gEDA-user: Icarus Verilog: Need for --enable-vvp32 in x86_64 ./configure call?

[Günter Dannoritzer <dannoritzer@xxxxxx>]

Hi,

I compiled the recent snapshot on my openSuse 10.2 x86_64 system and
recognized that by default, when running ./configure, it does not
compile with vvp32 support.

When I analyzed the verilog.spec file from the latest snapshot rpm, then
it calls ./configure with the --enable-vvp32 flag.

My question is now, what is the vvp32 used for on the x86_64 platform?
Is it really needed for the rpm?


I am trying to build a rpm from the current Icarus Verilog snapshot. I
know that there exists one for the stable version and that for the
development snapshots there exists a x86_64 version on the icarus.com
ftp server.

The reasons I still want to build one is for one I would like to run the
builds with the opensuse build system. In fact I was able to run the
i586 version successful for (open)Suse 10.0, 10.1, and 10.2.

The other reason to do it is that I want to add a cosimulation .vpi for
myhdl to the rpm package. This will allow to run cosimulation with myhdl
and Icarus by just installing the two respective rpms.


Thanks for the help.

Cheers,

Guenter
