Hi, on my Linux/PPC box (Debian 6.0.5): gcc --print-file-name libgcc_s.so prints:
/usr/lib/gcc/powerpc-linux-gnu/4.4.5/libgcc_s.so This file is a linker script: /* GNU ld script ... not a real ELF library. This breaks the expectation of the gccinstlib.pl script. To workaround this, I have changed my makefile.mk this way: Index: external/gcc3_specific/makefile.mk =================================================================== --- external/gcc3_specific/makefile.mk (revision 1392434) +++ external/gcc3_specific/makefile.mk (working copy) @@ -75,6 +75,10 @@ $(LB)$/libgcc_s.so.$(SHORTSTDC3) : $(GCCINSTLIB) libgcc_s.so.$(SHORTSTDC3) $(LB) +# Workaround Debian 6.0.5/PPC issue where gcc -print-file-name returns +# path of the linker script instead of the path to the library itself +# Maybe this should be fixed in gccinstlib.pl instead. + head -n 1 $(LB)/libgcc_s.so.$(SHORTSTDC3) | grep "GNU ld script" >/dev/null && $(COPY) /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 $(LB)/libgcc_s.so.$(SHORTSTDC3) .ENDIF .ENDIF What do you think about this change? Who knows gcc/linker more than me? -- Pavel Janík
