rtorrent r1041 compile error on FreeBSD 6.2

[artifex@freemail.hu]

I had problem with r1041. It gives the following error when I compile:

gc++-2.0/include -I/usr/local/include   -I/usr/local/include -MT dht_manager.o -MD -MP -MF ".deps/dht_manager.Tpo" -c -o dht_manager.o dht_manager.cc;  then mv -f ".deps/dht_manager.Tpo" ".deps/dht_manager.Po"; else rm -f ".deps/dht_manager.Tpo"; exit 1; fi
g++: Internal error: Illegal instruction: 4 (program cc1plus)

r1040 compiled flawless though. I am using FreeBSD 6.2 with the standard gcc version 3.4.6 [FreeBSD] 20060305.

An internal error in g++ is by definition a compiler bug. Update to a more recent compiler version, 3.4.x is ancient.

Replying to anonymous:

Thanks for your answer! I will upgrade my system to version 7.x but no deadline yet.

BTW, I think if this version of the compiler is good for my 254 ports and r1040 it would be good for new versions as well.

I get a similar error when trying to build rtorrent using GCC 3.4.6 on a linkstation running Freelink/Debian; is there any hope for a bugfix for those of us who cannot upgrade to new versions of GCC?

Considering how rakshasa closed it as "worksforme", you're apparently on your own. There's no guarantee it can be fixed easily and wasting time to attempt to find a way to work around compiler bugs which have been fixed long ago already is asking a bit much.

You're better off trying to get your distro to switch to a recent compiler version.

... but I'm not on my own - there's the guy who opened the ticket in the first place, and two other people on the libtorrent-devel list are in the same boat. It may well be due to an error in the compiler, but previous versions of rtorrent worked OK, so there may be something easy to fix in the source code that will make it work again - I don't know. The trac is for reporting bugs, so that's what I'm doing; and rather than creating a new, superfluous ticket, I thought it better just to reopen the existing one. I'm sorry if I'm wasting anyone's time.

You're not alone as you said, but you're still without me. ^_

I'm have same error too,

freebsd 6.2 with GCC 3.4.6/GCC 4.2.4

[daniel-gl@gmx.net]

src/rpc/command.h needlessly uses templates for two copy constructors in rt_triple. Instead of U1, U2, U3 the original template parameters T1, T2, T3 should be used.

I confirm successful build with above patch applied.

i can also confirm successful build with patch (Same error as bug report states now fixed by patch)
