I searched solutions for the installation errors of the DAOSPEC package, which led me to this forum.

I pasted the Makefile :

At the beginning, I could not find libcompat.a in my laptop, so I downloaded one from somewhere (this one might not suitable to my os). For other dependencies, I compiled supermongo v2.4.26 sucessfully, and IRAF 64 bit version is installed via the eso/scisoft package. After I type 'make daospec' in the terminal, error messages appeared :

------------------------------------------

I was stopped by this mess for a few days. Sincerely hope that someone could help me!

Many thanks !

Try adding a "-lxcb" to the HOSTLIBS definition in your Makefile, or even better would be following the inclusion of the /usr/lib64/libX11.a on the command for daospec specifically.

Note also that the libcompat.a isn't strictly required, this was an old solution to solve a compiler version issue but if you take it out and see different missing symbols just put it back.

Thank you for your hints. I finally compiled daospec by replacing /usr/lib64/libX11.a with -lX11. Another error occurred when running daospec in the terminal. No matter how much is the MXSPEC (maximum is 1,200,000), a segmentation fault happens all the time, and a notification of missing of a specific font is appeared. I tried to run daospec in both bash terminal and xgterm, these errors are still there. I am quire weird!

Unfortunately I don't have DAOSPEC available and am not familiar with it beyond what Google might have to say, e.g. this is mentioned a few places in the "Cooking with DAOSPEC" doc (Google "daospec segmentation fault" to find it).

Typically the way to debug this is to run it under a debugger like GDB and getting a stack trace. If this reveals the error is in one of the IRAF libraries then it may be that DAOSPEC itself doesn't fully support 64-bit platforms and compiling it as a 32-bit binary by adding "-m32" to the compiler flags and linking in the iraf libraries from the 32-bit system (note doing so may mean you need to install 32-bit X11 libs on the system as well). If you do this then see also http://stackoverflow.com/questions/30539059/error-compiling-32-bit-on-64-bit-ubuntu-compatibility-issue-with-libgcc-s-32-so
