What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
dart svn revision 30973.
cat /etc/*release
CentOS release 6.5 (Final)
LSB_VERSION=base-4.0-ia32:base-4.0-noarch:core-4.0-ia32:core-4.0-noarch:graphics-4.0-ia32:graphics-4.0-noarch:printing-4.0-ia32:printing-4.0-noarch

Please provide any additional information below.

I can't find a complete redhat/centos/Fedora install from source guide in any google search. I'm trying to build from source as I face the gclib 2.15 issue, so pre-built zipped dart-editor for linux fails to run.

I have successfully been able to build the Dart VM on CentOS 6-v20131120 (the version available on Google Compute Engine) using the following commands:

Install Subversion and the required build-tools.
$ sudo yum -y install subversion
$ sudo yum -y install make
$ sudo yum -y install gcc-c++

Get the depot_tools and add them to the path
$ svn co http://src.chromium.org/svn/trunk/tools/depot_tools
$ export PATH=$PATH:pwd/depot_tools

Get the Dart source and generate makefiles
$ gclient config http://dart.googlecode.com/svn/branches/bleeding_edge/deps/all.deps
$ gclient sync
$ gclient runhooks

Build
$ cd dart
$ tools/build.py -mrelease -ax64 runtime

[sgjesse]

Building the SDK require OpenJDK 1.6 as well

$ sudo yum install java-1.6.0-openjdk-devel
$ tools/build.py -mrelease -ax64 create_sdk

Added Area-Infrastructure, OpSys-Linux, NeedsInfo labels.

I followed the procedure to compile on CentOS 6.4

Some open points on my side :

• How to process unit tests ?
  After launching, following command
  $ ./tools/test.py --arch=x64 --runtime=vm
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "./tools/test.py", line 29, in <module>
      sys.exit(Main())
    File "./tools/test.py", line 23, in Main
      exit_code = subprocess.call(command)
    File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/subprocess.py", line 478, in call
      p = Popen(*popenargs, **kwargs)
    File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/subprocess.py", line 642, in init
      errread, errwrite)
    File "/usr/lib64/python2.6/subprocess.py", line 1234, in _execute_child
      raise child_exception
  OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory
• GCC 4.6 seems to be mandatory ? Default CentOS GCC version is 4.4

To drive the tests you are using the dart binary from the repository. You could try copying your local version to that directory and try again (the checked in version is compiled with a never libc version than what you have).
To run the tests copy out/ReleaseX64/dart to tools/testing/bin/linux/dart

At this point, this issue doesn't seem be... about anything specific. Close?
