[bind10-dev] Fw: building on FreeBSD 10

[Shane Kerr]

All,

I pulled this from a thread on the BIND 10 users' list.

The latest FreeBSD seems to have a patched version of g++ that breaks
our detection for old versions of g++. It doesn't actually fix enough
that our build completes though.

Any ideas how to resolve this so that FreeBSD 10 builds without pain?

Hi,

Thanks so much for the update. I checked autoreconf --help and it has
something about --warnings, I tried that and still have -Werror in
Makefile, so I went through configure and removed all references to
-Werror, then re- ./configure and it's not in the Makefile.. 

The build finished, I tried running bind10 and it actually appears to
have started.. yay.

However I have not yet taken the time to do any configuration or verify
anything. :)

I'll research the bug and see what's up, thanks. Maybe clang/LLVM is a
good alternative. I think I read some people are building FreeBSD with
clang./


Also FYI the two "problem" header files in boost are identical between
1.48 release version and 1.49/trunk so I didn't bother rebuilding boost.

Have a great weekend!
