Title: DKMS modules fail to install
Post by: CustomerServiceRobot on 06 March 2018, 22:54:16
linux & linux-headers version: 4.15.7-1
dkms version: 2.5-1
Laptop Model: Dell Inspirion 5566

I have attempted to install several dkms packages, both of which result in a "Bad return status" error. The make.log contents for both of these packages is shown below.

Try updating the repositories and re-installing gcc, perhaps libelf too:
Code: [Select]
% sudo pacman -Syy gcc libelf

You might care to check "base-devel" package list as this should have all the build packages needed.

Nope. The modules still don't install. I have all base-devel packages installed.

Does compilation under normal user works just fine ?
If yes, check the paths which is gcc using under root and your user and compare them.
Try to compile some hello world program with gcc with '-v' option.

There was also mentioned to check if the 'cc1' file exist and if it is not empty.

I have this idea from network, I don't remember exact page.

I reported the issue here (https://github.com/openrazer/openrazer/issues/538) thinking it was openrazer specific. gcc does appear to be installed correctly since I was able to create a "hello world" program. There was an MPFR warning from cc1 output, but I don't know what to make of it.
