<span lang="EN-US">Thank you very much for the quick reply. After reading your comments and considering that some of the contributors of the mailing list succeeded in the compilation of qe5.1 using gcc 4.8.5, I tried to test additional compilations using this
compiler (gcc 4.8.5). Although the make pw lasted longer than when using the default gcc 7.4.0, the compilation is interrupted and a different error appeared this time:
