This looks as if you were trying to create a 64bit version of boxes. Boxes is a 32bit program though, and compiling it for 64bit would take a bit of work on the code first. (You get a lot of pointer size warnings that indicate this problem.)

64bit support is not planned for boxes because its memory footprint is extremely low. Also, you can use 32bit boxes on a 64bit operating system with no problems.

Have you tried installing boxes by simply calling brew install boxes? It might get you a working (32bit) version of boxes without the hassle of compiling yourself.

I have just tried, fails with the same error. I compiled it by hand as 32bit and it works just fine. Thanks!

[tsjensen]

Great, glad it works now!

Can you tell me the settings you added to force 32bit? This might be interesting to other people compiling on OSX. Thanks!

[stefanow]

I added "-m32" to the CFLAGS and LDFLAGS variable in every Makefile

[stefanow]

If it doesn't break anything on 32bit, could you consider adding it by default?

[tsjensen]

Thank you for the information!

Boxes is currently running on over 20 platforms (lately including even some Netgear routers), so I have a hard time finding out if it breaks anything. Maybe we can deduce something from the compiler docs. But I like the idea, and will definitely think about it.

[tsjensen]

For the record, here is the full command line to compile successfully in this case (added to the FAQ a few weeks ago):

make CFLAGS_ADDTL=-m32 LDFLAGS_ADDTL=-m32
