CBQN fails to build on Cygwin with Clang

actalley opened this issue · 4 comments

The Cygwin Clang package is stuck on version 8 with no maintainer. Some change in the last couple of weeks appears to prevent CBQN from building on Clang 8. @dzaima pointed out builds succeed with Clang 8 on linux. On Cygwin the build is failing with make outputting Error 127 for .o files on makefile line 257.

I’m going to use CC=”gcc” as a workaround on Cygwin builds while I decide what to do about this.

I don't know what is causing this problem. The larger issue is if it is worth investigating further at all, given the goal is to eliminate Cygwin dependencies.

This explains no compiler errors but Error 127 for .o files in Cygwin. I haven't decided if I want to chase this any further.

clang is a symlink pointed at clang-8. strace on clang-8 gives this:

Dropping Cygwin builds. MSYS2 builds only until that breaks as well, or I'm able to release native builds.
