Building Rosetta Problem: Processor architecture unsupported?

[Anonymous]

Hey, when I try to build Rosetta on my computer it has the following compiling error.
Is there way I can get around this?

The solution is to go to rosetta_source/tools/build/setup_platforms.py and add your processor type under the supported platforms. In your case you will add ‘Dual Core AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 265’ .

I believe your distro (Gentoo?) calls your platorms by a specific name and not by some generic name. They have added some specific processors to that file, but for obvious reasons, it is difficult to put every processor made in that file.
