emptool fails to build from source:

This is using gcc (GCC) 3.2.3 20030316 (Debian prerelease).

I would guess that, it is normally built using an older glibc and gcc than on your state-of-the-minute system.

This is using gcc (GCC) 3.2.3 20030316 (Debian prerelease).

For the moment we recommend 2.95.3. I'll look at making it gcc3-clean at some point.

I got a bit further by building like:

make BUILD=car2 ARCH=pc CC=gcc-2.95 emptool

but then it fell over with

../../lib/pc-generic-debug2/libempeg_protocol.a(discovery.o)(.gnu.linkonce.t._ZN9CNgLogHexC2EPKcS1_iN6CNgLog8LogLevelE+0x16): In function `CNgLogHex::CNgLogHex[not-in-charge](char const*, char const*, int, CNgLog::LogLevel)':

(and more). Looks like the libc or libstdc++ version comes into it as well, and I don't know how to override that.

The pre-built tools work for me, and I'm not planning any hacking on these, so it's not an urgent issue.

Use CC=g++-2.95, or more likely "CC=gcc-2.95 CXX=g++-2.95"
