It's expected that each library will have its own dependencies recorded so that we only record direct dependencies in the dynamic table. In your case, since libmylib.so has references to libmyplugin.so, there should be a DT_NEEDED entry in libmylib.so for libmyplugin.so. If you link libmylib.so with -L. -lmyplugin, it should work. -cary -- Configure bugmail: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ bug-binutils mailing list bug-binutils@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-binutils
