Need Help with C Compiler Error in AIX 5.3 During GnuPG Build

[Rey Abeleda]

Hi Werner,

You hit the nail on the head.

Looks like CFLAGS was indeed set by another script that is run automatically after login. After ensuring that script is not run. The compile error I was experience went away.

Thanks very much for your help.

configure does an early test to see whether your C compiler works.  This is done to detect crippled compilers delivered on some systems.  Seems not the case here, though.

... $(INCLUDE_FLAGS) looks like a make macro and definitely does not belong here.  Check whether you have set any of CFLAGS, CPPFLAGS, LDFLAGS set in your environment or whether the envvar CC specifies these flags.  It is also possible that cc is shell script or other wrapper which invokes the real CC; check for uncommon things in your PATH.


Shalom-Salam,
