how do you invoke cmake?

Comment by Michael Felt [ 2013-08-31 ]

in both cases, in the 'current' directory, and as root,

  1. cmake .

Sorry, we don't have AIX in our build farm and we don't support MariaDB on AIX.
But if you provide a patch that fixes this, I'll be happy to apply it.

Hint: look at the CMakeFiles/CMakeTmp/ directory, there you'll find the sources of this test program and a makefile. You can try to compile it manually and see what fails.

bah tablets.
your comment does not show atm.

in short, i would like to rely on mariadb because oracle has dropped support on AIX. I shall look into setting up a system as a build farm, if that helps. Just not this week. Vacation this week.

I am still here, but been side-tracked by work.

Comment by Michael Felt [ 2013-10-25 ]

since cmake is "completing" with version 5.5.33 and 5.5.33a - whatever was not working for me is working now, so this can be closed.

Either it never was an error - and I have stopped making a mistake, or it is fixed.

note: I am using the following command sequence:

gzip -dc mariadb-5.5.33a.tar.gz | tar xf -
mv mariadb-5.5.33a mariadb-5.5.33.1
cd mariadb-5.5.33.1
cmake . -DWITH_JEMALLOC=no
make
