Augustin Cavalier b58a151493 build: Link against libgcc_s.so.1 instead of libgcc_s.so. The latter is not just a symlink to the former, but is a small pseudo- library that tells the linker to use the .so.1 version instead. As we do not pass -L to this directory to the linker invocation, the linker thus cannot find it, and so errors out. We rightly do not want the linker doing "magic" things for us that we don't expect, and so even if this one case is fine, we shouldn't allow the linker to take care of this automatically for us when it comes to libroot and other core system functionality, especially as going forward we may indeed add a second libgcc version due to ABI breaks. Instead, link against .so.1 directly. Fixes the build breakage caused by the GCC 7 bump.		2018-08-26 13:35:40 -04:00

Haiku

Homepage | Mailing Lists | IRC Channels | Issue Tracker | API docs

Haiku is an open-source operating system that specifically targets personal computing. Inspired by the BeOS, Haiku is fast, simple to use, easy to learn and yet very powerful.

Goals

Sensible defaults with minimal configuration required.
Clean, clear, concise code.
Unified desktop environment.

Trying Haiku

Haiku provides pre-built nightly images and release images. Haiku is compatible with a large variety of hardware, but in case you don't want to "take the plunge" and install Haiku on bare metal, you can install it on a virtual machine (VM) instead. If you've never used a VM before, you can follow one of the "Emulating Haiku" guides.

Compiling Haiku

See ReadMe.Compiling.

Contributing

Haiku is a meritocratic open source project with a large variety of tasks. Even if you can't write code, you can still help! Haiku needs designers, (technical) writers, translators, testers... Get involved and help out!
