如何在ARM64 CPU (aarch64)上安装bison 2.4.1？

Question

我已经在我的Ubuntu 16.0.4 linux on ARM 64板上下载了bison2.4.1。但是，我不能再继续了，我的问题如下：

当我执行./configure cmd时，我收到如下错误消息：

checking for wctype.h... yes
checking for inline... inline
checking whether system is Windows or MSDOS... no
checking build system type... build-aux/config.guess: unable to guess system type

This script, last modified 2008-12-11, has failed to recognize
the operating system you are using. It is advised that you
download the most up to date version of the config scripts from

  http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=config.git;a=blob_plain;f=config.guess;hb=HEAD
and
  http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=config.git;a=blob_plain;f=config.sub;hb=HEAD

If the version you run (build-aux/config.guess) is already up to date, please
send the following data and any information you think might be
pertinent to <config-patches@gnu.org> in order to provide the needed
information to handle your system.

config.guess timestamp = 2008-12-11

由于bison 2.4.1中打包的autotools对64位ARM架构一无所知，因此您需要告诉configure不要费心去猜测机器：

./configure --build=unknown-unknown-linux

我不认为这会造成问题，但我没有办法测试它，因为我没有ARM64板可用(如果有，我也不会在上面安装10年前的野牛版本)。但我确实在我的机器上测试了该配置选项；它配置和构建得很好，然后通过了测试套件中的所有测试。

我认为在bison 2.7中添加了对aarch64的支持，但你最好下载一个不太老的版本，它几乎肯定会默认识别你的构建环境并运行时没有问题。

Bison 3.0.5是上周发布的；您可以从https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/bison/bison-3.0.5.tar.xz下载它
