Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Alexander Belopolsky (belopolsky) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Problem linking to readline lib on x86(64) Solaris Initial Comment: Configuring with ./configure --with-gcc="gcc -m64 -L/usr/sfw/lib/64 -R/usr/sfw/lib/64" where 64bit libreadline is found in /usr/sfw/lib/64, configure script fails to realize that readline lib is present. I was able to fix the problem by editing config script manually as follows: $ diff configure~ configure 20744c20744 < if test "$ac_cv_have_readline_readline" = no --- > if test "$ac_cv_lib_readline_readline" = no 20747c20747 < echo "$as_me:$LINENO: checking for readline in -ltermcap" >&5 --- > echo "$as_me:$LINENO: checking for readline in -lreadline -ltermcap" >&5 20753c20753 < LIBS="-ltermcap $LIBS" --- > LIBS="-lreadline -ltermcap $LIBS" A proper fix would be to change configure.in, but I don't know enough about autoconf to submit a proper patch. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Alexander Belopolsky (belopolsky) Date: 2007-03-08 17:25 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=835142 Originator: YES Can you explain how to edit Module/Setup to solve this problem? Note that the problem that I see comes before modules are built. In fact it comes even before make. In any case, I think the check for $ac_cv_have_readline_readline" = no instead of "$ac_cv_lib_readline_readline" = no looks like a typo in configure.in. And looking for readline in libtermcap does not look like sound logic either. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Martin v.
