Breakdancer installation problem or error

[mbu38]

Dear SEQanswer users

Hope you are able to help me with the installation of breakdancer.

I've downloaded version 1.4.5. and used the installation instructions in the INSTALL.md file for installing breakdancer on our linux server/computer

The following commands have been runned after unpacking to my destination folder.

cd /data/mark/tools/breakdancer
mkdir build
cd build

cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=release -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local

Then I get the following:

Anybody know how to solve this problem?

You appear to be using an "aged" version of the GNU compiler. Any chance of using a newer one?

Hi GenoMax

Thanks a lot for your answer. I am new to compilers. The server is using an "older" linux system CENTOS 5 and is apart from research also used for clinical computations. My question is therefore does update of the compiler also require update of the linux system?

best regards

Mark

It may be possible to update the compiler independent of the OS but you should ask your system administrators about that possibility. While you are at it also ask them to compile this software for you :-)
