As seen here, compiling the Android kernel requires a prebuilt GCC toolchain (or the equivalent from the Android NDK). Cross-compilation makes sense; we are compiling code for a device with a different platform.

You need the gcc toolchain for both.

How does a package like ATLAS know which compilers I have installed on my system?
For example, say that I install a local version of gfortran, how do I "register it" in the system so that a package like ATLAS knows that I have it?
|
Like many unix applications, atlas has a configure script that you run as first part of the build process. Atlas' configure script will try to find a fortran compiler by trying known variants. You can also give it a specific path (-Ss f77lib /path/goes/here) or disable the use of fortran altogether (--nof77)

I'm trying to compile a program which requires gettext (for intltools) on macOS. I tried the following commands to run the configure script:

You shouldn't be upgrading your toolchain piecemeal. The parts have to work together. The GNU tools allow so much variation that it is essential that the pieces be set up to work together, especially for a cross-compiler.

This problem stems from the fact that RHEL wants 64-bit libraries to be installed to the /usr/lib64 directory, rather than the default /usr/lib directory.
