[GRASS-user] Grass installation problem on Solaris 9

[Harri Kiiskinen]

Hello,

I see you have selected to compile GRASS with 64bit support enabled, and
that you are using gcc as a compiler, and ld is used as the linker. Two
comments:

>From the Solaris CC manual can be found the information, that ld should
not be used to link 64bit binaries; CC should be used for that purpose
('CC -G' or 'CC -g', 'man CC' will give the necessary info). You could
try changing the relevant part in include/Make/Platform.make . I have
tried to report this as a bug a couple of times, but to no avail...
Alternatively you might try to specify the path to the GNU ld, as the
generic name ld probably indicates Solaris ld, for which the
above-mentioned restriction applies.

The above-mentioned trick might require the compilation with the Solaris
cc, which in my case always worked nicely.

Greetings,

Harri K.
