Sounds like your compiler is broken.

gotta love that RedHat Package Manager (RPMs)

I saw that same error trying to compile Unreal on FreeBSD once... think it had something to do with the environmental variables I had set.

I tried to compile on coLinux + Debian 3.0-something. I did 'apt-get install gcc' and when I ran ./Config, the same error appeared.

Anyone got an idea?

Yup, config.log.

would be easier just to fix the compiler...

fdisk...

hell, it'd give him a chance to rm -rf /

(note: Don't do that unless you know what it does.)

Let's see how many people do it anyway, as a case study.

Actually, on that system, I fixed with this command sequence:

Remember, this is coLinux / Debian 3.0

Code: Select all

# must do this as root!
apt-get install gcc-3.0 #(or something like that)
rm gcc
ln gcc gcc-3.0
su <ircd user> # and login
cd ~/Unreal
make clean
./Config
make

Unreal compiled beautifully and successfully runs! (Can you believe this? The *nix version running on Windows?

/

) Though, libcurl was disabled, but that's another story... probably just some package I missed...

To jewles: Yes, that's what I was talking about too, but actually to fix the compiler it would be helpful to know what the problem is with it. The log file may tell the answer.

First of all, I cannot understand of word of that. Second, did you intend to push "New Topic"

?

http://ircdefender.sourceforge.net

Try that, it seems to do the trick.

Scans for open proxies, unauthorised cgiircs, etc etc.

well, if the compiler is at fault, why is it that unreal support that needs to assist in helping to solve it?

Yeah I think enough has been covered here.. and it's even going to an entirely different subject because of cumlealem's post ;).
