Issues when compiling SheepShaver/Basilisk on Linux 64 bit

Post by Cat_7 »

We are having some issues with the Basilisk/SheepShaver code in Linux (at least in latest Fedora 64bit and OpenSUSE 64bit). In recent Ubuntu 32bit Basilisk still builds, but SheepShaver doesn't.

Basilisk:
Due to recent updates in autoconf, configure.ac doesn't work anymore on some installations. There is a issue with checking for header files. It is described here:
http://www.gnu.org/savannah-checkouts/g ... piled.html

SheepShaver:
Configure.ac for SheepShaver still seems to work on those system, but during make for SheepShaver we get:
./dyngen -o ppc-dyngen-ops.hpp obj/ppc-dyngen-ops.o
dyngen: ret or jmp expected at the end of op_jump_next_A0

Similar issues are described in this thread: http://www.mail-archive.com/qemu-devel@ ... 12016.html

We would be very pleased if someone could look into those matters and come up with a solution to be included in the source code!

Thanks,
