[pylucene-dev] pylucene and 2gb limit of files

[Yura Smolsky]

Hello.

Ok, this is a problem.

The PyLucene (2.0.0-1) that I used I was only able to get to compile
with gcc 3.4.6. I tried numerous times to get it to compile with gcc  
4.x.x with no luck.

It seems that there is a gcc 2gb limit size issue with gcj in all 3.x.x
versions and was not fixed until gcc 4.x.

here is a reference
http://lists.osafoundation.org/pipermail/pylucene-dev/2006-March/000933.html

My point is, i dont see how to get PyLucene 2.0.0.-1 and a later 4.x  
version of gcc on a debian or fedora box. I attempted to get this to  
compile for two weeks at the beginning of this month and had no luck.

Im not sure how to handle this.

Maybe there is a patch for gcc 3.x.x about 2gb limit size of files?

Thanks for any advice.
