FWIW;
This is likely to have positive effects on the FreeBSD
port. Maho had a change in order to build vcl (attached)
that I was afraid to commit previously.
No idea if it still applies or is required.
It should still be possible to apply the patch, but now there may be a
more elegant way to do it. However, I would need more information to
say for sure (what are the actual build problems?).
Maybe you or Maho can try to build vcl with my changes? If it still
does not work or shows new problems then maybe I can help (at least I am
willing to try :-)

I have submitted issue 118769 for
this bug [1], and fixed it by changing
the order in which libraries and object files are listed on
the gbuild
linker command line. I do not expect problems with
this approach,
because the modified order is the same one that is used by
the dmake
build system. Although the actual changes may still
contain errors: I
tested them on Linux, Windows, and MacOSX but not on
Solaris, OS/2, or
Windows/Cygwin.
Please see the issue comments for more details.
If somebody points out to me the proper place in the Wiki
then I will
document my changes of the gbuild system. I have yet
to find
documentation about its inner workings. So far I have
only found
information on how to use it.
Regards,
Andre

Hi all,
I ran into a problem with a Linux build. On Ubuntu
(both 32bit and
64bit) linking of comphelper failed
with a lot of unresolved references. With the help of
Herbert I could
solve this by using a different linker.
Instead of ld.bfd I used ld.gold and could build
comphelper and the rest
of OpenOffice.
On Fedora this seems to work out of the box.
I am now working on CoinMP (the lp_solve replacement).
It builds without
problems on Windows and
Mac but has linker errors on Linux. Eventually I found
that going back
to ld.bfd solved this problem.
Has anybody else experienced problems with the
linker?
Does anybody on this list have a deeper understanding
of the Linux
linkers and can explain
what is going on and how to better solve it?
Any help is much appreciated.
Andre
