Comment on attachment 197644 [details] patch Same reply as bug#231835
I am working on updating cad/gmsh to version 4. I think the work is mostly done, but there is one blocking problem. https://gitlab.onelab.info/gmsh/gmsh/issues/451 I hope to submit a review with this fix soon and hopefully you can test the build on powerpc64, since I don't have any powerpc hardware.
Update: I have to get approval to commit an update to science/cgnslib before the update to cad/gmsh. https://reviews.freebsd.org/D17432
(In reply to Joseph Mingrone from comment #3) Now that science/cgnslib has been committed, is this PR unblocked?
I committed the new cad/gmsh. I am still hoping someone with powerpc64 hardware can test the build with the new version.
(In reply to Joseph Mingrone from comment #5) Still doesn't build with base GCC. I'd be actually surprised if upstream returned to being compatible with GCC 4.2 in new release :)

The build progresses much further with this fix (so it's necessary), but it's not fixed (it was with previous version). It fails at including immintrin.h, I'll come up with another fix.
