I tried to install the psp tollchain from here -
http://ps2dev.org/psp/Tools/Toolchain/
I get a problem while installing on ubuntu Jaunty Jackalope 9.04. I run the toolchain-sudo.sh script (Aparently that one is the only one that works with 9.04) but it ends with this:
psp-ar rc ./libgcov.a libgcc/./_gcov.o libgcc/./_gcov_merge_add.o libgcc/./_gcov_merge_single.o libgcc/./_gcov_merge_delta.o libgcc/./_gcov_fork.o libgcc/./_gcov_execl.o libgcc/./_gcov_execlp.o libgcc/./_gcov_execle.o libgcc/./_gcov_execv.o libgcc/./_gcov_execvp.o libgcc/./_gcov_execve.o libgcc/./_gcov_interval_profiler.o libgcc/./_gcov_pow2_profiler.o libgcc/./_gcov_one_value_profiler.o
Doesn't look good. It was taking some time before that as well. It will take forever at this rate.
If anyone can help, I thank you very much.

Use the toolchain in the svn repo. The one you're trying to build is so freakin' old, your granny used to build it.

I had that problem too: whatever I use, I always get an error no matter what. If you can't use a vsn toolchain, use a precompiled one. From
http://minpspw.sourceforge.net/ you can download a ready-to-use versions of PSPSDK for Windows and Ubuntu 9.04. After installing you can try to compile /pspsdk/psp/sdk/samples/controller/basic/ , just go here with cmd and type "make".

Thanks, I'm trying the -sudo version right now and it seems to be working so far but I'll try looking if it fails.

Don't forget that MinPSPW has PLPLink, usbhostfs and pspsh already compiled and included in package :) .

To avoid the buffer overflow change the build script of binutils to use no optimizations. CFLAGS=-g

I've never been able to build it with a newer gcc, I've always had to install the compat 3.X.

As mentioned in the Ubuntu 9.04 thread, it compiles fine with gcc 4.2. Just run "CC=gcc-4.2 ./toolchain.sh".

This is entirely true, but with newer installations they don't include gcc 4.2 and don't include a way to install it, considering if you try to downgrade it goes dependency nazi on your ass and it conflicts and it just turns nasty.

In Ubuntu, just go into Synaptic Package Manager (in the Applications>System menu) and click on gcc 4.2. It will install 4.2 alongside of the latest without replacing the latest. That's why you need the CC=gcc-4.2 in front: because the default gcc is still 4.3.
In Fedora, go into YUMEX and select gcc 4.2 to install. Same as Ubuntu (practically speaking). I don't know about other distros, but it should be just as easy.

packagekit is the default one.
I mean, it comes with 4.3 default, and doesn't have additional options to install gcc 4.2, as it's under the same "package", just different versions, and when you have different versions, it doesn't show the previous versions. When it does show them, it conflicts out the ass. I've tried.
It's probably how you said under ubuntu, but that doesn't seem to be the case under fedora.
Either way, ignore what I'm saying if you're using ubuntu.

You're right - I looked around a bit and Fedora doesn't have the old versions as options. SUSE seems to. Ubuntu definitely does. So that would certainly make it a pain in Fedora 10.

Indeed, which is why my initial solution for fedora users, which is install the compat-gcc* packages seems to fix my problem every time.

Hello,
I ran into the same problem with GCC 4.4.1 and I wanted to give it a bit of troubleshooting. I do not know where the bug comes from but it disappears when binutils are compiled with -O0 instead of -O2.
So if you don't want to bother installing an old version of GCC, I suggest you try to replace:
Code: Select all
../configure --prefix="$PSPDEV" --target="psp" --enable-install-libbfd || { exit 1; }
by
Code: Select all
CFLAGS="-O0" ../configure --prefix="$PSPDEV" --target="psp" --enable-install-libbfd || { exit 1; }
in
trunk/psptoolchain/scripts/001-binutils-2.16.1.sh

Since that's only used for compiling the toolchain itself and should have no effect on generated PSP binaries, maybe that should be default. It's certainly the easiest fix. Any objections?

No -- but since there have been no objections I'm gonna give it a try.

I've applied the same fix to the PS2 toolchain scripts since they had the same problem.
