Today I wanted to recompile one of my projects. Compiling this project had already worked on my machine, but this time an error occured.
The compiler output goes:
fatal error: as: unknown host architecture (can't determine which assembler to run)`
for the line:
g++ -c -pipe -O2 -Wall -W -D_REENTRANT -DQT_NO_DEBUG -DQT_GUI_LIB -DQT_CORE_LIB -DQT_SHARED -I/usr/share/qt4/mkspecs/linux-g++ -I../../.vscode -I/usr/include/qt4/QtCore -I/usr/include/qt4/QtGui -I/usr/include/qt4 -I. -I../../.vscode -I. -o Main.o ../../Main.cpp
I tried to compile some other projects, but realized, that I wouldn't be able to compile anything using any c++ compiler, so I looked it up.
The only fitting thread I found was this one but the solution 'reinstalling binutils' didn't work for me (tried sudo apt-get install --reinstall binutils
as well as --reinstall gcc
, g++
and build-essential
)
One possible reason for this problem that comes to my mind is the iOS-toolchain I installed yesterday - I had to install some different clang versions - but I actually didn't change anything on the system's assembler...
If someone's got an idea; any help would be appreciated :)
Additional info:
Ubuntu 16.04 LTS 64bit
AMD FX(tm)-6300 Six-Core Processor × 6
uname -m
returns x86_64
gcc -march=native -v -E - 2>&1 <<<'' | grep "cc1" | egrep -o -e $'-m(arch|tune)=[^ "\']+'
returns -march=bdver2
and -mtune=bdver2
already tried gcc [...] -march
with bdver2
and other architectures
g++ -v -c HelloWorld.cpp
gives me: http://pastebin.com/Ks2be0hL
type -a as
says:

sadly just show's me the error again, but info as
tells me it's binutils-2.26.1-system
from 2016-08-07
dpkg -S /usr/bin/as
prints: binutils: /usr/bin/as
