Re: [IBMiOSS] gmake: *** virtual memory exhausted. Stop.

OK so I have ibmichroot - but what is the next step to creating an IFS
container to play with?

The next best thing would be to start setting up your own ibmichroot
environments on your own machine. The beauty of chroot environments is
they only operate on what has been copied into them. That's why I call
them "IFS Containers". So basically I start with a base chroot environment
and then install gmake and see if it works. If it does then you know
something in the base of PASE is causing gmake to not work.

Opinion: You'd need to do this anyway for anything you run on IBM i so you
can keep production workloads separated from PTF upgrades.

Hi Aaron

Thanks - that would be a useful workaround, but I was really only
using hiredis as an example of many things that I cannot
install/build. It is a dependency of a package called busmq, but that
has several other deps that fail in the same way. I really need a
proper local solution (hence getting IBM to look).

From what I can gather it is a bug that was around in version 3.80
where it is trying to evaluate a string (of c files) that is/are too

long.

That said, even if I do "gmake -v" it outputs the same error but still
continues to work:

gmake -v
gmake: *** virtual memory exhausted. Stop.
