I just tried to install the lang/erlang port on my freebsd 7.0 box. It failed with a linker error while building the "beam" binary.
cc -o path/to/beam \ -L/usr/local/lib -Wl,-export-dynamic \ ... lots of .o files ... \ -lethread -lpthread -lerts_internal_r /usr/lib/libpthread.a(thr_sig.o)(.text+0x1c0): In function `_sigaction': : multiple definition of `_sigaction' obj/i386-unknown-freebsd7.0/opt/plain/hipe_x86_signal.o(.text+0x0): first defined here /usr/bin/ld: Warning: size of symbol `_sigaction' changed from 155 in obj/i386-unknown-freebsd7.0/opt/plain/hipe_x86_signal.o to 55 in /usr/lib/libpthread.a(thr_sig.o) So, hipe_x86_signal.c is redefining sigaction(). I looked briefly at this file, and it *appears* that this should only happen for glibc-based compiles or solaris builds, but the ifdef nest is somewhat complicated, so I'm by no means sure. After figuring out how to add --disable-hipe to the configure arguments, "make build" completes successfully. Am I missing something obvious here? Should I have been able to build with the hipe extensions or is this an error in the port makefiles? Dale. _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
