Build Failure 0.7.6 on Centos

[pipobscure]

When building on

uname -a

Linux partner 2.6.32-131.17.1.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Oct 6 19:24:09 BST 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I get this error (for a vanilla ./configure)

LINK(target) /root/node-v0.7.6/out/Release/mksnapshot: Finished

make: *** [node] Error 2

This is resolved when doing
./configure --without-snapshot && make

except that afterwards this happens on make install

make install

make -C out BUILDTYPE=Release
make[1]: Entering directory /root/node-v0.7.6/out' make[1]: Nothing to be done forall'.

This is not an issue on OS-X or with 0.7.5 on the same machine.

Duplicate of #2912, let's continue in that issue. I haven't been able to reproduce it myself. Can you post the output of g++ -v?

I have the same problem of phidelta node.js build failed with "pure virtual method called" error!

[bluehost]# g++ -v

Thanks.

@listellodavide It's a gcc bug, either up- or downgrade your compiler or apply the patch from #2912.

Thanks @bnoordhuis for you followup but I have solved downgrading the source code from v0.7.5 to v0.5.17 by following this steps:
wget http://nodejs.org/dist/node-latest.tar.gz
tar zxvf node-latest.tar.gz
cd node-v0.6.17
./configure
make && make install
Thanks
