[FFmpeg-user] running configure on SPARC

[Eric Thomas]

Hello,

I'm not sure this email went through the first time. My apologies if this
is a repeat...


I cannot figure out what I am missing, to get the configure script to
generate the config.h file, which would then be used to build ffmpeg.



Here is some system info:



env


PATH=/usr/xpg6/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/usr/sfw/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin


LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/eric/ffmpeg/FFmpeg-4.0.2/lib:/usr/lib:/usr/local/lib



uname –a

     SunOS devm 5.10 Generic_150400-61 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-V490



make –v

     GNU Make 3.81



gcc –v

     Reading specs from /usr/sfw/lib/gcc/sparc-sun-solaris2.10/3.4.3/specs

     Configured with:
/sfw10/builds/build/sfw10-patch/usr/src/cmd/gcc/gcc-3.4.3/configure
–prefix=/usr/sfw –with-as=/usr/ccs/bin/as

                                           –without-gnu-as
–with-ld=/usr/ccs/bin/ld –without-gnu-ld –enable-language=c,c++
--enable-shared

     Thread model: posix

     gcc version 3.4.3 (csl-sol210-3_4-branch+sol_rpath)





Configure cmd

     bash ./configure –prefix=/home/eric/ffmpeg/FFmpeg-4.0.2
–extra-cflags=”fPIC” –arch=sparc –target-os=sun





The configure script does not run to completion – I have to kill it with
‘Ctrl-z’, and I do not get a config.h file.



I am not the administrator of this server, so I can only request upgrades.
I am planning to request a gcc upgrade to 8.2 (latest).



Can you help me identify what options I am missing to get ffmpeg to
configure, and then compile?



Thanks,

Eric
