Hi, I am executing the process to build the tool chain for leopard, the latest Xcode and firmware 1.1.4. Everything builds fine until the make LLVM_VERSION_INFO=2.0-svn-iphone-dev-0.3-svn

Here I ALWAYS see this:

[snip]
*, unsigned int> >(int, std::pair<llvm::Type const*, unsigned int>*)in libLLVMBitWriter.a(ValueEnumerator.o)
ld: symbol(s) not found
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [cc1-dummy] Error 1
make: *** [all-gcc] Error 2

I just can't figure out how to build this cleanly. As far as I see I have follow all available help/wikis/forums etc. but can't fix his problem.

Thanks in advance for nay help.

There seem to be two leading causes on this board for people failing to build the tool chain. The first is not following the instructions precisely. The second is having a bad Xcode installation. If you are certain of the first, try uninstalling, then re-installing Xcode and see if that fixes things. If not, Check and make sure you didn't miss an export or another command, and make sure you checked out the proper revision of LLVM as noted in the book.

There are also binary installations of the tool chain for Leopard at http://www.zdziarski.com/iphone/

I assure you I have followed the instructions to the letter. Many times. For the Xcode, I have downloaded and installed the Beta 2 and Beta 3. Removed the Beta 3 via unstall scripts as part of the Xcode install, then reinstalled again.

What leads to a bad Xcode install?

I am on a Macbook, have a pwned 1.1.4 phone, Leopard and gmp and mpfr installed via Darwin ports.

I guess I need to know about pre-requisites to the install, the users $PATH, version of firmware, OS and whether or not pwning makes a difference.

I will checkout your link though. Thanks.

Try Xcode 3.0 - the Apple SDK is beta. It is bound to have issues.

Xcode 3.0 resulted in the same thing. I am pretty sure its not Xcode. Still I resorted to downloading your tarball with the arm-apple-darwin-gcc in it and I can progress which is the main thing... Have now got as far as Hello World...

It is very frustrating though that I can't build my on toolchain as I would like to do the other things such as integrate it will the iPhone SDK etc...
