[gentoo-science] cernlib 2005 source installation

[Marco Calviani]

Hi list,
   i'm trying to build cernlib 2005 from source, having as a base the
cernlib-2003.ebuild found on bugzilla #65708 reported by Sebastien
Fabbro. However i'm having problem during the building phase:

in the 2005/build/scripts directory
# make -k install.bin

rm -f /home/mirtux/cernlib_2005_source/tar/2005/bin/paw
install -c -s  /home/mirtux/cernlib_2005_source/tar/2005/src/scripts/paw
/home/mirtux/cernlib_2005_source/tar/2005/bin/paw
strip: /home/mirtux/cernlib_2005_source/tar/2005/bin/paw: File format
not recognized
install: strip failed
gmake: *** [/home/mirtux/cernlib_2005_source/tar/2005/bin/paw] Error 1
gmake: Target `install.bin' not remade because of errors.
rm -f /home/mirtux/cernlib_2005_source/tar/2005/bin/cernlib
install -c -s  /home/mirtux/cernlib_2005_source/tar/2005/src/scripts/cernlib
/home/mirtux/cernlib_2005_source/tar/2005/bin/cernlib
strip: /home/mirtux/cernlib_2005_source/tar/2005/bin/cernlib: File
format not recognized
install: strip failed
gmake: *** [/home/mirtux/cernlib_2005_source/tar/2005/bin/cernlib] Error 1
gmake: Target `install.bin' not remade because of errors.
rm -f /home/mirtux/cernlib_2005_source/tar/2005/bin/gxint
install -c -s  /home/mirtux/cernlib_2005_source/tar/2005/src/scripts/gxint
/home/mirtux/cernlib_2005_source/tar/2005/bin/gxint
strip: /home/mirtux/cernlib_2005_source/tar/2005/bin/gxint: File
format not recognized
install: strip failed
gmake: *** [/home/mirtux/cernlib_2005_source/tar/2005/bin/gxint] Error 1
gmake: Target `install.bin' not remade because of errors.

What file format not recognized mean?

Best regards,
MC

What do you get when you run `file
/home/mirtux/cernlib_2005_source/tar/2005/bin/gxint` or the same thing
on the other "binary"? I suspect they aren't valid LSB executables.

Thanks,
Donnie

Hi Donnie,

# sh cernlib
/cern/pro/lib/libpacklib.a -lnsl -lcrypt -ldl

# sh paw
paw: line 56: /cern/pro/bin/pawX11: No such file or directory
rm: cannot remove `paw.metafile': No such file or directory

#sh gxint
GXINT [options] file(s)
  ld an interactive Geant application and run it. Your compiled
  routines are given in file(s).
  options:

  -d driver
        specify the driver for the graphics output. Possible
        values are X11, Motif, GKS, or GDDM. Not all are available
        on all systems. X11 is the default.
  -v version
        version of the program library to use. Possible values
        include pro ( default ), new and old.
  -g geant_version
        which version of geant to use. Current default is 315.
  -h host
        useful with the -d X11 option only. Specify the hostname
        used for the display. Syntax identical to that of DISPLAY.
        If no hostname is specified, the value of DISPLAY is used.
  -o outputfile
        Do not immediately run GEANT, but produce an executable
        file named outputfile.
  -L path
        additional loader search path. Usefull if additional libraries
        are specified with -l option.  This option may be repeated to
        more than one pathname.
  -l libary
        specify additional libraries. This option may be repeated to
        add several libs.
  -m    do NOT use main program from cernlib area.


Clearly i'm not understanding something.....

MC

What is this 'sh' thing? I said 'file'.

sorry... i thought i read to execute....
Here's the result:

# file paw
paw: Bourne shell script text executable

# file cernlib
cernlib: Bourne shell script text executable

# file gxint
gxint: Bourne shell script text executable

OK, that's about what I expected. The -s option to install means strip,
but you can't strip a shell script.

Hi Donnie,
   thanks for this hint.
In the scripts/Makefile i have eliminated the -s option in the
INSTPGMFLAGS variable; after that all the compile process went well.
Sorry for the question but, technically speaking, why it is not
possible to strip a bash script file?

Thanks for the help,
MC

A bash script (text) is not an object file (binary).
