Failure in installing documentation of gcc-4.7.2
To: gcc-bugs
1 Introduction
Trying to install documentation for recently built gcc-4.7.2.
Running Mac OS X:
System Version: Mac OS X 10.5.8 (9L30)
Kernel Version: Darwin 9.8.0
>uname -mpv
Darwin Kernel Version 9.8.0: Wed Jul 15 16:55:01 PDT 2009;
root:xnu-1228.15.4~1/RELEASE_I386 i386 i386
This bug report concerns the following point.
- The generated HTML has broken links - no pages for gnat_rm have been made
2 Report from configure etc.
Building in /Gnu/gcc/obj. Sources in /Gnu/gcc/src/gcc-4.7.2/.
The configure command was
../src/gcc-4.7.2/gcc-4.7.2/configure --enable-languages=ada,c,c++
This completed OK.
3 Missing Items in the generated HTML
The "Installing GCC: Final installation" page states:
"If you would like to generate online HTML documentation, do ‘cd objdir; make
html’ and HTML will be generated for the gcc manuals in objdir/gcc/HTML."
Ran in /Gnu/gcc/obj/:
make html &> ../logs/makehtml-1.log
Has placed many files in objdir/gcc/HTML, but the reference to gnat_rm is
missing.
The log included:
Doing html in gnattools
make[2]: Nothing to be done for `html'.
From the index page, following "2 Language Standards Supported by GCC"
leads to file objdir/gcc/HTML/gcc-4.7.2/gcc/Standards.html. Here under
"2.5 References for other languages" it says:
"See GNAT Reference Manual, for information on standard conformance and
compatibility of the Ada compiler."
This line includes a link
"<a href="../gnat_rm/index.html#Top">GNAT Reference Manual</a>"
The Safari browser says:
"No file exists at the address
'/Gnu/gcc/obj/gcc/HTML/gcc-4.7.2/gnat_rm/index.html'."
In fact there is no gnat_rm directory
bash> ls gcc/HTML/gcc-4.7.2
cpp cppinternals gcc gccinstall gccint
Similar links are missing from the same paragraph for Fortran and Java,
but perhaps this is expected since these were omitted from the build.
Since Ada was included, it would be expected to have its documentation
available:
bash> gcc -v
Using built-in specs.
COLLECT_GCC=gcc
COLLECT_LTO_WRAPPER=/usr/local/gcc-4.7.2/bin/../libexec/gcc/i386-apple-darwin9.8.0/4.7.2/lto-wrapper
Target: i386-apple-darwin9.8.0
Configured with: ../src/gcc-4.7.2/configure --enable-languages=ada,c,c++
Thread model: posix
gcc version 4.7.2 (GCC)
It has not been checked whether there are any other broken links.
4 Information about the build state
The build has passed stage 3, but failed later. Installation has been
completed, though similar errors arose.
The following bugs were reported during this build.
Bug 57291 - Failure in build stages 2 and 3 concerning pseudo-op: .balign
Bug 57292 - Failure in build after stage 3, concerning libitm.la
Bug 57606 - Failure in testing stage 3 of gcc-4.7.2
These are not believed to be connected, but is stated just in case.
