Hi,all
I referred to Martin's method in " Walkthrough: Installation of OpenFOAM-1.6-ext on openSUSE 12.2 64-bit", there is a question about how to do a hotfix through git. As he says:
# apply the hotfix for gcc4.7 by Philippose Rajan
git branch hotfix/gcc47
git checkout hotfix/gcc47

I just don't know how to do it . So this time I ignored this problem and went on. The ThirdParty was installed with no error. While in the Allmake stage when compiling OpenFOAM-1.6-ext, some errors occured:

r/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.7/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ld: cannot find -ldynamicMesh
/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.7/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ld: cannot find -lmeshTools
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [/home/huangxian/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.6-ext/lib/linux64Gcc47DPOpt/libfaceDecompositionMotionSolver.so] Error 1

and

r/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.7/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ld: cannot find -ltriSurface
/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.7/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ld: cannot find -lmeshTools

/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.7/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ld: cannot find -lfaceDecompositionMotionSolver

/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.7/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ld: cannot find -lmesquiteMotionSolver
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

Many similar errors as above. I suppose the reason is the previous step hotfix of Gcc47 undo. Can anybody give me some advise to git a hotfix as the author says?

[huangxianbei]

while I have made a new installation including hotfix, but the errors still exist. I have no idea how to fix this problem..

Is there anyone can help?

[huangxianbei]

I checked the log file and find

wmakeLnInclude: linking include files to ./lnInclude
/bin/sh: /home/huangxian/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.6-ext/wmake/bin/linux64Gcc47/wmkdep: No such file or directory
/bin/sh: /home/huangxian/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.6-ext/wmake/bin/linux64Gcc47/wmkdep: No such file or directory
/bin/sh: /home/huangxian/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.6-ext/wmake/bin/linux64Gcc47/wmkdep: No such file or directory

So I think the problem is related to Gcc47. But I have no idea of that.

Greetings Huang Xianbei,

I believe that you're referring to this thread: http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ope...-2-64-bit.html
That thread was written a long time ago and some details have changed since then. One of the details is that the "hotfix" is already implemented. Therefore, this block of code:

git clone git://openfoam-extend.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/openfoam-extend/OpenFOAM-1.6-ext

# apply the hotfix for gcc4.7 by Philippose Rajan
git branch hotfix/gcc47
git checkout hotfix/gcc47

Should now be:

git clone git://git.code.sf.net/p/openfoam-extend/OpenFOAM-1.6-ext

cd OpenFOAM-1.6-ext
git checkout 1.6.1 -b 16ext

If by any chance, you did not use git to download OpenFOAM 1.6-ext, then please indicate what exacts steps you've taken to download it.

Best regards,
Bruno

Hi,Bruno
Thank you very much. At the first time, I used the 1.6-ext downloaded somewhere else which was stored in my computer. So the hotfix doesn't work(I think). After that, the installation is not succeed . Then I took a new installation with git downloading. As you say the hotfix has changed, I saw nothing happened when following the old instruction. I'll try the new way your suggested.
Thanks again

Hi, Bruno
The link seems doesn't work.

git clone git://git.code.sf.net/p/openfoam-extend/OpenFOAM-1.6-ext openfoam-extend-OpenFOAM-1.6-ext

Here is the link I can find and download

Hi Huang,

Sorry, I forgot to give you a link yesterday that had several "git clone" places from which you can download: http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/In...u#Ubuntu_13.10 - have a look into step #5

Best regards,
Bruno

Hi,Bruno:
Thank you. But the error still exists. So I turned to install 2.1.1 instead, just as you suggested in another thread.
