Currently, I build my GCC (together with an MPI library) and then bootstrap pkgsrc to use that dedicated build environment. I pass --compiler=gcc or --compiler=icc and have CC and friends indicate the compiler I want (also ICCBASE). I then put stuff like that into mk.conf: PKGSRC_COMPILER=gcc CC=gcc CXX=g++ FC=gfortran GCCBASE=/sw/compiler/gcc-6.4.0 USE_NATIVE_GCC=yes TOOLS_PLATFORM.cpp=/sw/compiler/gcc-6.4.0/bin/cpp TOOLS_PLATFORM.ld=/sw/compiler/gcc-6.4.0/bin/ld TOOLS_PLATFORM.readelf=/sw/compiler/gcc-6.4.0/bin/readelf TOOLS_PLATFORM.strip=/sw/compiler/gcc-6.4.0/bin/strip CFLAGS+= -I/sw/env/gcc-6.4.0/openmpi/2.1.0/include -I/sw/compiler/gcc-6.4.0/include FFLAGS=-O3 -march=native FCFLAGS=${FFLAGS} # RPATH hackery LDFLAGS+= -L/sw/env/gcc-6.4.0/openmpi/2.1.0/lib/openmpi -L/sw/env/gcc-6.4.0/openmpi/2.1.0/lib -L/sw/compiler/gcc-6.4.0/lib64 -L/sw/compiler/gcc-6.4.0/lib LDFLAGS+= -Wl,-R/sw/env/gcc-6.4.0/openmpi/2.1.0/lib/openmpi -Wl,-R/sw/env/gcc-6.4.0/openmpi/2.1.0/lib -Wl,-R/sw/compiler/gcc-6.4.0/lib64 -Wl,-R/sw/compiler/gcc-6.4.0/lib BUILDLINK_PASSTHRU_DIRS+= /sw/env/gcc-6.4.0/openmpi/2.1.0/lib/openmpi /sw/env/gcc-6.4.0/openmpi/2.1.0/lib /sw/compiler/gcc-6.4.0/lib64 /sw/compiler/gcc-6.4.0/lib /sw/env/gcc-6.4.0/openmpi/2.1.0/include /sw/compiler/gcc-6.4.0/include BUILDLINK_PASSTHRU_RPATHDIRS+= /sw/env/gcc-6.4.0/openmpi/2.1.0/lib/openmpi /sw/env/gcc-6.4.0/openmpi/2.1.0/lib /sw/compiler/gcc-6.4.0/lib64 /sw/compiler/gcc-6.4.0/lib You see I had some trouble getting my builds of OpenMPI (together with my patch to use native MPI) and GCC really in there with proper RPATH. Regardless of how ugly this is — it works sufficiently right now — will any of this be affected by the outcome of the compiler discussion here? I guess pkgsrc will try to build a newer GCC if my prescribed one is too old? Or not even that?
