Building on is supported. The following are the recommended specifications for this platform; but is not necessarily the only configuration that is possible:

  * Intel 32-bit or 64-bit hardware

  * , gcc 4.3.2

  * gcc 3.4.0 or higher is reported to work

     As of this writing, has available to it several versions of gcc; only one of which may be found and used in the path as gcc and g++. Configure will thus find what is probably the older more stable version of gcc in a typical environment. If you desire to build with the newer gcc, it is found in the path as gcc-4 and g++-4 respectively and you must indicate to configure the desired versions. Defining the following variables beforing running configure should do the trick:

     setenv CC gcc-4
     setenv CXX gcc-4
     ../configure
