linux with certain gcc versions
Initial Comment: pdftex fails to build on Linux-alpha with newer gcc versions. This is a known bug in gcc, but it's very obscure and it seems unlikely to be solved soon. Therefore you might consider to apply the patch below as a workaround. Falk Hueffner wrote in the Debian BTS (http://bugs.debian.org/419434): [...] gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../../../../texk/web2c/pdftexdir -I.. -I../../../../texk/web2c/pdftexdir/../.. -I.. -I../../../../texk/web2c/pdftexdir/.. -I../.. -I../../../../texk/web2c/pdftexdir/../.. -I../../../libs/md5 -I../../../../texk/web2c/pdftexdir/../../../libs/md5 -I../../../libs/xpdf -I../../../libs/xpdf/.. -I../../../../texk/web2c/pdftexdir/../../../libs/xpdf -I../../../../texk/web2c/pdftexdir/../../../libs/xpdf/.. -I../../../libs/obsdcompat -I../../../libs/obsdcompat/.. -I../../../../texk/web2c/pdftexdir/../../../libs/obsdcompat -I../../../../texk/web2c/pdftexdir/../../../libs/obsdcompat/.. -DpdfTeX -g -O2 -c ../../../../texk/web2c/pdftexdir/writezip.c -o writezip.o ../../../../texk/web2c/pdftexdir/writezip.c: In function 'writezip': ../../../../texk/web2c/pdftexdir/writezip.c:75: error: unrecognizable insn: (insn 139 138 140 9 ../../../../texk/web2c/pdftexdir/writezip.c:54 (set (reg:DI 141) (plus:DI (reg/f:DI 138) (const_int 32768 [0x8000]))) -1 (nil) (nil)) ../../../../texk/web2c/pdftexdir/writezip.c:75: internal compiler error: in extract_insn, at recog.c:2084 Please submit a full bug report, with preprocessed source if appropriate.

Since I don't know how fix it in gcc and nobody else seems to be working on that, I suggest you apply the following workaround: ----------------------------------------------------------------------
