problem building gdbserver for gdb-5.0

[Claude Devarenne]

Hi,

I am having problems building gdbserver for gdb-5.0. I am on a Solaris 2.7 sparc machine: SunOS server03 5.7 Generic_106541-12 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-80.

Here is the output of my build attempt (I did run the fixincludes script from gcc):

/home/cdevaren/gdb5/gdb-5.0/gdb/gdbserver>./configure

I looked at the make file and I am puzzled by it:

...

SFILES = $(srcdir)/low-hppabsd.c $(srcdir)/low-linux.c $(srcdir)/low-lynx.c \
         $(srcdir)/low-nbsd.c $(srcdir)/low-sim.c $(srcdir)/low-sparc.c \
         $(srcdir)/low-sun3.c $(srcdir)/utils.c $(srcdir)/server.c \
         $(srcdir)/remote-utils.c

DEPFILES = $(GDBSERVER_DEPFILES)

SOURCES = $(SFILES) $(ALLDEPFILES)
TAGFILES = $(SOURCES) ${HFILES} ${ALLPARAM} ${POSSLIBS}

OBS = utils.o $(GDBSERVER_DEPFILES) server.o remote-utils.o

...

GDBSERVER_DEPFILES is used but never defined and none of the SFILES ever get compiled which is where all the symbols the linker complains about can be found.

I tried to compile low-sparc.c but the include files in /usr/ucbinclude seem to cause errors:

/home/cdevaren/gdb5/gdb-5.0/gdb/gdbserver>gcc -c -g -I. -I.. -I. -I./.. -I./../config -I./../../include -I../../bfd -I/usr/ucbinclude -DGDBSERVER low-sparc.c

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
