64 bit gcc devel package missing

zootboy · #1 27th July 2009, 03:08 AM

I have been attempting to compile lmms on my 64 bit install of fedora 11, and have determined that I need the gcc-devel package. I cannot find it in any of the repositories. Where is it?

***Hlingler*** · #2 27th July 2009, 03:12 AM

There is no "gcc-devel" package - however, there is gcc.x86_64 and all associated GCC compiler packages (e.g.: gcc-c++, gcc-gfortran, libgcc, & etc.), all in both 32-bit and 64-bit flavors.

P.S. If you're going to be compiling stuff, mught as well grab all the usual tools:
yum groupinstall "Development Tools" "Development Libraries"

should install the x86_64 suites of those groups.

I ran the group install yum command, but cmake is still saying that gcc-multilib and g++-multilib are missing. Here's what cmake gives me:

Code:

* VST-instrument hoster       : not found, please install (lib)wine-dev (or similiar) - 64 bit systems additionally need gcc-multilib and g++-multilib
* VST-effect hoster           : not found, please install (lib)wine-dev (or similiar) - 64 bit systems additionally need gcc-multilib and g++-multilib

And here's what's installed:

Code:

Try:
yum install wine-devel

Then try again with lmms (or whatever it is). See if that satisfies it.

P.S. In this case: you may also need to manually install the x86 (32-bit) Development stuff. Ick!

leigh123linux · #5 27th July 2009, 08:14 PM

Try

Code:

su
yum install lmms

zootboy · #6 27th July 2009, 08:21 PM

@Hlingler:
As you can see in my post, wine-devel is already installed. I also tried installing gcc 32 bit, but it really screwed things up.

@leigh123linux:
If that had worked, would I really be doing all this? I tried it, but it failed miserably.

I posted about this problem in a different thread, but got no response.

***Hlingler*** · #7 27th July 2009, 08:43 PM

Oops! I missed that.

What do you mean: "really screwed things up" ?

You should just be able to install the 32-bit compilers:
yum install gcc.i586 gcc-c++.i586 gcc-gfortran.i586 cpp.i586 ccache.i586 automake.i586 autoconf.i586 cmake.i586

Then try again.

We couldn't possibly know that until you stated it. Anything else we should know ?

Gödel · #8 27th July 2009, 08:53 PM

and what failed when you did yum install lmms?

zootboy · #9 30th July 2009, 12:27 AM

Hlingler, none of those packages are available in the 64 bit yum repositories.

Code:

[root@cyborg sean]# yum install gcc.i586 gcc-c++.i586 gcc-gfortran.i586 cpp.i586 ccache.i586 automake.i586 autoconf.i586 cmake.i586
Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit
Setting up Install Process
No package gcc.i586 available.
No package gcc-c++.i586 available.
No package gcc-gfortran.i586 available.

No package automake.i586 available.
No package autoconf.i586 available.
No package cmake.i586 available.
Nothing to do

When I installed the 32 bit gcc manually (via rpm file), yum stopped working.

Also, when I 'yummed' lmms, lots of visual elements did not render correctly and no sounds played.

Hm. Apparently, gcc.i586 & friends are in fact not included in the 64-bit repos. So I guess there's some good reason not to include gcc in the "multi-lib" club. I'm surprised though that manual installation would have crippled YUM - I can't see why off-hand. Guess I'll have to file this away under "learned something new again today".... Otherwise, I'm out of ideas.

Well, it didn't cripple yum by itself. I think it removed the 64 bit version when the 32 bit version rpm was installed. So yum didn't like that.
