Compile error

[neverfox]

I'm getting a compile error:

mkdir -p build
/usr/local/bin/gcc-8 -fopenmp build/unittest.o build/io.o build/malloc.o build/random.o build/util.o build/SFMT.o build/version.o   -o build/unittest
collect2: fatal error: /usr/local/bin/gnm returned 1 exit status
compilation terminated.
make: *** [Makefile:139: build/unittest] Error 1
make: *** Deleting file 'build/unittest'

Here's my ./config result:

This seems to be a Mac OS X system.

Trying to find a C compiler...

- /usr/local/bin/gcc-8           gcc 8.2.0            looks good
- /usr/bin/cc                    clang 10.0.0         looks good
- /usr/bin/clang                 clang 10.0.0         looks good
- /usr/bin/gcc                   clang 10.0.0         looks good

I will use /usr/local/bin/gcc-8, which seems to be gcc version 8.2.0.
You can override it with the --cc flag.

Trying to find a Python interpreter...
I will try to run the test script src/test.py

- /Users/neverfox/.local/share/virtualenvs/types-o1eglJ5u/bin/python Python 2.7.15        looks good

- /usr/bin/python2.7             Python 2.7.10        looks good

I will use /Users/neverfox/.local/share/virtualenvs/types-o1eglJ5u/bin/python, which seems to be Python version 2.7.15.
You can override it with the --python flag.

If you are using Homebrew, could you please try:

brew rm binutils

Apparently gcc from Homebrew fails to compile anything if binutils is installed. Here is more information on the problem:

• gnm (binutils) fails on Mojave (and breaks gcc-8) Homebrew/homebrew-core#32516
• https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23728

@suomela Thanks! That did it. (And it turned out nothing installed was using binutils as a dependency either).

Great!
