Subject: [Clfs-dev] CBLFS -- wxWidgets-2.8.9 -- compile problem?
Greets,
Relative to CLFS-1.1.0 x86_64 multilib.....
The 32bit build works fine, but the 64bit (and I'll suspect n32 as well) breaks.
After a bit of dissecting, it appears the configure time switch '--libdir= '
is
somehow causing things to go awry.....
<snip>
Apparently, the '--libdir=/usr/lib64' switch issued at configure time, gets
parsed into the
makefiles as part of variable LDFLAGS , and as this precedes the actual
linktime library
path we want ( -L/usr/local/src/wxWidgets-2.8.9/lib ), ld fails to find the
libraries we're
trying to link 'wxrc' to.....or such and similar.
I don't seem to recall this happening with wxWidget-2.8.8 so perhaps something
has changed?
Not sure if it's me, or something else...nor even how to fix it, but there it
is....
Manually editted the offending LDFLAGS entry from the wxrc makefile and the
problem
goes away.....perhaps someone wiser than myself could look into this one?
-----------------------------------------------
Further to this, after a bit of digging I've discovered this problem is likely
attributed to
the use of the 'Bakefile' utility as used in the wxWidgets-2.8.9 source tree
(bakefile 0.2.3)
According to the changelog for the latest bakefile (0.2.4) ;
(quote) " - put user- or configure-provided LDFLAGS and LIBS to the end of
linker
command line to avoid conflicts of local libraries with system-wide
(#182)"
