Error building haiku on Fedora 13 (64bits)

Description

I keep on getting the following error while building Haiku: autogen Error: Invalid input char '*' in inclhack.def

I've used the tip from this link ​http://old.nabble.com/inclhacks-vs.-latest-autogen--td15119870.html. To solve the issue this requires to update a couple of line in buildtools/legacy/gcc/gcc/fixinc/inclhack.def (Basically quoting with " whenever required).

Change History (2)

Assuming that you aren't building gcc 2 in a 64 bit environment -- that isn't supported anyway -- there are a few simple work-arounds that should allow building:

  • Build gcc with an older autogen version.
  • Deinstall autogen completely.
  • Touch the to-be-generated file before building gcc.

A tested patch is welcome. Otherwise I probably won't pursue this myself.
