Hi I am trying to port gnu gettext to a research operating system called mungi, using gettext's autoconf/libtool build environment
however there is no libc.a on this platform as of yet, which up until now has not been a problem, however libtool is explicitly adding -lc to the ld command line when I have tried to do everything possible to stop it. The failure output from the specific section of make is as follows(excuse the masses of compile flags): /bin/sh ../libtool --mode=link mips64-elf-gcc -B/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/build/ -I- -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wnested-externs -Wmissing-declarations -Wredundant-decls -Wshadow -O2 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -nostdinc -ffreestanding -D_DEBUG_ -D_VERBOSE_ -mabi=o64 -mlong64 -G 0 -mno-abicalls -Wa,-non_shared,-G,0,-mabi=o64 -DGCC -D__LANGUAGE_C__ -DL4_BIG_ENDIAN=1 -DSTART_ADDR=0xe00000 -EB -mcpu=r4000 -mips3 -DMUNGI -DARCH=mips -DL4API=v4 -DMUNGI_ARCH=mips_v4_u4600 -DL4API_VERSION=400 -DARCH_MIPS -DARCH_MIPS_V4 -DBIG_ENDIAN -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/. -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/include -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/kernel/include -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/kernel/include/mungi -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/lib/libc/std_include -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/lib/libc/include -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/lib/libc/time -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/lib/libc/posix -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/lib/libc/posix_nonio -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/lib/pax -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/lib/naming -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/lib/interfaces -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/lib/io -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/lib/driver -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/build/mips_v4_u4600 -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/build/mips_v4_u4600/lib/interfaces -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/build/mips_v4_u4600/lib/io -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/platform/mips -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/platform/pistachio -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/../pistachio/user/include -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/platform/pistachio-mips -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/install/include -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/gettext-0.13/gettext-runtime/intl -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/gettext-0.13/gettext-tools/lib -B/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/build/ -EB -L/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/build/mips_v4_u4600 -L/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/pistachio/build/mips-user/lib -L/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/install/lib -o gettext gettext-gettext.o ../lib/libgrt.a ../intl/libintl.la -liconv -lmsys -lmungi -lmplat -lklibc -ll4 mips64-elf-gcc -B/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/build/ -I- -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wnested-externs -Wmissing-declarations -Wredundant-decls -Wshadow -O2 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -nostdinc -ffreestanding -D_DEBUG_ -D_VERBOSE_ -mabi=o64 -mlong64 -G 0 -mno-abicalls -Wa,-non_shared,-G,0,-mabi=o64 -DGCC -D__LANGUAGE_C__ -DL4_BIG_ENDIAN=1 -DSTART_ADDR=0xe00000 -EB -mcpu=r4000 -mips3 -DMUNGI -DARCH=mips -DL4API=v4 -DMUNGI_ARCH=mips_v4_u4600 -DL4API_VERSION=400 -DARCH_MIPS -DARCH_MIPS_V4 -DBIG_ENDIAN -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/. -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/include -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/kernel/include -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/kernel/include/mungi -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/lib/libc/std_include -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/lib/libc/include -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/lib/libc/time -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/lib/libc/posix -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/lib/libc/posix_nonio -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/lib/pax -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/lib/naming -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/lib/interfaces -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/lib/io -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/lib/driver -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/build/mips_v4_u4600 -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/build/mips_v4_u4600/lib/interfaces -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/build/mips_v4_u4600/lib/io -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/platform/mips -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/platform/pistachio -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/../pistachio/user/include -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/platform/pistachio-mips -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/install/include -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/gettext-0.13/gettext-runtime/intl -I/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/gettext-0.13/gettext-tools/lib -B/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/build/ -EB -o gettext gettext-gettext.o -L/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/build/mips_v4_u4600 -L/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/pistachio/build/mips-user/lib -L/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/install/lib ../lib/libgrt.a ../intl/.libs/libintl.a -L/import/eno/1/mwarton/work/Mungi/../pistachio/build/mips-user/lib -lc /import/eno/1/mwarton/work/install/lib/libiconv.a -lmsys -lmungi -lmplat -lklibc -ll4 /home/disy/crossdev/pc.i86.linux/lib/gcc-lib/mips64-elf/3.2/../../../../mips64-elf/bin/ld: cannot find -lc collect2: ld returned 1 exit status as you can see, libtool is not given a -lc on its command line, yet it issues one to ld. In the configure I force the check for needing lc to fail by adding the following line to the config cache: archive_cmds_need_lc=no Which is then properly propogated into the libtool script generated in the directory. I have tried tracing through the generated libtool script, but I cannot see anywhere where -lc is explicitly added, except for one place which is not executed as archive_cmds_need_lc is no, not yes as is needed for the if statement (do a search for -lc and you will see what I mean) Is there something basic I am missing here? Is there another command needed to overide this option?
