I've tracked this down to libtool replacing '-lstdc++' with an explicit reference to '/usr/lib/libstdc++.so' before it runs ld. So it's libtool not ld at fault here. I did look at the recipe for Berkeley db and spotted that it overrides do_configure, allowing the shipped copies of libtool and related files to be used rather than running the autoreconf stuff that replaces them. That's my understanding at least. At that point I ran away and reverted the commit in question locally as libtool terrifies me and I don't need the c++ bindings myself! Sorry I can't be more help but I hope that points someone in the right direction. -- Paul Barker Email: p...@paulbarker.me.uk http://www.paulbarker.me.uk _______________________________________________ Openembedded-core mailing list Openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org http://lists.openembedded.org/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-core
