Configure error

[eno]

So Im finally building extensions for piCore 6 :-) but running into this error when running configure:

Code: [Select]

checking how to run the C++ preprocessor... /lib/cpp
configure: error: C++ preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check
See `config.log' for more details.
I installed compile-essentials but is there anything I need to build extensions?

Hi eno
Did you check   config.log  to see what it's complaining about?

[eno]

So it couldn't find an include file (linux/limits.h) which I solved by installing linux-3.16.y_api_headers.
But now the build fails:

Code: [Select]

$ sudo make install
if g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.     -g -O2 -MT btcontent.o -MD -MP -MF ".deps/btcontent.Tpo" -c -o btcontent.o btcontent.cpp; \
then mv -f ".deps/btcontent.Tpo" ".deps/btcontent.Po"; else rm -f ".deps/btcontent.Tpo"; exit 1; fi
btcontent.cpp: In function 'void Sha1(char*, size_t, unsigned char*)':

   SHA1_Final(dm,&context);
                         ^

I have sent a message to the developers for help.

Never mind: I figured out that simply configuring --with-ssl bypasses the SHA1 code that was producing the error.
Another build completed - another shiny new extension for piCore 6! :-)
