[Nix-dev] gcc for MacOS X

[Ludovic Courtès]

Hi Konrad,

(Sorry for the delay.)

Konrad Hinsen <konrad.hinsen at fastmail.net> skribis:

I had noticed it too.  Actually, ‘stdenv’ on Darwin builds fine because
it uses ‘noSysDirs = false’ somehow, so the faulty patch didn’t get
applied.

Anyway, I just fixed ‘no-sys-dirs.patch’ so that it actually applies.

As for GFortran, I don’t know what to do.  Apple’s latest GCC 4.2
tarballs don’t include it (although previous versions did).  I tried
pulling in GCC’s GFortran (patch attached), but that doesn’t work:

  configure: error: 
  The following requested languages could not be built: fortran
  Recognised languages are: c,c++,objc,obj-c++

Any other ideas?

Thanks,
Ludo’.
