Bounty 0.1BTC - compile static build CentOS 5.5 & 6.5 (x32 and x64)

[primer-]

I'm placing a 0.1BTC bounty for 2 static builds of pooler's cpuminer (https://github.com/pooler/cpuminer)

CentOS 5.5 x64
CentOS 6.5 x64

Both servers are deployed with minimal installation packages. You will connect to my server via teamviewer, ssh to the boxes, install dependencies and compile static builds. Screen recording
will be on.

BONUS +0.1BTC : set up mingw on the CentOS6.5 box and compile windows x64 and x86 builds

Payment will be made after work is done.

[liteon]

I will do this for 0.1 BTC as you said.
PM me when you want to do it.

For English speakers out there, is this still open, or has it been claimed in the posts above? If it is open, I am willing to do this.

I've sent liteon credentials and will be following his progress. If it turns out he cant do the work i'll revert the snapshots to clean state and let you take over.

Thanks, could you PM me if that happens, and I don't notice here? I try to monitor threads I've posted to recently using the forum tools but sometimes I don't get a chance to track everything.

Liteon had enough time to connect via teamviewer and begin. He has not done so. New credentials sent to rarkenin

No problem.

I've tried and failed so far, I'll be trying later on. If anyone can solve this and wants to share the bounty, I'll explain the situation:

curl compiles on both versions with --enable-static and --disable-shared, check
openssl compiles on 5.5 as static; 6.5 has an existing openssl-static package that appears to be valid
kerberos compiles on both as static. However, the compilation of cpuminer itself fails. 5.5 can't link to Kerberos, 6.5 can't link to -lcrypto

As a last resort, Statifier might be possible, but it currently has a few disadvantages, so I'm still seeking to obtain a true static build. Specifically, if the goal was performance, then Statifier is not possible as code is still position-independent.

Statifier looks interesting. If you can create the static build on 6.5 and it runs on centos 5.5 that will be good enough for me, whatever the file size ends up to be.

Is it OK if I try that tomorrow afternoon? Unfortunately, I'm going to be busy tonight and tomorrow morning.

Tomorrow afternoon will work, thanks

For a autotools configure try:

> env CFLAGS="[OPT] -m32" CXXFLAGS="[OPT] -m32" \
  ./configure --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu --enable-static [--disable-shared]
where OPT is other compiler flags, e.g., -O2, etc.

The explicit use of -static in $CFLAGS, $CXXFLAGS is probably not doing what you want.
It might be necessary to use: CC="gcc -m32", CXX="g++ -m32" (depending on the compiler) for the required mode to carry through to the link stage.

There is a problem with where those libraries are saved or how those are named, shouldn't be too hard to fix. (the correct path is missing?)

I can give it a try if you want, maybe just adding -L /usr/local/ssl/lib/ will help

I'd like to give liteon a try as he seems to know what hes doing.
Liteon you up for it ? You get the entire bounty if you succeed tonight.

Nah, you denied my 1st attempt, so I will not try anything.
Will let this to someone else.

Ok, no hard feelings, job was awarded to rarkenin as he has been around bitcointalk longer than you.
