Is there any way to get the libstdc++.a static library along with the shared one? I can't find a way to get it

Hi AUR user!

You tried to install this package and get some errors? me too :)

To summarize what it said below, you need to install arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc-stage1, then arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc-stage2 and finally arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc [1].

You also need the edit the PKGBUILD of the thee package to add theses lines at the begin of the build functions [2]:

    CFLAGS="${CFLAGS/ -Werror=format-security/}" 
    CXXFLAGS="${CXXFLAGS/ -Werror=format-security/}"

E.G.:

$ paru -S --fm nvim arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc-stage1
$ paru -S --fm nvim arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc-stage2
$ paru -S --fm nvim arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc

isl.gforge.inria.fr seems to be gone for good, so can't download isl-0.24.tar.xz needed for this recipe. It's now available via [1]. More details: [2].

if building failed, try to add these two lines to PKGBUILD.

CFLAGS="${CFLAGS/ -Werror=format-security/}" CXXFLAGS="${CXXFLAGS/ -Werror=format-security/}"

Getting unknown key when trying to install stage1.

UPDATE: manually importing the key worked fine

Every single time an update comes out for this package, I need to install stage-1 -> stage-2 -> this. Is it possible to update directly without having to reinstall stage-1 and stage-2 every single time?

Edit: the problem is arm-linux-gnueabihf-glibc, which requires a newer gcc, but the newer gcc requires the newer glibc. Only way to break the cycle is to install the new stage-2, which requires the new stage-1.

Got the following error with paru:

configure: error: 
*** These critical programs are missing or too old: GNU ld
*** Check the INSTALL file for required versions.

Is there a straight forward way to also provide the libstdc++.a static library together with the shared?

I can only see the *.so files of libstdc++ and I would need the static one for some cross compilation issues.

@smallAndSimple: it worked perfectly the way you described it

Edit: this is about the missing libctf problem.

I digged around a bit, and the actual problem lies in arm-linux-gnueabihf-binutils. I did the following as a workaround:

1. Cleaned up all arm-linux-gnueabihf-* related stuff completely.

2. Download arm-linux-gnueabihf-binutils PKGBUILD and add --disable-libctf\ to the list of ./configure parameters

3. makepkg -sri to install arm-linux-gnueabihf-binutils

4. Install arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc-stage1

5. Install arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc-stage2

6. Install this

A less thorough approach might be possible. Also, libctf apparantly can do something useful with debug sections, so you might run into trouble down the line.

So, since the libctf.so.0 situation will probably not be solved very soon (https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/69567 is closed because of upstream), is there a way around it? Can you compile this without libctf?
