compiling mprime on linux
 

Is there a readme or guide that describes how to compile 26.5 from source?

Source: [url]ftp://mersenne.org/gimps/source265.zip[/url]

For me it errors out on the make step.

[code]$ pwd
/dev/shm/linux64
$ cd linux64
$ make

[ ! -e ../security.c ] && touch ../security.c || true

Tried moving that file to the specified dir but no joy.

Thoughts and suggestions are welcomed!

cd gwnum
make -f make64
cd ../linux64
make

If you get errors linking to cURL. Try downloading the libcurl sources and follow the instructions in ../linux/makefile for making a libcurl that doesn't drag in a whole bunch of junk

Thanks for the info. I rebuilt curl as per the instructions, then:

[code]$ bsdtar -xf source265.zip
$ cd gwnum
$ make -f make64

cp linux64/gwnum.a .

The complete output of make is on pastebin [url=http://pastebin.com/TLVidj4J]here[/url].

Ideas?

Note, if I use curl that comes with my distro, I get a different set of errors on the make step:

Did you do a "make install" of libcurl?

You'll probably need help from a Linux expert - I'm definitely not one.

Is it possible to build mprime using the system package(s) for libcurl ?
