debian on power pc (ppc64)


 Description   

I am trying to build mariadb server : mariadb-5.5.34 on debian powerpc system.

The build failed (step >cmake .)
on /mariadb-5.5.34/extra/jemalloc/config.guess
"error: cannot guess build type; you must specify one"

When i use the config.guess from:
/mariadb-5.5.34/storage/tokudb/ft-index/third_party/xz-4.999.9beta/build-aux/config.guess, the build works fine.

>mv /mariadb-5.5.34/extra/jemalloc/config.guess /mariadb-5.5.34/extra/jemalloc/config.guess.save
>cp /mariadb-5.5.34/storage/tokudb/ft-index/third_party/xz-4.999.9beta/build-aux/config.guess /mariadb-5.5.34/extra/jemalloc/config.guess

/mariadb-5.5.34/extra/jemalloc/config.guess is an old version: "timestamp='2012-02-10'"
regarding:
/mariadb-5.5.34/storage/tokudb/ft-index/third_party/xz-4.999.9beta/build-aux/config.guess: (more recent : timestamp='2013-06-10' stored in the file)

I would like to know if it is possible to replace /mariadb-5.5.34/extra/jemalloc/config.guess with
/mariadb-5.5.34/storage/tokudb/ft-index/third_party/xz-4.999.9beta/build-aux/config.guess file.

thx for your help.

First, please, if you have a question, you can ask it on maria-discuss@lists.launchpad.net, on irc (#maria channel on Freenode), or in our Knowledge base (mariadb.com/kb). But as long as it's not a bug, pleas, don't report it in Jira.

Yes, I think you can replace config.guess file with another config.guess file. But (try "config.guess --version") the file in jemalloc directory is newer than from xz tree, you might want to look why newer autoconf stopped recognizing your system.

Alternatively, you can install jemalloc system-wide and ignore the jemalloc from MariaDB tree completely.
