[cfarm-announces] New Arm Morello SoC machine: cfarm240

[Paul Zimmermann]

       Hi,

gmp 6.3.0 does not compile on this machine:

zimmerma at cfarm240:~/gmp-6.3.0 $ ./configure
checking build system type... Invalid configuration 'aarch64c-unknown-freebsd14.0': machine 'aarch64c-unknown' not recognized
configure: error: /bin/sh ./config.sub aarch64c-unknown-freebsd14.0 failed

Should I try a specific ABI?

Paul
