[Freeipmi-users] make compile error on x86_64 opteron

[Jan Tiri]

Hey guys,

I'm testing a Tyan s2882 with m3289 BMC module before putting it in
production. I'm quite new to Gentoo, that's why I decided to compile
freeipmi from source. A ./configure without parameters goes fine and finds
all dependencies, however I get following error from 'make';

make[3]: Entering directory `/tmp/freeipmi-0.1.3/fish/src'
if gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../..    -Wall -I./../../libfreeipmi/src

".deps/xmalloc.Tpo" \
  -c -o xmalloc.o `test -f 'xmalloc.c' || echo './'`xmalloc.c; \
then mv -f ".deps/xmalloc.Tpo" ".deps/xmalloc.Po"; \
else rm -f ".deps/xmalloc.Tpo"; exit 1; \
fi

If this is a simple compile error, please don't shoot me as I'm not a
programmer :)
