I am trying to build an old program using IDL6.2 in CentOS7, which was originally built for RHEL3 and runs in RHEL5. However, when I try to make it in CentOS7, I get the error bellow. May that be an compatibility problem? How can I solve it?

Thanks!

/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.8.5/../../../../lib/crt1.o: In function `_start':

  • Have you looked at https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11116399/crt1-o-in-function-start-undefined-reference-to-main-in-linux ? – EdmCoff Jan 18 '19 at 16:23
  • @EdmCoff Yes, I can't find that LINK statement in my makefile. But that raises me a question of whether it appears in the previous versions that work... Monday is coming and I will check that! – Miguel Santos Jan 19 '19 at 16:07
  • @EdmCoff Monday came, I compared the two makefiles and I did not get to a solution... – Miguel Santos Jan 21 '19 at 09:55
  • Are the RHEL systems 32-bit and the CentOS system 64-bit? – EdmCoff Jan 21 '19 at 18:52
  • They were both 64-bit. Nevertheless, I found the problem... It was because of incompatibilities between the versions of Automake (1.13.4 and 1.9.6). Thank you @EdmCoff anyway :) – Miguel Santos Jan 24 '19 at 13:31

Found the root of the problem! Incompatibility of Automake between the versions 1.9 (in RHEL5) and 1.13 in (CentOS7).
