>Description:
mysql 3.23.49 uses libtool 1.3.5. That version of libtool happens to be broken
on Tru64 4.0F PK3. It fails 17 of 49 tests that come with the libtool package.
libtool 1.4.2 passes all of its tests on this platform. The problem I have
when building mysql 3.23.49 is that libtool does not properly pass the rpath
option when linking binaries (mysql in particular). This results in users
having to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH properly before running the binaries. I'd like
to avoid that. I'm not sure if using libtool 1.4.2 with mysql 3.23.49 would
fix this problem as I'm not enough of a libtool wizard to try testing that.
But I'm hoping that using a newer version of libtool would resolve the mysql
problem.
>How-To-Repeat:
Build mysql 3.23.49 on Tru64 4.0F PK3. I happened to use the following
configure line:
env CC=cc CXX=cxx CFLAGS=-O4 -ifo -pthread -fast -inline all CXXFLAGS=-O4 -pthread
-fast -inline all -noexceptions -nortti ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql
--enable-large-files --with-named-thread-libs=-lpthread -lexc
--enable-thread-safe-client --with-mysqld-user=mysql --with-extra-charset=complex
--with-innodb --with-berkely-db
Then install mysql as normal. Then run mysql. You'll get this error:
long@robin[6:39pm]/homeb/long/src/mysql-3.23.49 > mysql
5924:/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql: /sbin/loader: Fatal Error: cannot map
libmysqlclient.so
>Fix:
Switch to using libtool 1.4.2 for building mysql from source. Unknown whether
this would actually solve the problem I'm seeing but at least libtool 1.4.2
passes its own tests on this platform.
