Subject:

Installing Marpa on Windows fails: collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Installing Marpa::R2 v4.0 fails with errors. Please find attached a full log file. This is ActiveState perl 5, version 24, subversion 1 (v5.24.1) built for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread-64int. I also tried the DEV version, but it failed as well (with lots of C errors).

A naive reading of the log suggests that your Perl library has some sort of compatibility mismatch: c:/perl/site/lib/auto/mingw/bin/../lib/gcc/x86_64-w64-mingw32/4.6.3/../../../../x86_64-w64-mingw32/bin/ld.exe: skipping incompatible C:\Perl\lib\CORE/libperl524.a when searching for -lperl524 c:/perl/site/lib/auto/mingw/bin/../lib/gcc/x86_64-w64-mingw32/4.6.3/../../../../x86_64-w64-mingw32/bin/ld.exe: skipping incompatible C:\Perl\lib\CORE\libperl524.a when searching for -lperl524 c:/perl/site/lib/auto/mingw/bin/../lib/gcc/x86_64-w64-mingw32/4.6.3/../../../../x86_64-w64-mingw32/bin/ld.exe: skipping incompatible C:\Perl\lib\CORE/libperl524.a when searching for -lperl524 c:/perl/site/lib/auto/mingw/bin/../lib/gcc/x86_64-w64-mingw32/4.6.3/../../../../x86_64-w64-mingw32/bin/ld.exe: cannot find -lperl524 collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

A priori not an issue with Marpa::R2 but with activestate and/or ppm, c.f. https://community.activestate.com/node/21921#comments

If it's OK, I would like to close this issue, for the reasons given by Jean-Damien (JDDPAUSE). On Tue Sep 25 00:27:59 2018, JDDPAUSE wrote: Show quoted text

Resolved as not being a Marpa bug, based on the evidence found by Jean-Damien (JDDPAUSE). Thanks, Jean-Damiem!
