Hello, I am having a compiler error when trying to build the MySQLdb python library on my Beaglebone. MySQL and other programs all build correctly. Only this particular library is having the issue.
Here is the Python MySQLdb library source I want to use: http://sourceforge.net/projects/mysql-python/ I am using the default Angstrom distribution on a Beaglebone A6 board (June 2012 build). So far it is working flawlessly with everything else I need. Kudos to the development team for such an excellent distribution. Here is the sequence that leads up to the error. I have searched all over for a solution and it is eluding me: root@beaglebone:~/MySQL-python-1.2.3# export C_INCLUDE_PATH=/usr/include root@beaglebone:~/MySQL-python-1.2.3# python setup.py build running build running build_py copying MySQLdb/release.py -> build/lib.linux-armv7l-2.7/MySQLdb running build_ext building '_mysql' extension arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-gcc -march=armv7-a -fno-tree-vectorize -mthumb-interwork -mfloat-abi=softfp -mfpu=neon -mtune=cortex-a8 -D__SOFTFP__ --sysroot=/OE/angstrom-v2012-05/build/tmp-angstrom_v2012_05-eglibc/sysroots/beaglebone -fno-strict-aliasing -O2 -pipe -g -feliminate-unused-debug-types -DNDEBUG -g -O3 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -fPIC -Dversion_info=(1,2,3,'final',0) -D__version__=1.2.3 -I/usr/local/mysql/include/mysql -I/usr/include/python2.7 -c _mysql.c -o build/temp.linux-armv7l-2.7/_mysql.o In file included from _mysql.c:36:0: /usr/local/mysql/include/mysql/my_config.h:1066:0: warning: "SIZEOF_OFF_T" redefined /usr/include/python2.7/pyconfig.h:998:0: note: this is the location of the previous definition arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-gcc -march=armv7-a -fno-tree-vectorize -mthumb-interwork -mfloat-abi=softfp -mfpu=neon -mtune=cortex-a8 -D__SOFTFP__ --sysroot=/OE/angstrom-v2012-05/build/tmp-angstrom_v2012_05-eglibc/sysroots/beaglebone -shared -Wl,-O1 -Wl,--hash-style=gnu -Wl,--as-needed build/temp.linux-armv7l-2.7/_mysql.o /usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient_r.a -L/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql -L/usr/lib -lmysqlclient_r -lz -lpthread -lcrypt -lnsl -lm -lpthread -lpython2.7 -o build/lib.linux-armv7l-2.7/_mysql.so /usr/lib/gcc/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/4.5.4/../../../../arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/bin/ld: this linker was not configured to use sysroots collect2: ld returned 1 exit status error: command 'arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-gcc' failed with exit status 1 root@beaglebone:~/MySQL-python-1.2.3# I see a similar issue for the Ubuntu distribution here but am hoping someone on the list will have a workaround for Angstrom: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/armel-cross-toolchain-base/+bug/692987 I am hoping that this is something simple to get cleared up. I have been banging my head trying to get this to work with various combinations but have had no luck so far. It's interesting that I can build the entire MySQL package from sources with no problems but this simple library is having the issue. I appreciate any help. Thanks! _______________________________________________ Angstrom-distro-users mailing list Angstrom-distro-users@linuxtogo.org http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/angstrom-distro-users
