  • 1.  Openpgp on AIX 7.3 with IBM Open XL C/C++ for AIX 17.1.0 compiler

    Posted Mon October 16, 2023 01:47 PM

    Hi, good day!

    I have a customer who runs AIX 7.3 with IBM Open XL C/C++ for AIX 17.1.0 compiler installed. 

    They need to to install Openpgp GnuPG 2.4.X, but encounter the following errors when installed, it seems to look for a suitable compiler, but the compiler available is IBM Open XL C/C++ for AIX 17.1.0 which doesn't use "cc" anymore:

    Hi Shawn,

    Yes, we don't have 'cc' invocation now. Could you try specifying compiler path through 'CC' environment variable? For example, 'CC=/opt/IBM/openxlC/17.1.1/bin/ibm-clang ./configure'.

    Hi Choafan, for the reply. I'm able to get past the "cc" check, thanks for your advice. But it requires "GNU make" and also some gnu libraries...

    Hi Shawn,

    Yes, the gnupg depends on many third party libraries, like libgcrypt, libksba and libassuan. You may find them at AIX open source toolbox (https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/aix-toolbox-open-source-software-downloads-alpha) and I think gnupg is also in the list.

    GNU make has some extensions, which make it different from AIX make. gnupg depends on GNU make's behavior to build. If you have installed GNU make, please check GNU make has takes precedence over /usr/bin/make in PATH.
