I am on macOS Catalina and trying to install GCC by following the instructions here:
https://solarianprogrammer.com/2019/10/12/compiling-gcc-macos/
Everything seems to work fine until I try to configure. Then I get the following:
configure: error: cannot run C compiled programs.
If you meant to cross compile, use `--host'.
See `config.log' for more details
While trying to fix this I found the following:
MacOS "configure: error: cannot run C compiled programs"
However this answer requires going to the following directory:
/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools
The problem is I do not have CommandLineTools in /Library/Developer/ not even as a hidden file. Trying to fix this I found this
How to compile GCC on macOS Catalina?
but there is now answer here and I do not have nix and don't want to mess with it as it appears to not be very compatible with macOS Catalina. So the question is how can I run the configure?
Install GCC on MacOS
learn from above vedio,i use macOX 11.1, install gcc and g++ step:
"brew install gcc", after that, check install success by: "brew info gcc".
"cd /usr/local/bin"
"ls | grep 'gcc'" should see the gcc version you install before, like: gcc-10 or g++-10.
"ln -s gcc-10 gcc" make a symlink from your gcc version to gcc.
close terminal, and open again, input "gcc -v", should see it use gcc now.
If still use clang:
make sure you logout and login again.
use "where gcc" or "which gcc" to check your gcc symlink create success.
"echo $PATH", make sure "/usr/local/bin" show before "/usr/bin" on your PATH, if not, change it on your ~/.zshrc or ~/.bashrc
First you need to install the Command-Line tools.
$ xcode-select --install
Then you probably want to install the headers from a specific .pkg in Terminal:
$ open /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/Packages/macOS_SDK_headers_for_macOS_10.14.pkg
(yours is 10.15, so):
$ open /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/Packages/macOS_SDK_headers_for_macOS_10.15.pkg
After finishing the installation you should have the headers you need to compile with your GCC.
Probably not the elegant answer, but it worked. I was able to find the header files needed using $(xcrun --show-sdk-path) I then copied them all to /usr/local where the gcc location was expecting them to be. Now all works.

I try to install a fortran compiler on my Mojave system thanks to the command
brew install gcc
Unfortunately, I have this error message
The directory that should contain system headers does not exist:
/usr/include
I found out that I had to install the latest update of the Command Line Tools, which I did and update Xcode to 10.1 but the error remains the same.
I tried to update brew but it said
Error: /usr/local must be writable!
and brew doctor said that my version of Xcode is outdated although I just updated to the 10.1 version
So... any help is appreciated.
Thanks everybody

I found very detailed instructions for compiling GCC by "Paul" at https://solarianprogrammer.com/2017/05/21/compiling-gcc-macos/
In particular this step will address your problem:
macOS Mojave changed the location of the system headers, this broke
the GCC 8 build process. In order to build GCC install the required
header files in the old location:
cd /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/Packages/
open .
Update the permissions using:
sudo chown -R /usr/local/* /usr/local/.git; brew update
When I run make in the Terminal I get the following error:
gfortran: warning: couldn’t understand kern.osversion ‘15.6.0
gfortran -O1 -I.. -DFLUSH -c ../aocn2.f90
Any ideas on how to install fortran for macOS?
IMHO, the easiest way to install Fortran under macOS/OSX is via homebrew.
First, go to App Store and install Apple's Xcode. You can get to App Store by typing ⌘space and starting to type App Store and then hit Enter/Return once it guesses correctly. Xcode looks like this:
Then start a Terminal, using ⌘space Terminal Enter/Return and do the rest in Terminal.
Install the "Xcode command line tools":
xcode-select --install
Then install homebrew by going to homebrew website and copying and pasting the one-liner there.
Then install GCC ("GNU Compiler Collection") which includes gfortran:
brew install gcc
You will need to set your PATH to include /usr/local/bin which is where homebrew installs programs:
export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH
You can now run:
gfortran someFile.for
I have a problem with GCC. I want to update it to a new version, from the 4.2.1, to program with parallel programming. However, in this version there is no library . How can I download an updated version?
The error that the terminal give me is:
omp_hello.c:11:10: fatal error: 'omp.h' file not found
#include <omp.h>
^
1 error generated.
download gcc-4.9-bin.tar.gz download or newer from
http://hpc.sourceforge.net/:
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/hpc/gcc-4.9-bin.tar.gz
cd to your downloads folder and un-gzip
the archive gunzip gcc-4.9-bin.tar.gz (Google Chrome would do that
automatically)
in the same folder run sudo tar -xvf gcc-4.9-bin.tar -C / - this will place new executable to /usr/local/bin
add the following to ~/.bash_profile: export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH
open new terminal and run which gcc. This should point to /usr/local/bin/gcc
I got this message when I tried to reinstall GCC via Homebrew.
GCC has been built with multilib support. Notably, OpenMP may not work:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=60670
If you need OpenMP support you may want to
brew reinstall gcc --without-multilib
So, if you have Homebrew installed, you could try (on the terminal):
brew reinstall gcc --without-multilib
This process may take a while !
According to this thread on apple's forums, try using gcc-4.9-bin.tar .
First install the gcc-4.9 and type "xcode-select --install" on your terminal.
Then, use "/usr/local/bin/gcc " as compiler.
I solve it just adding aliases to .bash_profile
# Aliases in order to use brew gcc
alias gcc='gcc-5'
alias cc='gcc-5'
alias g++='g++-5'
alias c++='c++-5'

I installed pkg-config using Homebrew and then I run the following commands:
./autogen.sh
./configure
The configure fails with:
checking how to hardcode library paths into programs... immediate
./configure: line 15263: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'
./configure: line 15263: ` PKG_CHECK_MODULES('
A better solution is:
eval `brew --config | grep HOMEBREW_PREFIX | sed 's/: /=/'`
sudo bash -c 'echo '$HOMEBREW_PREFIX/share/aclocal' >> `aclocal --print-ac-dir`/dirlist'
This will allow the version of aclocal that ships with OSX to find any macros installed by homebrew packages.
With homebrew, the key is the warning message:
~/code/foss/java/jzmq$ brew install pkg-config
==> Downloading http://pkg-config.freedesktop.org/releases/pkg-config-0.25.tar.gz
==> ./configure --disable-debug --prefix=/usr/local/Cellar/pkg-config/0.25 --with-pc-path=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/X11/lib/pkgconfig
==> make install
Warning: m4 macros were installed to "share/aclocal".
Homebrew does not append "/usr/local/share/aclocal"
to "/usr/share/aclocal/dirlist". If an autoconf script you use
requires these m4 macros, you'll need to add this path manually.
==> Summary
/usr/local/Cellar/pkg-config/0.25: 8 files, 232K, built in 19 seconds
If you look at /usr/local/Cellar/pkg-config/0.25/share/aclocal/, you will see:
$ ls /usr/local/Cellar/pkg-config/0.25/share/aclocal/
pkg.m4
You need to append /usr/local/Cellar/pkg-config/0.25/share/aclocal/ to /usr/share/aclocal/dirlist,like this:
$ cat /usr/share/aclocal/dirlist
/usr/local/share/aclocal
/usr/local/Cellar/pkg-config/0.25/share/aclocal/
And then re-run autogen and the other steps.
I made a simple list about jzmq building for MacOS.
Install brew

From the zeromq mailing list:
Building 0MQ from the development
trunk on a UNIX style OS (Linux, OS X)
requires that pkg-config
(http://pkg-config.freedesktop.org/wiki/)
be installed. A regular source build
of 0MQ does not require pkg-config.
On Mac OS X, pkg-config does not come
with the system, so when you try to do
./configure you may see errors like:
./configure: line 23913: syntax error near unexpected token `GLIB,'
./configure: line 23913: `PKG_CHECK_MODULES(GLIB, glib-2.0 gthread-2.0)'
To resolve this, you need to install
the latest pkg-config:
tar xzf pkg-config-0.25.tar.gz
cd pkg-config-0.25
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/pkg-config-0.25 --datarootdir=/usr/share
make
sudo make install
Then you will need to put
/usr/local/pkg-config-0.25/bin on your
$PATH. It is important to include the
"--datarootdir=/usr/share" option,
which will install the pkg.m4 file in
/usr/share/aclocal, where aclocal will
be able to find it.
Then you can build 0MQ:
cd zeromq2
./autogen.sh # must do this again after installing pkg-config
./configure # add other options here
make
sudo make install
Edited to reflect latest pkg-config version (0.25).
I came here with the same question, and I don't feel this is answered. I also installed ZeroMQ and pkg-config via Homebrew. /usr/local/share/aclocal/pkg.m4 exists and comes from pkg-config 0.25. It seems that Homebrew has satisfied the requirements listed but it still fails.
Trying to compile jzmq on Mac OS X, proved to be a bit of a headache. I followed the instructions above. I was still getting following error
syntax error near unexpected token
`PKG_CHECK_MODULES
The instructions above tell you to copy the pkgk.m4 file into /usr/share/aclocal, but your directory might be different. Basically you need the dir that automake searches for macro definitions.
The _PKG_CHECK_MODULES_ macro is defined in the pkg.m4 file. This file must be installed in the appropriate directory, which is searched by automake. Somehow automake is installed twice on my OS X, one in /usr and another in /Developer/usr. Make sure you know which one it's using. Just do which automake. If yours in is /Developer/usr, then copy the pkg.m4 file to /Developer/usr/share/aclocal.
For me, the problem was that I didn't have pkg-config installed.
On Osx Mountain Lion I don't have the dirlist file as Phil Calçado said, but a simple symlink from /usr/local/Cellar/pkg-config/[version]/share/aclocal/pkg.m4 to /usr/share/aclocal made the trick and now jzmq build fine.
I try download lighttpd 1.4.23 source, and compile it on MacOSX 10.5.5.
This is the error I am getting:
$ ./autogen.sh
./autogen.sh: running `libtoolize --copy --force'
./autogen.sh: line 19: libtoolize: command not found
I tried ask the same question on lighttpd forum, but I can't get any help there.
Thanks in advance.
libtoolize is part of GNU libtool, a package for building libraries portably. On the Mac, one option for getting it is to use MacPorts, a package manager which works in a similar fashion as Gentoo and FreeBSD, in that it compiles packages on your machine. See http://www.macports.org/install.php.
Beware, though, that it will be installed as glibtoolize, i.e. with a 'g' prefixed. That is a standard way to make GNU tools live in parallel with UNIX tools of the same name, that might be present (even though there isn't one in this particular case).
The command for installing libtool from MacPorts is: sudo port install libtool
Add a '-d' flag after the 'port' command to see the build output.
Here's what I use to install lighttpd 1.4.25 on Mac OS X 10.6.2. If I remember correctly, the same thing worked for me in a recent version of Mac OS X 10.5.
Install Xcode Developer Tools
Either install them from the DVD that came with your Mac (under Optional Installs) or download them from Apple's developer page.
Install PCRE
curl -O http://softlayer.dl.sourceforge.net/project/pcre/pcre/7.9/pcre-7.9.tar.gz
tar xzf pcre-7.9.tar.gz
cd pcre-7.9
./configure
make && sudo make install
cd ../
Install lighttpd
curl -O http://download.lighttpd.net/lighttpd/releases-1.4.x/lighttpd-1.4.25.tar.gz
tar xzf lighttpd-*.tar.gz
cd lighttpd-*
./configure
make && sudo make install
Note that the URLs above will quickly go out of date; you may need to download the latest versions of the .tar.gz packages from a different location.
